Patent attributes
A method and/or system for performing computationally intensive processing associated with rendering and displaying an immersive image in an immersive view server and performing minimal or no additional processing at a viewer device. The viewer devices send viewing parameters to the immersive view server. In response, the immersive view server generates and sends images that may be part of the immersive image for display in viewports of the viewer devices. The viewer devices receive and display the image received from the server without or with minimal additional processing of the received images. The immersive view server and the viewer devices need only communicate view parameters and images corresponding to the viewport. Resource intensive processing is performed at the immersive view server. Hence, minimal computational and memory resources are required at the viewer device to display the immersive image.
