REAL-TIME PANORAMA STREAMING SYSTEM FOR HIGH RESOLUTION PANORAMA VIDEOS AND/OR IMAGES

摘要

PURPOSE: A system for streaming a high definition panoramic image in real time and a method thereof are provided to supply a second thumbnail image of high definition when slice information of a specific area in a first thumbnail image is requested, thereby efficiently supplying the panoramic image to a client terminal under a limited bandwidth. CONSTITUTION: A server receives a panoramic image by using a panorama camera unit(600). The server transmits the panoramic image by encoding the panoramic image to a first thumbnail image corresponding to a specification of each accessed client terminal(610). The server transmits a specific area by encoding the same with low definition or high definition of a second thumbnail image corresponding to an image information request of the specific area of the first thumbnail image(620,630).
