Abstract
A volumetric image of a scene can be created, in one embodiment, by recording, through a camera in a device, a series of images of the scene as the camera is moved along a path relative to the scene; during the recording, the device stores motion path metadata about the path, and the series of images is associated with the motion path metadata and a metadata label is associated with the series of images, the metadata label indicating that the recorded series of images represent a volumetric image of the scene. The series of images, the motion path metadata and the metadata label can be assembled into a package for distribution to devices that can view the volumetric image, which may be referred to as a limited volumetric image. The devices that receive the volumetric image can display the individual images in the series of images or as a video.
