Overview of Immersive Media
Examples of Immersive Media Use Cases
- 360-degree live streaming: Companies are now able to live-stream events, such as concerts or sporting matches, to a variety of consumption platforms with high visual fidelity.
- AR-guided service procedures: AR offers a strong potential for guiding factory workers, warehouse employees, and technicians in daily procedures, equipment operation, and maintenance tasks, using instructions overlaid on AR head-mounted displays or smart glasses. Guidance can be delivered by video, audio, or as text lists of steps in a procedure. More sophisticated applications can provide immediate feedback by observing and commenting on worker actions.
- VR enhanced location-based experiences: On-premises immersive experiences are being used broadly in a number of consumer-focused ways. The number of VR arcades has been growing globally, as have the number of businesses augmenting tourist destination experiences.

Getting Started with Dockerfiles
To help developers get started with setting up a server image and configuring everything needed, we have created Dockerfiles to build containers that are easy to evaluate on private or public clouds.
