Systems and methods for digitally representing a scene with multi-faceted primitives
Abstract:
Disclosed is a system and associated methods for generating and rendering a polyhedral point cloud that represents a scene with multi-faceted primitives. Each multi-faceted primitive stores multiple sets of values that represent different non-positional characteristics that are associated with a particular point in the scene from different angles. For instance, the system generates a multi-faceted primitive for a particular point of the scene that is captured in first capture from a first position and a second capture from a different second position. Generating the multi-faceted primitive includes defining a first facet with a first surface normal oriented towards the first position and first non-positional values based on descriptive characteristics of the particular point in the first capture, and defining a second facet with a second surface normal orientated towards the second position and second non-positional values based on different descriptive characteristics of the particular point in the second capture.
