Abstract: An image delivery system responds to limits of bandwidth by changing the resolution of the delivered image according to the frame rate required. For a motion picture image, the resolution is reduced in order to maintain the frame rate, and if the image is paused, a maximum image resolution is loaded instead during the time the image is not being updated. For immersive imaging systems, there is a similar adjustment of resolution according to frame rate and the bandwidth requirements, and the user is free to look around, either inside a motion picture at reduced resolution or a paused image at a higher resolution. This higher resolution is typically seen in a movable region of interest window extracted from the larger immersive image.
