Abstract
A decoding device, an encoding device and a method for point cloud decoding is disclosed. The method includes receiving a compressed bitstream. The method also includes decoding the compressed bitstream into 2-D frames that represent a 3-D point cloud. Each of the 2-D frames including a set of patches, and each patch includes a cluster of points of the 3-D point cloud. The cluster of points corresponds to an attribute associated with the 3-D point cloud. One patch of the set of patches, the set of patches, and the 2-D frames correspond to respective access levels representing the 3-D point cloud. The method also includes identifying a first and a second flag. In response to identifying the first and the second flag, the method includes reading the metadata from the bitstream. The method further includes generating, based on metadata and using the sets of 2-D frames, the 3-D point cloud.
