A METHOD AND A DEVICE FOR OBTAINING DATA REPRESENTATIVE OF A SCENE FROM A PLURALITY OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL (3D) POINTS REPRESENTING SAID SCENE

A known solution for storing light-field data in a compact format is called Multi-View plus Depth (MVD). A MVD content comprises the different images representing a light-field data, such as the sub-aperture images, and their respective depth map.MVD provides angular information such as a color associated to a point in space depending on the viewing direction along which this point is viewed by a camera.Although MVD conveniently stores light-field data, such a format is not convenient for post-processing operations of light-file data because MVD provides information viewed by a plurality of sensors and is limited in the amount of other data related to the light-field data that can be stored. The disclosure provides a format for storing light-field data having the same advantages as MVD while being able to store data related to the light-filed data more convenient to use with existing post-processing tools.
