System architecture and methods for composing and directing participant experiences

A system for composing and directing multi-dimensional participant experiences, the system facilitated via a low-latency transmission protocol and sentio codecs for encoding and decoding multi-dimensional data streams, the system provided by a service provider for use by an experience provider, the system comprising:

• an experience server in communication with a plurality of devices, the experience server including:
• a experience agent, the experience agent including a API and a sentio codec;
• and
• an experience composition engine;
• a content server in communication with the experience server and operable to provide a content layer to the experience composition engine associated with the sentio codec;
• and
• wherein, the experience composition engine is operable to:
• receive one or more layers from the content server and the plurality of devices;
• and compose and direct the layers into a participant experience to be presented on at least one of the plurality of devices.

A system for composing and directing multi-dimensional participant experiences, the system facilitated via a low-latency transmission protocol and sentio codecs for encoding and decoding multi-dimensional data streams, the system provided by a service provider for use by an experience provider, the system comprising:

• an experience server in communication with a plurality of heterogeneous devices via a network, the experience server including:
• a experience agent, the experience agent including a API and a sentio codec;
• and
• an experience composition engine;
• a content server in communication with the experience server and operable to provide a content layer to the experience composition engine;
• and
• wherein, the experience composition engine is operable to:
• receive layers from the content server and the plurality of devices;
• request services from other devices via the experience agent, wherein at least one of the services includes data processed by the sentio codec;
• and
• compose and direct the layers, and services performed by the other devices into a participant experience to be presented on at least one of the plurality of devices.

An apparatus for composing and directing a multi-dimensional participant experience, the apparatus comprising:

• an input interface configured to receive at least some sensory data associated with a multi-dimensional data stream;
• a first experience agent, the first experience agent including an API and a sentio codec, the API configured to enable the first experience agent to communicate with a second experience agent, the sentio codec configured to process the multi-dimensional data stream from the second experience agent to define a multi-dimensional experience;
• and
• an output interface configured to present the multi-dimensional experience to the participant.
