Abstract

The newest light field displays visualizing captured and rendered 3D contents not only bring their entrance to the consumer market closer, but also raise numerous research questions regarding the quality of this novel form of multimedia. Unlike their conventional 2D and stereoscopic 3D predecessors, glasses-free visualization can enable prolonged periods of 3D multimedia consumption, in the form of local playback and video streaming, where the perceived content depends on the user’s viewing angle. In this paper, we discuss the potential use case scenarios of streaming services for such displays and other general cases of visualization for entertainment purposes. The paper also details the considerations regarding visual quality, as certain requirements may vary for different viewing conditions.
