Viability analysis of content preparation configurations to deliver 360VR video via MPEG-DASH technology

We present a viability analysis of a content preparation scheme used to smartly distribute mono-and stereoscopic 360VR video using the MPEG-DASH paradigm. Several configurations in which the portion of the scene that is located at the opposite side of the viewport is set to black have been studied. The main goal of the analysis is to estimate the bandwidth savings of these configurations.
