Stephan Steglich of business unit Future Applications and Media (FAME) will present  “Technical challenges for the delivery of 360° Videos” and demonstrate the Fraunhofer FOKUS Cloud-based 360° Video Playout for HbbTV.

The Fraunhofer FOKUS Cloud-based 360° Video Playout for HbbTV supports a “Field of View” Adaptive Streaming approach, which enables the experience of 360° videos on any video playback device. In this approach, the 360° video content is rendered in the cloud and only the selected view is streamed to the receiver. Hence, the required bandwidth is reduced compared to the streaming of a full 360° video. This allows high quality 360° video experience on any device.
