    Abstract: A method includes identifying a first anchor of a plurality of anchors as an initiator and identifying multiple second anchors of the plurality of anchors as multiple responders, the plurality of anchors located in a service area to be traversed by a robot. The method also includes sending, to the initiator and the responders via a wireless side-link, ranging information and a command to start ultra-wideband (UWB) ranging. The method also includes receiving, from the initiator via the wireless side-link, pair-wise range measurements representing UWB range measurements between the initiator and the responders. The method also includes generating initial location values for the initiator and the responders based on the pair-wise range measurements and one or more geometric constraints imposed on the initiator and the responders. The method also includes estimating 3D coordinates of the initiator and the responders using the initial location values.

    Abstract: An encoding device and methods for point cloud encoding are disclosed. The method for encoding includes generating, using a processor of an encoder, a first frame and a second frame that include patches representing a cluster of points of three-dimensional (3D) point cloud; identifying a patch to segment in the patches of the first frame and the second frame; determining, in response to identifying the patch, a path representing a boundary between segmented regions within the patch; segmenting the patch along the path into two patches for the first frame and the second frame; encoding the first frame and the second frame to generate a compressed bitstream; and transmitting, using a communication interface operably coupled to the processor, the compressed bitstream.
