Systems and Methods for Predictive Streaming of Image Data for Spatial Computing

A device comprising:

• one or more hardware processors configured to:
• receive a request to distribute a particular three-dimensional (“3D”) image comprising a plurality of elements to a recipient device;
• determine a classification for the particular 3D image based on one or more objects or scenes represented by the plurality of elements;
• select a particular viewing model from a plurality of viewing models based on the classification, wherein each viewing model of the plurality of viewing models is associated with a different classification and specifies a different order with which to stream elements of a 3D image with the different classification;
• and
• stream the plurality of elements of the particular 3D image to the recipient device in an order specified by the particular viewing model.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing program instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors of a streaming device, cause the streaming device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a request to distribute a particular three-dimensional (“3D”) image comprising a plurality of elements to a recipient device;
• determining a classification for the particular 3D image based on one or more objects or scenes represented by the plurality of elements;
• selecting a particular viewing model from a plurality of viewing models based on the classification, wherein each viewing model of the plurality of viewing models is associated with a different classification and specifies a different order with which to stream elements of a 3D image with the different classification;
• and
• streaming the plurality of elements of the particular 3D image to the recipient device in an order specified by the particular viewing model.
