Abstract
Delivering pre-rendered holographic content over a network is disclosed. A first camera view segment of a plurality of camera view segments that compose a holographic video is selected. Each camera view segment corresponds to a different camera view perspective of a scene and includes rendered holographic content that depicts a plurality of concurrent different viewer perspectives of the scene. The first camera view segment is streamed toward a holographic display for presentation of the first camera view segment on the holographic display.
Claims20
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that includes executable instructions to cause a processor device to:
- select a first camera view segment of a plurality of camera view segments that compose a holographic video, each camera view segment corresponding to a different camera view perspective of a scene and comprising rendered holographic content that depicts a plurality of concurrent different viewer perspectives of the scene;
- stream the first camera view segment toward a holographic display for presentation of the first camera view segment on the holographic display;
- select, based on user input made at a current time offset of the first camera view segment, a second camera view segment;
- and
- stream, starting at a location of the second camera view segment that corresponds to the current time offset of the first camera view segment, the second camera view segment toward the holographic display for presentation of the second camera view segment on the holographic display.
A computing system comprising:
- a network interface;
- and
- at least one processor device coupled to the network interface and configured to:
- select a first camera view segment of a plurality of camera view segments that compose a holographic video, each camera view segment corresponding to a different camera view perspective of a scene and comprising rendered holographic content that depicts a plurality of concurrent different viewer perspectives of the scene, each camera view segment comprising rendered holographic content that is concurrent in time with the rendered holographic content in each other camera view segment of the plurality of camera view segments;
- and
- stream the first camera view segment toward a holographic display for presentation of the first camera view segment on the holographic display.
A method comprising:
- selecting, by one or more processor devices executing on one or more computing devices, a first camera view segment of a plurality of camera view segments that compose a holographic video, each camera view segment corresponding to a different camera view perspective of a scene and comprising rendered holographic content that depicts a plurality of concurrent different viewer perspectives of the scene, each camera view segment comprising rendered holographic content that is concurrent in time with the rendered holographic content in each other camera view segment of the plurality of camera view segments;
- and
- streaming the first camera view segment toward a holographic display for presentation of the first camera view segment on the holographic display.
