DTS, Tiledmedia, Viaccess-Orca Join On VR

DTS, a global provider of high-definition audio solutions and a wholly owned subsidiary of Xperi Corporation, Tiledmedia, a provider of flexible and affordable, low-latency delivery of extremely high-resolution video content to consumer devices; and Viaccess-Orca, a leading global solutions provider of OTT and TV platforms, content protection, and advanced data solutions for a personalized TV experience, will demonstrate the latest, most reliable way to deliver best-in-class VR360 audio and video for VR/AR via streaming media at IBC 2017, Sept. 15-19 in Amsterdam.

The collaborative solution can be deployed across current workflows to stream premium VR360 content to mobile devices, anywhere. Viaccess-Orca will offer demos of this new VR streaming solution in Hall 1, Stand 1.A51 throughout the show.

The Viaccess-Orca VO Player uses the Tiledmedia ClearVR video SDK and the DTS audio for VR SDK to deliver high-resolution VR experiences at less than a quarter the bitrate of legacy VR streaming methods with high-quality, ultra-directional, 3D audio rendering that gives the benefits of higher-order ambisonics (HOA) without needing to produce an HOA signal and carry it through the entire workflow. This offers an enhanced experience, yet maintains a backward compatible core that works with millions of deployed VR devices.

DTS audio solutions for VR enable content providers and broadcasters to deliver hi-resolution, immersive, 3D audio in a VR environment on any device that supports streaming.

This VR solution currently enables distribution to existing Android devices. It is extremely bandwidth-efficient, scalable and fully compatible with modern HTTP distribution, and no special servers or edge processing are required.
