In some embodiments, an estimate of a floorplan of a three-dimensional space is first generated based on one or more received views of the three-dimensional space from a camera located in the three-dimensional space.

Display of a rendering having the determined camera pose is facilitated in an actual view of the camera, resulting in an aligned, augmented reality view.

In some embodiments, an estimate of a floorplan of a three-dimensional space is first generated based on one or more views of the three-dimensional space from a camera of a device located in the three-dimensional space.

Abstract: Improved techniques for generating video content are disclosed. In some embodiments, a frame is rendered using a rendering option. It is then determined whether the frame is an independent frame (I-frame) or a predictive frame (P-frame). In the event that the frame is an I-frame, the frame is independently encoded. In the event that the frame is a P-frame, motion is estimated from a known geometry of an associated scene and motion vectors and prediction error are encoded.
