Three-dimensional data encoding method, three-dimensional data decoding method, three-dimensional data encoding device, and three-dimensional data decoding device
A three-dimensional data encoding method includes: generating combined point cloud data by combining pieces of point cloud data; and generating a bitstream by encoding the combined point cloud data. The bitstream includes (i) first information indicating a maximum number of duplicated points that are included in each of the pieces of point cloud data and are three-dimensional points having same geometry information, and (ii) pieces of second information corresponding one-to-one with point indexes and each indicating which of the pieces of point cloud data three-dimensional points having a corresponding one of the point indexes belong to, the point indexes being indexes to which values a total number of which is equal to the maximum number are assigned, and being used for identifying duplicated points belonging to same point cloud data.
1. A method for storing three-dimensional data, the method comprising:
acquiring one or more units in which an encoded data generated by encoding three-dimensional data is stored; and
storing the one or more units into a file, wherein
the encoded data includes a frame that is point cloud frame data and includes a plurality of subframes each of which is sub point cloud frame data, and
the encoded data includes first metadata including time information for each of the plurality of subframes.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the encoded data includes common information for the plurality of subframes, and
the time information for each of the plurality of subframes is stored in the common information.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the encoded data includes a common parameter set for the plurality of subframes, and
the time information for each of the plurality of subframes is stored in the common parameter set.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the time information is a timestamp for each of the plurality of subframes.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the time information indicates a generation time, an encoding time, or a decoding time of the subframes.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the encoded data includes second metadata including sensor information for acquiring the data of the plurality of subframes.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the file is in conformity with ISO Based Media File Format (ISOBMFF).
8. A device for storing three-dimensional data, the device comprising:
a processor; and
memory,
wherein, using the memory, the processor:
acquires one or more units in which an encoded data generated by encoding three-dimensional data is stored; and
stores the one or more units into a file, wherein
the encoded data includes a frame that is point cloud frame data and includes a plurality of subframes each of which is sub point cloud frame data, and
the encoded data includes first metadata including time information for each of the plurality of subframes.
