Abstract

Disclosed is a system that streams true three-dimensional (“3D”) image data over a data network in a manner that preserves the dimensionality and detail of a dynamic and changing 3D scene. The system generates the 3D image data to represent the 3D scene, and streams different set of the 3D image data that are within different viewing frustums requested by different devices. The system generates updates to the 3D image data based on changes occurring at different parts of the 3D scene. The system streams a first update to the first device in response to image data updated by the first update being within the first device's viewing frustum, and streams a second update to the second device in response to image data updated by the second update being within the second device's viewing frustum.
