Abstract
An exemplary merged reality scene capture system ('system') generates a transport stream based on video data received from a plurality of capture devices. The transport stream includes a respective video data stream for each capture device, each respective video data stream representing surfaces of a real-world object as the surfaces appear from a vantage point of the capture device. Based on the transport stream, the system generates entity description data representative of the real-world object. The system also generates entity description data representative of a virtual object to be included within a 3D space of a merged reality scene along with the real-world object. Based on the entity description data, the system generates an entity description frame representative of a state of the objects within the 3D space. The system provides the entity description frame to a plurality of 3D rendering engines associated with a content provider system.
