Cloud VR: Technology and Application

Based on the technical accumulation and practice of Huawei iLab in the Cloud VR field, this book systematically describes the advantages of Cloud VR technologies; technical requirements on clouds, networks, and terminals as well as solution implementation; Cloud VR experience evaluation baselines and methods; and current business practices.

Cloud VR introduces cloud computing and cloud rendering to VR services. With fast and stable networks, cloud-based display output and audio output are coded, compressed, and transmitted to user terminals, implementing cloud-based VR service content and content rendering. Cloud VR has stringent requirements on bandwidth and latency, making it a proficient application for 5G and gigabit home broadband networks in the era of "dual G".

As the first advocate of Cloud VR, Huawei iLab developed the first prototype of the Cloud VR technical solution, initiated the industry's first Cloud VR industry cooperation plan - VR OpenLab with partners - and incubated the world's first Cloud VR commercial project with China Mobile Fujian. Cloud VR: Technology and Application is the first official publication of Huawei iLab's research and practice achievements. It systematically and thoroughly introduces the Cloud VR concept, solution architecture, key technologies, and business practices and is of great value in academic and social applications.

This book is easy to understand, practical, and suitable for VR vendors, VR technology enthusiasts, carriers, network vendors, cloud service providers, universities, and other enterprises and scientific research institutes.

本書基於華為iLab在雲端VR領域的技術積累和實踐，系統地描述了雲端VR技術的優勢；雲端、網路和終端的技術要求以及解決方案的實施；雲端VR體驗評估基準和方法；以及當前的業務實踐。

雲端VR將雲計算和雲渲染引入VR服務。通過快速穩定的網路，將基於雲端的顯示輸出和音頻輸出編碼、壓縮和傳輸到用戶終端，實現基於雲端的VR服務內容和內容渲染。雲端VR對帶寬和延遲有嚴格要求，使其成為“雙G”時代5G和千兆家庭寬帶網路的熟練應用。

作為雲端VR的首倡者，華為iLab開發了雲端VR技術解決方案的第一個原型，啟動了行業首個與合作夥伴共同推進的VR OpenLab計劃，並與中國移動福建孵化了全球首個雲端VR商業項目。《雲端VR：技術與應用》是華為iLab研究和實踐成果的首部正式出版物。它系統全面地介紹了雲端VR的概念、解決方案架構、關鍵技術和業務實踐，對學術和社會應用具有重要價值。

本書易於理解，實用，適合VR供應商、VR技術愛好者、運營商、網路供應商、雲服務提供商、大學和其他企業和科研機構使用。
