A Novel Split Rendering XR Framework with Occlusion Support

ABSTRACT

Extended Reality (XR) applications, especially the revolutionary Mixed Reality technology, with a new level of immersive experiences and novel ways of interactions can reshape our society.  However, the required quality of user experience and the desired high visual fidelity pose several challenges. In this demo, we present a novel edge/cloud-based XR platform providing essential features for future applications.  During the course of the demo, we highlight the advantages of split rendering and the challenges of occlusion support in dynamic environments. We showcase different solutions, reveal pros/cons of the approaches and analyze their feasibility in different application areas.
