Multisensory 360° Videos Under Varying Resolution Levels Enhance Presence.

Omnidirectional videos have become a leading multimedia format for Virtual Reality applications. While live 360 videos offer a unique immersive experience, streaming of omnidirectional content at high resolutions is not always feasible in bandwidth-limited networks. While in the case of flat videos, scaling to lower resolutions works well, 360 video quality is seriously degraded because of the viewing distances involved in head-mounted displays.
