Summary:

The development of systematic scanning of 3D objects (conservation of national heritage, reverse engineering, integration of real objects in virtual reality environments) resulted in a dizzy increase in the volume of data to be processed, as well as the emergence of many methods of 3D models' reconstruction and compression. The volume of processed data is found burdened by taking into relatively recent account of temporal aspect which is not always easy to integrate in the static approaches. When we are interesting in the codage and transmission of mesh, consider the algorithms that permitted to generate it, can be an important factor at the time of storing and transmitting the produced result by minimizing the required space. We want to exploit this property in the case of surfaces in motion, first by passing the best possible integration between encoding and reconstruction, but also using reconstruction as a tool of transformation. Another goal of this project consists in adapting to structured flow input data (streaming).
