Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) streaming system provides client-controlled adaptive streaming of 3D content in which the client may receive the 3D primitives of 3D content at different fidelities that the client selects. The system includes generating a 3D model at different fidelities, partitioning the 3D model into different volumetric spatial units, generating a manifest with an index for each volumetric spatial unit and an identifier for each fidelity, and presenting the 3D primitives in a first set of volumetric spatial units at a first fidelity and the 3D primitives in a second set of volumetric spatial units at a second fidelity in response to a request that includes indices of the first set of volumetric spatial units with a first identifier for the first fidelity and indices of the second set of volumetric spatial units with a second identifier for the second fidelity.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing methods for cloud-based rendering of interactive augmented reality (AR) and/or virtual reality (VR) experiences. A client device may initiate execution of a content application on a server and provide information associated with the content application to the server. The client device may initialize, while awaiting a notification from the server, local systems associated with the content application and, upon receipt of the notification, provide, to the server, information associated with the local systems. Further, the client device may receive, from the server, data associated with the content application and render an AR/VR scene based on the received data. The data may be based, at least in part, on the information associated with the local system. The providing and receiving may be performed periodically, e.g., at a rate to sustain a comfortable viewing environment of the AR/VR scene by a user of the client device.

Abstract: An interactive exercise method includes streaming exercise content to an interactive video system for display via a mirror, the exercise content including a depiction of an instructor performing a repetitive movement. A video stream of a user performing the repetitive movement is received, via a camera of the interactive video system, and the user is detected in the video stream. The user or a body portion thereof is tracked in the video stream as the user performs the repetitive movement. The method also includes generating a measure of a difference between a form of the user performing the repetitive movement and a predetermined form for the repetitive movement. A corrective movement is displayed to the user, via the display and during the display of the instructor performing the repetitive movement, based on the measure, to conform the form of the user to the predetermined form for the repetitive movement.
