  • MAPPING CONTENT DIRECTLY TO A 3D GEOMETRIC PLAYBACK SURFACE
    Publication number: 20140218355
    Abstract: Systems and methods for mapping content directly to a 3D geometric playback surface. A source file is generated that includes content in a native format. A 3D geometric playback surface to which content can be mapped is generated. A portion of the 3D geometric playback surface to map content to is determined. The content is mapped to a determined portion of a 3D geometric playback surface in a native format of the content. Content mapped to a portion of a 3D geometric playback surface in a native format of the content is played from the 3D geometric playback surface.

  • DIVIDING HIGH RESOLUTION VIDEO FRAMES INTO MULTIPLE LOWER RESOLUTION VIDEO FRAMES TO SUPPORT IMMERSIVE PLAYBACK RESOLUTION ON A PLAYBACK DEVICE
    Publication number: 20140218607
    Abstract: Generating a geometric playback surface with subdivisions for playing playback content. Subdividing at least one source file that includes playback content into a plurality of subdivided source files. Aggregated playback content is mapped form subdivided source files to the subdivisions of the geometric playback surface. A virtual sensor is placed on the playback surface and a portion of the mapped aggregated playback content is played based on the position of the virtual sensor on the geometric playback surface.
