Microsoft Azure Cloud Customization for VR Content Rendering

Microsoft approached Intelivita to help support the Art of Work projects, a movement designed to demonstrate how the Azure cloud server could be used in collaboration with artists, designers and small business to demonstrate their portfolio to the world.

The project required the use of Virtual Reality, with 360° rendered videos provided by the client and delivered via Windows Mixed Reality Devices and Surface tablets running Windows OS systems. The project, from the outset, focussed on a need to deliver an experience of the highest quality, which required a solution that could support the high-quality videos provided to Intelivita. h256 5k videos were provided, which caused playback difficulties for the devices, with the encoder being identified as the issue. Streaming of videos, as opposed to locally loaded, also proved a challenge.

The project was delivered to the Client quality and commercial requirements, and the Art of Work project is moving from strength to strength. We highly recommend you check it out!
