Abstract:
An exemplary video encoding system accesses an image set that includes first and second consecutive color data images depicting a virtual reality scene from a particular vantage point, and first and second consecutive depth data images corresponding to the color data images. The system performs a first-pass video encoding of the image set by identifying motion vector data associated with a transformation from the first to the second color data image, and abstaining from analyzing a transformation from the first to the second depth data image. The system then performs a second-pass video encoding of the image set based on the identified motion vector data by encoding the first and second color data images into a color video stream to be rendered by a media player device, and the first and second depth data images into a depth video stream to be rendered by the media player device.

Claim (Index 20):
A system comprising:\n an image generation system configured to generate\n a full atlas frame sequence including a plurality of full atlas frames, the full atlas frame sequence including a plurality of image sequences that includes a color data image sequence and a depth data image sequence both depicting a virtual reality scene from a particular vantage point, wherein\n the color data image sequence includes a first color data image and a second color data image consecutively following the first color data image, and \n the depth data image sequence includes a first depth data image corresponding to the first color data image, and a second depth data image consecutively following the first depth data image and corresponding to the second color data image; \n \n a plurality of partial atlas frame sequences each including a different subset of the image sequences in the plurality of image sequences included in the full atlas frame sequence, the plurality of partial atlas frame sequences including a first partial atlas frame sequence and a second partial atlas frame sequence that each includes the color data image sequence with the first and second color data images and the depth data image sequence with the first and second depth data images; \n a first video encoder communicatively coupled to the image generation system and configured to\n access the first partial atlas frame sequence from the image generation system, \n perform a first-pass video encoding of the first partial atlas frame sequence by\n determining motion vector data associated with a transformation from the first color data image to the second color data image, and \n abstaining from analyzing a transformation from the first depth data image to the second depth data image, and \n \n perform a second-pass video encoding of the first partial atlas frame sequence by encoding, based on the determined motion vector data,\n the first and second color data images into a first color video stream to be rendered by a first media player device, and \n the first and second depth data images into a first depth video stream to be rendered by the first media player device; and \n \n a second video encoder communicatively coupled to the image generation system and configured to\n access the second partial atlas frame sequence from the image generation system, \n perform a first-pass video encoding of the second partial atlas frame sequence by\n accessing, from the first video encoder, the motion vector data associated with the transformation from the first color data image to the second color data image, and \n abstaining from analyzing the transformation from the first depth data image to the second depth data image, and \n \n perform a second-pass video encoding of the second partial atlas frame sequence by encoding, based on the accessed motion vector data,\n the first and second color data images into a second color video stream to be rendered by a second media player device, and \n the first and second depth data images into a second depth video stream to be rendered by the second media player device.
