Next-Generation ITMF Streaming Demo Recap
In May, IDEA conducted a live demonstration of the latest advance in 3D streaming, showing a greatly advanced architecture and pipeline developed by engineers from IDEA members Charter Communications, OTOY, and CableLabs.
In the demo, hundreds of 3D objects were streamed in a complete 3D scene, creating a seamless 3D experience for the viewer. Now, the viewer will be able to watch and interact with longer-form 3D content on multiple immersive displays.
Both Unreal and Unity game engines were employed as clients. This is significant since over 90% of developers and content providers for immersive displays are using these game engines to create content, making this is a major step toward bringing 3D streaming to a wider audience.
