Remote rendering for VR is a technology that enables high-quality VR on low-powered devices. This is realized by offloading heavy computation and rendering to high-powered servers that stream VR as video to the clients. This article focuses on one specific issue in remote rendering when imperfect frame timing between client and server may cause recurring frame drops. We propose a system design that executes synchronously and eliminates the aforementioned problem. The design is presented, and an implementation is tested using various networks and hardware. The design cannot drop frames due to synchronization issues but may on the other hand stall if temporal disturbances occur, e.g., due to network delay spikes or loss. However, experiments confirm that such events can remain rare given an appropriate environment.

  • Windows 10 Netflix Download Forget Netflix! This Microsoft App Adds Hundreds of Hours of Entertainment to Windows 10
    windows 10 netflix download Forget Netflix! This Microsoft app adds hundreds of hours of entertainment to Windows 10. With many big changes planned for Windows 10 PCs this year, device owners are eager to learn more about what’s to come. And this week, Microsoft confirmed plans to extend one of its most popular features so that it can run as an easy-to-download app on Windows 10 PCs. The Xbox app can be found on the Windows Store and currently allows gamers to manage their accounts and play games. However, these video games have always required special graphics cards and specific hardware settings to be enjoyed on a PC. But that will all change in 2021 with the announcement of a growing game streaming service. Similar to Netflix, Xbox Cloud Gaming makes it possible to stream a video game over the Internet rather than through hardware. The service isn’t free, but is bundled with something called Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which has proven to be very popular on Xbox consoles. The Xbox Game Pass is a bit like Netflix in that you pay a monthly subscription to have unlimited access to a library of video games you can play. And if you bought the Ultimate version, you get access to the Xbox Cloud Gaming service, which allows you to access this library from your phone, PC or tablet. This new service is still in beta, but Microsoft is now testing a version that can be used via the Windows 10 Xbox App. This means that soon; anyone can buy an Xbox Game Pass, boot up their PC, and play any game in the library over the Internet.

Delivery of games over such a medium negates the need of requiring dedicated video game consoles or computers with robust 3D graphics hardware. Tangible hardware requirements for traditional video game playing are currently undergoing a supply shortage due to a multitude of factors, particularly related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This project evaluates the cost of using cloud services vs. using a physical video game console. Also, this article evaluates whether players can come up with a custom solution utilizing VPS (virtual private server) providers such as Amazon Web Services. By utilizing the diffusion of innovations theory, we evaluate how the common actors of the video game industry try to replicate the traditional video game playing experience, but in a cloud setting.
