Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, transmitting viewpoint information associated with a first portion of a three-dimensional (3D)/volumetric video to a device, wherein the viewpoint information comprises a first coordinate in 3D space associated with a first viewing direction in a playback of the first portion and a first timestamp associated with the first portion, receiving, from the device, a multiplane image (MPI) representation of a second portion of the 3D video responsive to the transmitting of the viewpoint information, and providing an image of the MPI representation to a display device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A processing system of a mobile device may determine the device's predicted viewport, which defines a portion of a real world environment that is expected to be visible to the device's user at a future time. The processing system may determine a set of extended reality anchors that are present in the real world environment, where each anchor stores a digital object that, when rendered by the device and presented to the user simultaneously with the real world environment, creates extended reality media. The processing system may remove a first subset anchors from the set, where locations of anchors in the first subset fall outside a threshold distance from the predicted viewport. The removing results in a second subset of anchors remaining in the set. The processing system may download a digital object from a second device, where the digital object is stored by an anchor of the second subset.
