IDCC - InterDigital and Philips to Showcase Volumetric Streaming Technologies Empowering Immersive Sports Experiences at AWE USA 2024 | Benzinga
WILMINGTON, Del., June 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), a mobile, video and AI technology research and development company, and Philips announced an upcoming showcase at AWE USA 2024 to demonstrate how volumetric video-based codecs and streaming technologies enable completely new levels of immersivity when streaming live and eSports experiences. The AWE conference and expo will take place in Long Beach, California from June 18 – 20, 2024.
Located at Booth 233, InterDigital and Philips will jointly demonstrate their immersive technologies and contributions to video standards that enable the rendering and delivery of volumetric video experiences. Volumetric video adds the sensation of depth and parallax to traditional content by capturing 3D representations of a real-world object or scenes and translating them into a sequence of frames that can be transmitted across devices. Given the richness of volumetric data, the delivery of this video content requires special compression, and the MPEG Visual Volumetric Video-based Coding (V3C) standard defines the general mechanism for coding and streaming volumetric content.
InterDigital and Philips' collaboration on V3C immersive codecs empowers the delivery of volumetric content, leveraging InterDigital's expertise in immersive codecs, including video point cloud compression (V-PCC), haptics, and MPEG immersive video (MIV) extensions, alongside Philips' expertise in MIV extensions and contributions to critical six degrees of freedom (6DoF) immersive codec and content creation pipelines for 3D rendering.
At AWE, the partners will demonstrate the ...
