Description

We investigate the rate-distortion (R-D) characteristics of full ultrahigh definition (UHD) 360◦videos and capture corresponding head movement navigation data of virtual reality (VR) headsets. We use the navigation data to analyze how users explore the 360◦look-around panorama for such content and formulate related statistical models. The developed R-D characteristics and modeling capture the spatiotemporal encoding efficiency of the content at multiple scales and can be exploited to enable higher operational efficiency in key use cases. The high-quality expectations for next-generation immersive media necessitate the understanding of these intrinsic navigation and content characteristics of full UHD 360◦videos.
