A high-quality low-delay remote rendering system for 3D video

Abstract

As an emerging technology, 3D video has shown a great potential to become the next generation media for tele-immersion. However, streaming and rendering this dynamic 3D data in real-time requires tremendous network bandwidth and computing resources. In this paper, we build a remote rendering model to better study different remote rendering designs and define 3D video rendering as an optimization problem. Moreover, we design a 3D video remote rendering system that significantly reduces the delay while maintaining high rendering quality. We also propose a reference viewpoint prediction algorithm with super sampling support that requires much less computation resources but provides better performance than the search-based algorithms proposed in the related work.
