Efficient Delivery of Multi-Camera Interactive Content

Abstract:

Techniques are disclosed relating to encoding recorded content for distribution to other computing devices. In various embodiments, a first computing device records content of a physical environment in which the first computing device is located, the content being deliverable to a second computing device configured to present a corresponding environment based on the recorded content and content recorded by one or more additional computing devices. The first computing device determines a location of the first computing device within the physical environment and encodes the location in a manifest usable to stream the content recorded by the first computing device to the second computing device. The encoded location is usable by the second computing device to determine whether to stream the content recorded by the first computing device.
