Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for predicting a user field-of-view change and determining transmission regions of immersive video (IV) content for an IV device are presented. A field-of-view change of a user device may be predicted. A transmission region in one or more video frames of the IV content may be determined based on the predicted change.
Claims24
A method comprising:
- determining, by a computing device, a display area of a user device displaying video content comprising a plurality of video frames;
- determining, based on one or more video frames of the plurality of video frames, a predicted change to the display area;
- determining, based on the predicted change to the display area, a subarea of an image area of an upcoming video frame of the plurality of video frames;
- and
- sending, to the user device, the subarea of the upcoming video frame.
2 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
- determine a display area of a user device displaying video content comprising a plurality of video frames;
- determine, based on one or more video frames of the plurality of video frames, a predicted change to the display area;
- determine, based on the predicted change to the display area, a subarea of an image area of an upcoming video frame of the plurality of video frames;
- and
- send, to the user device, the subarea of the upcoming video frame.
4 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause:
- determining a display area of a user device displaying video content comprising a plurality of video frames;
- determining, based on one or more video frames of the plurality of video frames, a predicted change to the display area;
- determining, based on the predicted change to the display area, a subarea of an image area of an upcoming video frame of the plurality of video frames;
- and
- sending, to the user device, the subarea of the upcoming video frame.
