Abstract:
An apparatus is arranged to generate a triangle mesh for a three dimensional image. The apparatus includes a depth map source ( 101 ) which provides a depth map and a tree generator ( 105 ) generates a k-D tree from the depth map. The k-D tree representing a hierarchical arrangement of regions of the depth map satisfying a requirement that a depth variation measure for undivided regions is below a threshold. A triangle mesh generator ( 107 ) positions an internal vertex within each region of the k-D tree. The triangle mesh is then generated by forming sides of triangles of the triangle mesh as lines between internal vertices of neighboring regions. The approach may generate an improved triangle mesh that is suitable for many 3D video processing algorithms.

Claim (Index 9):
The apparatus of  claim 1 ,\n wherein the tree generator is part of a transmitter circuit, wherein the triangle mesh generator circuit is part of a receiver circuit, wherein the transmitter circuit is arranged to generate an image data stream representing the three dimensional image and to encode the k-D tree in the image data stream, wherein the receiver circuit ( 1203 ) is arranged to extract the k-D tree from the image data stream and provide the k-D tree to the triangle mesh generator circuit.
