Advanced compression and streaming tools for ultra-high definition immersive media with live experimentation

Advanced next-generation media for immersive spaces require efficient video compression and transmission, which is related to the implementation of modern encoding and streaming methods. The use of prototype devices existing currently on the market requires time and integration, but opens up a huge space for experimentation and the use of research results in practice. In this article we present modern solutions for encoding high-quality and high-resolution media, as well as for obtaining video content and media streaming. We present the results of experiments of long-distance 8K streaming with low latency. Artists, also associated with the STARTS initiative, participated in these works.
