Abstract
A method may include receiving a video stream from a camera and displaying the video stream on a display. The method may further include obtaining, via an eye tracking sensor, information identifying a gaze area for a user watching the display; generating a gradient from the gaze area to edges of the display; and instructing the camera to decrease a bit rate of the video stream outside the gaze area based on the generated gradient.
Claims20
A method, performed by one or more computer devices, the method comprising:
- receiving a video stream from a camera;
- displaying the video stream on a display;
- obtaining, via an eye tracking sensor, information identifying a gaze area for a user watching the display;
- generating a gradient from the gaze area towards edges of the display;
- and
- instructing the camera to decrease a bit rate of the video stream outside the gaze area based on the generated gradient.
3 more elements
A computer device comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
- receive a video stream from a camera;
- display the video stream on a display;
- obtain, via an eye tracking sensor, information identifying a gaze area for a user watching the display;
