Abstract
A minimal volumetric 3D transmission implementation enables efficient transmission of a 3D model to a client device. A volumetric 3D model is generated using a camera rig to capture frames of a subject. A viewer is able to select a view of the subject. A system determines an optimal subset of cameras of the camera rig to utilize to capture frames to generate the volumetric 3D model based on the viewer's selected view. The volumetric 3D model is transmitted to the user device. If the user changes the view, the process repeats, and a new subset of cameras are selected to generate the volumetric 3D model at a different angle.
