Abstract

A method of a virtual reality (VR)-related device is provided, which includes setting a reference direction; receiving data; determining whether a direction of the data and the reference direction are different; modifying the direction of the data if the direction of the data and the reference direction are different; and transmitting data having the modified direction.

Claims (48)

1. A method of a device associated with a virtual reality (VR), comprising:

identifying reference direction information of the device;

obtaining first data;

determining whether a difference between direction information of the first data and the reference direction information is larger than a threshold, the direction information of the first data being determined based on a direction of the device at a time of obtaining the first data;

modifying, based on the difference, the direction information of the first data when the difference is larger than the threshold; and

transmitting second data including the modified direction information and the first data.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein modifying the direction information of the first data comprises:

calculating the difference between the direction information of the first data and the reference direction information; and

modifying the direction information of the first data based on the calculated difference.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second data includes the modified direction information for each playback time.

4. A device associated with a virtual reality (VR), comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

identify reference direction information of the device,

obtain first data,

determine whether a difference between direction information of the first data and the reference direction information is larger than a threshold, the direction information of the first data being determined based on a direction of the device at a time of obtaining the first data,

modify, based on the difference, the direction information of the first data when the difference is larger than the threshold, and

transmit second data including the modified direction information and the first data.

5. The device of claim 4 , wherein the controller is further configured to:

calculate the difference between the direction information of the first data and the reference direction information, and

modify the direction information of the first data based on the calculated difference.

6. The device of claim 4 , wherein the second data includes the modified direction information for each playback time.

7. A method of a user equipment (UE), comprising:

obtaining data;

identifying direction information of the data, the direction information of the data being determined based on a direction of a device for generating the data;

determining whether a difference between the direction information of the data and a reference direction information is larger than a threshold; and

adjusting, based on the difference, a direction detection sensor of the UE when the difference is larger than the threshold.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein adjusting the direction detection sensor comprises:

identifying the difference between the direction information of the data and the reference direction information; and

modifying the direction information of the data based on the identified difference.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein identifying the direction information of the data comprises:

identifying whether the data includes direction meta data;

parsing the direction meta data when the data includes the direction meta data; and

identifying the direction information of the data based on the parsed results.

10. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

obtain data,

identify direction information of the data, the direction information of the data being determined based on a direction of a device for generating the data,

determine whether a difference between the direction information of the data and reference direction information is larger than a threshold, and

adjust, based on the difference, a direction detection sensor of the UE when the difference is larger than the threshold.

11. The UE of claim 10 , wherein the controller is further configured to:

identify the difference between the direction information of the data and the reference direction information, and

modify the direction information of the data based on the identified difference.

12. The UE of claim 10 , wherein the controller is further configured to:

identify whether the data includes direction meta data,

parse the direction meta data when the data includes the direction meta data, and

identify the direction information of the data based on the parsed results.
