Abstract

Multi-view video allows user to watch 3D video and select desired viewpoint. In order to reduce the switching delay, many researches tend to transmit all the views, which brings much more increment in the bandwidth requirement. And the traffic increase as the increase of the number of the views in the multi-view video. In order to overcome these problems, we have proposed a user dependent scheme called UDMVT for the transmission of multi-view video. And we further improved this scheme to support the 3D multi-view video. The evaluation results proved that UDMVT is efficient to reduce the bit-rate of the transmission of the multi-view video in the successive motion model especially when the number of view is larger. In this paper, we will simply introduce the UDMVT and discuss the application of the UDMVT in the Free Viewpoint TV.
