Abstract:
Implementations disclose a user interface that supports an access control mechanism for peer-to-peer sharing technology. An example method includes providing for display a user interface comprising a plurality of media items and a plurality of media availability indicators, wherein a portion of the user interface represents that an encrypted version of a media item of the plurality of media items and an encryption key for the encrypted version are being received over a peer-to-peer connection; updating a media availability indicator of the media availability indicators to represent that the encrypted version of the media item and the encryption key are saved; receiving an indication that the encrypted version of the media item is decrypted; and updating the media availability indicator to represent the media item is available to be experienced.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for capturing omnistereo content for a mobile device may include receiving an indication to capture a plurality of images of a scene, capturing the plurality of images using a camera associated with a mobile device and displaying on a screen of the mobile device and during capture, a representation of the plurality of images and presenting a composite image that includes a target capture path and an indicator that provides alignment information corresponding to a source capture path associated with the mobile device during capture of the plurality of images. The system may detect that a portion of the source capture path does not match a target capture path. The system can provide an updated indicator in the screen that may include a prompt to a user of the mobile device to adjust the mobile device to align the source capture path with the target capture path.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are described for defining a set of images based on captured images, receiving a viewing direction associated with a user of a virtual reality (VR) head mounted display, receiving an indication of a change in the viewing direction. The methods further include configuring, a re-projection of a portion of the set of images, the re-projection based at least in part on the changed viewing direction and a field of view associated with the captured images, and converting the portion from a spherical perspective projection into a planar perspective projection, rendering by the computing device and for display in the VR head mounted display, an updated view based on the re-projection, the updated view configured to correct distortion and provide stereo parallax in the portion, and providing, to the head mounted display, the updated view including a stereo panoramic scene corresponding to the changed viewing direction.
Abstract:
A processing device of a media server selects a media item to be provided to users via a satellite broadcast system, encrypts the media item using an encryption key to generate an encrypted media item, and transmits the encrypted media item to the satellite broadcast system via a first communication protocol. The processing device receives a request from a user device for authorization to decrypt the encrypted media item obtained by the user device via a direct connection with the satellite broadcast system. The request is received by the media server via a second communication protocol that is different from the first communication protocol. The processing device determines whether the user device is authorized to decrypt the encrypted media item, and transmits a key for decrypting the encrypted media item in response to the user device being authorized to decrypt the encrypted media item.
