Patent attributes
A video coding system (e.g., an encoder and/or a decoder) may perform face-based sub-block motion compensation for 360-degree video to predict samples (e.g., of a sub-block). The video coding system may receive a 360-degree video content. The 360-degree video content may include a current block. The current block may include a plurality of sub-blocks. The system may determine whether a sub-block mode is used for the current block. The system may predict a sample in the current block based on the sub-block level face association. For a first sub-block in the current block, the system may identify a first location of the first sub-block. The system may associate the first sub-block with a first face based on the identified first location of the first sub-block. The system may predict a first sample in the first sub-block based on the first face that is associated with the first sub-block.
