Abstract
A system comprises an encoder configured to compress and encode data for three-dimensional volumetric content. The encoder also is configured to segment the three-dimensional volumetric content based on viewing areas, wherein different ones of the viewing areas correspond to visible portions of the volumetric content. The system may provide metadata to a client device to support viewport adaptive rendering of the three-dimensional volumetric content or may adaptively stream portions of the three-dimensional volumetric content to a rending device based on viewing areas of the three-dimensional volumetric content that are to be rendered at the rendering device.
