Abstract:
The disclosure relates to methods, apparatuses, and systems of providing livestream services involving multiple camera angles. A video streaming system may provide a client with a data stream that allows for viewing the video streaming from any of the multiple cameras at the client's choosing. The video streaming system may first access image data from the multiple cameras. Image data from the multiple cameras taken at a single instance in time may be “stitched” together into a single array of image data to form an “image wall.” The image wall may be compressed to be substantially smaller than the sum of their individual compressed images. A stream of image walls may be generated and transmitted to a client device. Metadata including mapping information enables the client to locate a chosen camera angle to view and switch to any camera angle viewing of the same video stream at the client's choosing.
