Qualcomm has already had an article on this technology written on their site and they say it, the future of mobile computing. now that's a line to think off widely.
EXTENDED REALITY is a term encapsulating virtual reality(VR), augmented reality(AR), mixed reality(MR) and everything in between.
One day XR glasses can replace every other display in your life, including that big tv in your living room.-qualcomm
Boundless XR creates immersive mobile XR experiences with photorealistic visuals by combining on-device processing, 5G, and edge cloud processing. The Wireless Edge transformation, which introduces a new era in distributed computing powered by 5G,on-device processing, and edge cloud processing, can offer an optimized solution.
The XR visual processing pipeline is both compute-intensive and latency-sensitive, Splitting the processing correctly requires a system approach.
When an XR user moves his head, the on-device processing determines the head pose and sends it to the edge cloud through a low-latency, high quality-of-service 5G link. The edge cloud will use the head pose to partially render the next frame, encode the data, and send it back to the XR headset. The XR headset will decode the latest available data, and based on the latest head pose, which is being generated at a high frequency, do any further rendering and adjustment to minimize motion-to-photon latency. As a reminder, motion-to-photon processing happens completely on the device to meet the less-than-20 ms-latency requirement, which is the general threshold for avoiding user discomfort.
5G is crucial for this with its low latency, high capacity, and high quality of service. As 5G deployment matures and coverage becomes more ubiquitous, consumers can experience photorealistic XR in more places and can rest assured that premium standalone XR experiences will always be available through on-device processing.
There is a synergy from the XR ecosystem working together and a big incentive everyone benefits from increased consumer adoption.
In the end, The big benefit will be revolutionary experiences for consumers, such as real-time interactive collaboration, multi-player gaming with photorealistic graphics, next-gen 6-DoF video, immersive education, and personalized shopping like never before. I’m excited about what’s possible and look forward to working with the rest of the ecosystem to make our vision a reality.
