Same World Broadcasting: An Internet Broadcasting System for Real-Time Distributed Video Compositions

Recently, live video broadcasting is frequently used due to the COVID-19 pandemic. More realistic and comfortable experiments can be realized if multiple real-time videos from different places are displayed on a single screen. This paper calls such live broadcasting "same world broadcasting" as if all objects exist in the same space. In this paper, we propose a distributed system for the same world broadcasting. We evaluate the proposed system using the experimental implementation in a LAN environment and an open testbed environment. The experiment results show that the proposed system can reduce the processing time to collect and compose many real-time videos.
