Abstract: Predictive pre-fetching of streams for 360 degree video is described. User view orientation metadata is obtained for a 360 degree video stream that includes data for a plurality of viewports. Data corresponding to one or more high-resolution frames for a particular one of the viewports is pre-fetched based on the user view orientation metadata and those frames are displayed. The high resolution frames are characterized by a higher resolution than for remaining viewports.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for providing real world assistance by a robot utility and interface device (RUID) are provided. A method provides for identifying a position of a user in a physical environment and a surface within the physical environment for projecting an interactive interface. The method also provides for moving to a location within the physical environment based on the position of the user and the surface for projecting the interactive interface. Moreover, the method provides for capturing a plurality of images of the interactive interface while the interactive interface is being interacted with by the use and for determining a selection of an input option made by the user.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for providing one or more sound component to a viewer within a media presentation space by a robot having one or more speakers. A method includes an operation for establishing a connection to a media device that is presenting media content to the viewer, and an operation for capturing input from a plurality of sensors for obtaining a map of the media presentation space. The method additionally provides for identifying a position of the viewer and a speaker configuration in the media presentation space. The method allows the robot to move to a location based on the map of the media presentation space, the position of the viewer and the speaker configuration. Moreover, the method provides an operation for receiving one or more sound components for presentation to the user.
