A complete reference for end-to-end 3D visual experience

3D Visual Communications provides a comprehensive coverage of major theories and technologies involved in a lifecycle of the 3D video content delivery. The book showcases the technologies used in an end-to-end 3D video communication system, including the fundamentals of 3D visual representation, the latest 3D video coding techniques, relevant communication infrastructure and networks and 3D quality of experience. Specifically, this book covers the following four important areas:

• 3D video coding and communications
• 3D graphics/gaming and mobile communications
• end-to-end 3D ecosystem (including 3D display, 3D player, networking facility and 3D quality issues)
• future communications and networks advances for emerging 3D experience

It is essential reading for engineers involved in the research, design and development of 3D visual coding and 3D visual transmission systems and technologies, as well as academic and industrial researchers.
