The captured videos are compressed and are sent to a server in real-time. Users can subscribe to a new type of service that allows users to connect to the servers and receive multi-view videos interactively. In addition to conventional playing controls, users can manipulate controls to the camera positions and orientations, select viewing directions and enjoy special effects such as sweeping effect and a freeze-and-rotate effect, and so on. Interactive multi-view video provides a brand-new experience in watching events. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
