Abstract
Systems and methods described that provide for sending a first temporal portion of video to a client, wherein video quality of a first spatial region associated with a first direction of view is sent with higher quality than video data for another spatial region not associated with the first direction of view; sending a second temporal portion of the video to the client; and responsive to determining that a significant event, audio or video or a combination, occurred during the second temporal portion and corresponds with a second direction of view that is associated with a second spatial region, sending higher quality video for the second spatial region than video data for another spatial region. Virtual reality (VR) video, including 360-degree VR video may thus be foveated, based on contextual information in the video data and corresponding audio data, combined with field of view predictions based upon user motion.
