Abstract
The techniques and arrangements described herein provide for layered compression of depth image data. In some examples, an encoder may partition depth image data into a most significant bit (MSB) layer and a least significant bit (LSB) layer. The encoder may quantize the MSB layer and generate quantization difference data based at least in part on the quantization of the MSB layer. The encoder may apply the quantization difference data to the LSB layer to generate an adjusted LSB layer.
