Re: 360 Degree Video... What do you guys think?
There are some technologies that can make this possible over FMS with a few clever tricks.
1st is only rendering what you have to. Think about it, your eyes don't have a 360 field of view, so why would you send the entire 360 video? Only send the data you have to, along with a bit extra to account for if the user moves between frame timings. This is how facebook does its 360 video.
2nd is compression. I've had success with LZ4 sending high-quality image frames over the network in small sizes. With some tuning and a good enough processor (the Jetson TK1 is on FIRST Choice now, why not take advantage of those CUDA cores?), it is very possible to send a 720p+ image over FMS and have it decoded on the other end with a framerate well beyond anything that you will get with an AXIS camera or similar.
Is it practical? Nope. Is it possible? Yup.
