Traditional feature-based image stitching technologies rely heavily on feature detection
quality, often failing to stitch images with few features or low resolution. The learning-based …

Flare is a practical system for streaming 360-degree videos on commodity mobile devices. It
takes a viewport-adaptive approach, which fetches only portions of a panoramic scene that …

In this paper, we perform a systematic design study of the" elephant in the room" facing the
VR industry--is it feasible to enable high-quality VR apps on untethered mobile devices such …

Recently, there has been a significant interest towards 360-degree panorama video.
However, such videos usually require extremely high bitrate which hinders their widely …

The networking of virtual reality applications will play an important role in the emerging
global Internet of Things (IoT) framework and it is expected to provide the foundation of the …

With the advent of the information age, VR video streaming services have emerged in large
numbers in scenarios such as immersive entertainment, smart education, and the Internet of …

We study the problem of predicting the Field-of-Views (FoVs) of viewers watching 360°
videos using commodity Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs). Existing solutions either use the …

Panoramic video provides immersive and interactive experience by enabling humans to
control the field of view (FoV) through head movement (HM). Thus, HM plays a key role in …

Image stitching is a traditional but challenging computer vision task, aiming to obtain a
seamless panoramic image. Recently, researchers begin to study the image stitching task …

Image stitching aims at generating high-quality panoramas with the lowest computational
cost. In this paper, we propose a parallax-tolerant image stitching method based on robust …
