摘要:
An apparatus is described comprising a Power-over-Ethernet interface, a High-Definition Media Interface (HDMI), a Bluetooth interface, a means for decompressing low-latency streaming interactive video and audio from an Internet-based hosting service and outputting the decompressed audio and video through HDMI, and a means for transmitting to the Internet-based hosting service user control information and statistics from received packets. Further, the apparatus is able to receive two interleaved streams of low-latency streaming interactive video.
摘要:
A method comprising running a web browser on one or more servers of a service center, and hosting files for a web page on a storage unit associated with the one or more servers. Upon receiving user input from a client device to the web browser at the service center, streaming interactive video web page is transmitted to the client device with substantially no detectable latency.
摘要:
An apparatus comprising a server that generates a stream of streaming interactive video and/or audio. Means for multicasting the stream to a plurality of client devices accommodating different device video, audio and/or network characteristics, and means for allowing input from one or more of the client devices to control the streaming interactive video.
摘要:
A method includes multicasting by a server center of streaming interactive video/audio streams to multiple destinations via an outbound Internet traffic interface. A given video/audio stream is routed to multiple destinations simultaneously. At least one of the video/audio streams is received at a delay buffer of the server center, the delay buffer storing a replayable portion of at least one of the video/audio streams.

A system and method are described below for encoding interactive low-latency video using interframe coding. For example, one embodiment of a computer-implemented method for performing video compression comprises: detecting motion or high scene complexity within a sequence of images occurring at different regions within the sequence of images; logically subdividing each of the sequence of images into a plurality of tiles, each tile having a size selected based on the amount of motion detected in a region in which the tile is positioned; and encoding one or more of the tiles within each image of the sequence of images using a first compression format and encoding the remainder of the tiles within each image of the sequence of images using a second compression format.

A system and method are described for performing motion capture on a subject. For example, a computer-implemented method according to one embodiment of the invention comprises: creating a scalar field for the three- dimensional (3-D) capture volume of the subject; generating a surface mesh for the scalar field; retaining good vertices and removing bad vertices of the surface mesh; and storing the good vertices for use in subsequent reconstruction of the motion of the subject. Another computer-implemented method comprises: capturing a series of image frames of the subject over a period of time each frame each frame having a plurality of vertices defining a captured surface of the subject; establishing a reference frame having one or more of the plurality of vertices; performing frame-to-frame tracking to identify vertices within the N'th frame based on the (N-1 )'th frame or an earlier frame; and performing reference- to-frame tracking to identify vertices within the N'th frame based on the reference frame to counter potential drift between the frames. Yet another computer- implemented method comprises: capturing motion capture data including a plurality of images of the N vertices during a motion capture session; retrospectively identifying X of the N vertices to track across the plurality of images where X
