Abstract:
A VR snapshot broadcasting distribution system, a distribution server, a control method for the distribution server, a program for the distribution server, and a data structure of a VR snapshot data, whereby a 3D space is kept in a 3D form and data of the 3D space is made compact are disclosed. An example distribution server includes: a shooting instruction input unit, to which unit a VR snapshot shooting instruction is input by a distributor or a viewer; an exterior appearance data constructor configured to construct exterior appearance data of the entire 3-dimensional space including the avatar, based on a VR snapshot shooting instruction; a VR snapshot data distribution unit configured to distribute, as VR snapshot data, the exterior appearance data of the entire 3-dimensional space including the avatar, which is constructed by the exterior appearance data constructor; and a display unit configured to display the VR snapshot.
