Abstract:
Augmented Reality and Mixed Reality (AR/MR) headsets are transforming computing by enabling immersive 3D experiences, yet inherent size and power limitations prevent them from matching desktop systems in delivering complex graphics. As a result, many graphics-intensive applications cannot run natively on these devices. Remote rendering offers a promising alternative by offloading heavy 3D graphics computations to a server and streaming the rendered results to AR/MR headsets. However, conventional remote rendering approaches often suffer from considerable interaction latency over wireless networks, making them unsuitable for latency-sensitive applications. This paper introduces a novel low-latency remote rendering system that enables real-time 3D graphics on AR/MR headsets. By leveraging image-based rendering with advanced 3D image warping techniques, our system synthesizes headset displays from server-generated depth images. Experimental results demonstrate that our approach significantly reduces interaction latency while maintaining high rendering quality, achieved through the careful optimization of multiple-depth image generation strategies. |
