Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods that deliver 360° video streams, which may be used in virtual reality and augmented reality content. Namely, a 360° video stream may be divided into a plurality of video streams, each stream of which corresponds to a portion of a viewing volume or viewing sphere. Additionally, the original 360° video stream may be downsampled to a lower resolution 360° video stream. For a given user view angle, one or more of the plurality of video streams may be considered active streams and connected to a user interface or display for data download. In such a scenario, a user interface may be connected to at least one high resolution video stream that corresponds to the user view angle as well as a low resolution 360° video stream.
