SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ENABLING ADAPTIVE BITRATE STREAMING FOR VOLUMETRIC VIDEOS

摘要

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device that has a processing system including a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations including selecting a downsampling technique for removing points from a point cloud in a volumetric video; selecting a data reduction percentage for a target bitrate for streaming the volumetric video; downsampling the point cloud in each frame of the volumetric video for the target bitrate using the downsampling technique and data reduction percentage selected, thereby creating a downsampled volumetric video; and compressing and encoding the downsampled volumetric video, thereby creating an encoded volumetric video. Other embodiments are disclosed.
