Abstract
Multi-view video systems are designed to allow users to watch 3D videos or a scene recorded by multiple cameras from multiple viewpoints. They are actually used by crowd sourced journalism services or to cover events using a set of wireless drones/sensors filming the same scene, etc. Multi-view videos are captured by multiple cameras at different positions with significant correlations between neighboring views. Owing to the increased data volume of multi-view video, highly efficient encoding techniques are needed. The common idea for Multi-View Video Coding (MVC) is to further exploit the redundancy between adjacent views. In this paper, we focus on the acquisition phase of the multi-view video system. We propose a Mobile Multi-view Video Streaming scheme with Constant Order Encoding (MMVS/COE). It encodes by exploiting the inter/intra-view dependency to reduce redundancy and optimize the tradeoff between traffic volume (bite rate) and video quality. Evaluations’ results show that MMVS/COE reduces traffic, compared to existing methods, mainly MVC/MC, by decreasing redundancies among video streams while maintaining video quality.
