Cooperation-based anti-nuisance techniques for streaming virtual reality video

摘要

Described are techniques and systems for supporting cooperative interaction as part of a VR (Virtual Reality) video. In one example, a viewport is created such that a reviewing user of a reviewing user device can view a VR video viewed by a source user of a source user device. For example, the viewport may be configured as a border that at least partially surrounds a portion of the VR video output from the review VR device. In another case, the viewport is configured to support output of thumbnails within an output of the VR video by the review VR device. Also described are techniques and systems for supporting communication of comments between the source and test VR devices. Lastly, techniques and systems are also described for supporting efficient distribution of a VR video in the context of a content editing application.
