Abstract

We present a framework for sharing immersive live telepresence experiences to groups of remote users for arbitrary-sized environments. Our framework builds upon RGB-D data capture of the local environment (by a person or robot) and involves real-time 3D reconstruction, scalable data streaming and visualization to a multitude of remote users at modest bandwidth requirements and low latency while preserving the visual quality of current real-time reconstruction approaches.
