Mediated Reality Content Sharing via Device Parameter Adaptation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current technologies face challenges in efficiently sharing mediated reality content, such as augmented or virtual reality, between devices due to differences in display parameters like resolution, aspect ratio, and color reproduction, which affect the quality and compatibility of the shared content.
Innovation Solution
A method that identifies the parameters of a target device and determines an appropriate portion of mediated reality content to share based on those parameters, ensuring optimal display compatibility and quality, using computer program code executed by a processor to manage the sharing process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If mediated reality content is shared between devices with different display parameters, then the content can be viewed on multiple devices, but the display quality and compatibility deteriorate due to differences in resolution, aspect ratio, and color reproduction
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts display parameters (resolution, aspect ratio, color profile) of the shared content based on the target device's display characteristics. The server receives device parameter information and transforms the mediated reality content to match the target device's capabilities, ensuring optimal display quality across different devices.
Solution Approach 2:
A server acts as an intermediary between the content source and the target device. The server receives the mediated reality content and device parameters, performs the necessary transformations, and delivers the adapted content to the target device, resolving the incompatibility between different display specifications.
2Loss of information
If the entire mediated reality content is shared with the further device, then complete content is available, but the data transmission volume and processing load increase unnecessarily
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the mediated reality content based on the target device's display parameters and only transmits the necessary portions. By analyzing device capabilities, the server divides and sends only the relevant content segments required for optimal display, reducing unnecessary data transmission while maintaining content completeness.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of transmitting the entire content set, the system applies partial action by sending only the specific portion of content needed for the target device's display capabilities, avoiding excessive data transmission while ensuring all necessary information is delivered.

AI summary
A method, apparatus and computer program code are provided. The method comprises: causing display of mediated reality content by one or more displays associated with a device; identifying a further device with which at least a portion of the mediated reality content is to be shared; determining one or more parameters characterizing one or more displays associated with the further device; determining at least a portion of the mediated reality content to be shared with the further device based, at least in part, on the determined one or more parameters; and causing the portion of the mediated reality content to be shared with the further device.
