Abstract:

Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system and computer program product for viewport selection for hypervideo presentation. In a method for viewport selection for hypervideo presentation, a multiplicity of different hypervideos, for example 360.degree. hypervideos, are played back to an end user and end user interactions by the end user with each of the different hypervideos are recorded. Then, an end user profile for the end user is computed from the recorded end user interactions so as to specify a particular viewport. Finally, in response to a directive by the end user to view a new hypervideo, the end user profile is retrieved and the particular viewport identified so that the new hypervideo is played back to the end user utilizing the particular viewport.
