IEEE 1857.9-2021

This standard defines a set of tools for efficient coding of immersive visual content, as well as the corresponding decoding and reconstructing procedure. The immersive visual content includes, but is not limited to, panorama video, free-view video, light field, and three-dimensional (3D) model and other kinds of synthetic visual contents. The coding efficiency is measured by counting the data rates under target visual quality of immersive visual content.
