  • MV/MODE PREDICTION, ROI-BASED TRANSMIT, METADATA CAPTURE, AND FORMAT DETECTION FOR 360 VIDEO
    Publication number: 20180288435
    Abstract: An embodiment of an electronic processing system may include a 2D frame which corresponds to a projection of a 360 video space, and a component predictor to predict an encode component for a first block of a 2D frame based on encode information from a neighboring block which is neighboring to the first block of the 2D frame only in the 360 video space, a prioritizer to prioritize transmission for a second block of the 2D frame based on an identified region of interest, and/or a format detector to detect a 360 video format of the 2D frame based on image content. A 360 video capture device may include a contextual tagger to tag 360 video content with contextual information which is contemporaneous with the captured 360 video content. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
