Claim 12:
13. A compression system comprising:
one or more hardware processors configured to:
receive a plurality of point clouds that collectively produce different frames of an animation;
detect a motion involving a set of points from a plurality of points that change between a first point cloud and one or more subsequent point clouds in the plurality of point clouds;
define a transform that generates a shape that tracks the motion across two or more frames of the different frames of the animation; and
generate a compressed animated point cloud from which to recreate the animation by encoding a first frame of the animation with data for the plurality of points of the first point cloud and by defining the two or more frames of the animation that come after the first frame with the transform rather than individual points of the set of points for each frame of the two or more frames.
