Abstract
Recently, tile-based viewport adaptation is a popular method for 360 video streaming. Our demonstration adopts a rate-mixed transmission approach utilizing a VR adaptation agent at the server end for viewport-based streaming, which is client-compatible and can be scalable to different users. The FOV prediction is applied to improve the viewing experience. The feasibility of our system to headmounted displays is verified, which can reduce bandwidth consumption by up to 36%.
