Data Compression for 6 Degrees of Freedom Virtual Reality Applications

Tech Paper 2022: This paper presents a novel point cloud compression method to enable real-time 6DoF VR experiences on consumer devices, reducing the high data demands of immersive VR content.

Abstract

6 Degrees of Freedom (DoF) are used in Virtual Reality (VR) applications to enhance the user experience compared to the standard 3DoF solutions. Due to its sparse nature, 6DoF information is typically represented in a point cloud form, where each element describes the position of a point in the 3D space, as well as its attributes (e.g., colour and transparency). Although it enhances user experience, 6 DoF requires a higher volume of data compared to 3DoF, which has made content distribution challenging and has also limited its applications to high-end specialised machines.
