Abstract
A method for transmitting virtual reality (VR) content by a device is provided. The method includes obtaining at least two images captured from a target, arranging the at least two images and projecting the at least two images onto a planar surface to configure a 360-degree image corresponding to the VR content, detecting an overlapped region of the at least two images projected and generating rearrangement information about the overlapped region, and transmitting the rearrangement information and the at least two images.
