Specification for streaming & storage of immersive content
At the 142 nd MPEG meeting, MPEG Video Coding (WG 04) promoted its MPEG immersive video (MIV) conformance and reference software standard (ISO/IEC 23090-23) to the Final draft international standard (FDIS) stage, the last formal milestone of its approval process. The document specifies how to conduct conformance tests and provides reference encoder and decoder software for ISO/IEC 23090-12 MPEG immersive video. This draft includes 23 verified and validated conformance bitstreams and encoding and decoding
MIV was developed to support compression of immersive video content, in which a real or virtual 3D scene is captured by multiple real or virtual cameras. The standard enables the storage and distribution of immersive video content over existing and future networks, for playback with 6 degrees of freedom (6DoF) of view position and orientation. MIV is a flexible standard for multiview video with depth (MVD) and multi-planar video (MPI) that leverages the strong hardware support for commonly used video format
