Holographic Telepresence
Volumetric 3D Video and Digital Avatar Streaming
Standardized service framework for transmitting real-time 3D point clouds and volumetric holographic video meshes over 5G-Advanced networks.
Technical Explanation
Volumetric telepresence streams 3D mesh geometry and point clouds rather than flat 2D pixels, allowing viewers to walk around live remote speakers. Rel-18 studies volumetric point-cloud compression (V-PCC and G-PCC) transport over 5G, establishing specialized QoS flows that synchronize point cloud updates with sub-millisecond tactile interactions.
Key Functions
- Transports live 3D volumetric point clouds and dynamic polygonal meshes over 5G
- Integrates ISO/IEC MPEG V-PCC compression standards into 3GPP QoS streaming profiles
- Allows viewers to view holographic speakers from any 3D angle with parallax depth
- Supports high-bandwidth point cloud delivery reaching hundreds of megabits per second
Specifications
3GPP TR 26.928, TS 26.114 (Rel-18)
