Abstract: Some embodiments of an example method may include: receiving a manifest file for streaming content, the manifest file identifying one or more degrees of freedom representations of content; tracking bandwidth available; selecting a selected representation from the one or more degrees of freedom representations based on the bandwidth available; retrieving the selected representation; and rendering the selected representation. Some embodiments of the example method may include determining estimated download latency of the one or more degrees of freedom representations. Some embodiments of the example method may include tracking client capabilities. For some embodiments of the example method, selecting the selected representation may be based on the estimated download latency and/or the client capabilities.

Abstract: Some embodiments of a method may include tracking a distance between a local VR device and a remote VR device; selecting an experience-sharing mode from a plurality of experience-sharing modes based on the tracked distance; and providing a different degree of immersive user experience to a user at the local VR device depending on the selected experience-sharing mode, wherein as the distance between the local VR device and the remote VR device decreases, the experience-sharing mode changes and the degree of immersive user experience increases. Some embodiments of another method may include detecting a gesture made by a user; selecting an immersiveness mode from a plurality of immersiveness modes based on the detected gesture; and providing a degree of immersive user experience to a local VR device user depending on the selected immersiveness mode.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for capturing, using a forward-facing camera associated with a head-mounted augmented reality (AR) head-mounted display (HMD), images of portions of first and second display devices in an environment, the first and second display devices displaying first and second portions of content related to an AR presentation, and displaying a third portion of content related to the AR presentation on the AR HMD, the third portion determined based upon the images of portions of the first and second display devices captured using the forward-facing camera. Moreover, the first and second display devices may be active stereo display, and the AR HMD may simultaneously function as shutter glasses.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for compressing color information in point cloud data. In some embodiments, point cloud data includes point position information and point color information for each of a plurality of points. The point position information is provided to a neural network, and the neural network generates predicted color information (e.g. predicted luma and chroma values) for respective points in the point cloud. A prediction residual is generated to represent the difference between the predicted color information and the input point color position. The point position information (which may be in compressed form) and the prediction residual are encoded in a bitstream. In some embodiments, color hint data is encoded to improve color prediction.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing spatial content using a hybrid format. In some embodiments, a client device receives, from a server, surface light field representations of a plurality of scene elements in a 3D scene, including a first scene element. The client device provides to the server an indication of a dynamic behavior of a second scene element different from the first scene element. Further, in response to the indication, the client device receives from the server information defining the first scene element in a 3D asset format. The client device then renders at least the first scene element in the 3D asset format.
