Abstract: Cloud-based virtual reality content processing methods and systems are disclosed. In some embodiments, raw virtual reality video data recorded by a virtual reality camera system may be received at a cloud based server through a network interface. The raw virtual reality video data may be processed to generate one or more virtual reality renders. A first virtual reality content may be processed in a first virtual reality format from the one or more virtual reality renders. A second virtual reality content may be processed in a second virtual reality format from the one or more virtual reality renders. The first virtual reality content and the second virtual reality content may be provided for download through a network interface.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to receive a request for a virtual reality render project that includes information specifying virtual reality video data to be used to create a virtual reality render; determine a plurality of virtual reality jobs required to create the virtual reality render from the virtual reality video data; determine the availability of a plurality of virtual reality nodes across the network; create a virtual reality render map that specifies a processing sequence of the plurality of virtual reality jobs across the one or more virtual reality nodes to create the virtual reality render, the virtual reality render map being created based on at least the availability of the plurality of virtual reality nodes; and process the plurality of virtual reality jobs at the plurality of virtual reality nodes to create the virtual reality.

Abstract: The disclosure includes a system and method for generating virtual reality content. For example, the disclosure includes a method for generating virtual reality content that includes a stream of three-dimensional video data and a stream of three-dimensional audio data with a processor-based computing device programmed to perform the generating, providing the virtual reality content to a user, detecting a location of the user's gaze at the virtual reality content, and suggesting an advertisement based on the location of the user's gaze. Another example includes receiving virtual reality content that includes a stream of three-dimensional video data and a stream of three-dimensional audio data to a first user with a processor-based computing device programmed to perform the receiving, generating a social network for the first user, and generating a social graph that includes user interactions with the virtual reality content.
