Abstract:
An apparatus, method, and computer readable medium for a virtual reality (VR) client and a contents server for live virtual reality events are provided. The contents server receives feeds from each 360° camera at a venue. The contents server transmits a primary first 360° video in a first stream and converted secondary non-360° videos in a second stream to a VR client. The VR client determines relative positions of each non-360° video in order to display rendered thumbnails of the non-360° videos in the first 360° video. The VR client transmits a selection of a non-360° video to the contents server. The contents server transmits the second 360° video related to the selection in a first stream and the converted first non-360° video in the second stream.
