Abstract
Live media streaming is a field that recently has had a great impact in the scientific community, especially in the case of interactive media streaming. In this paper we propose a reference architecture conceptualizing an immersive view effect by considering heterogeneous tracking devices and enriched movement control over heterogeneous stream image sources. A proof-of-concept prototype implementation of the reference architecture is presented, called Live Interactive FramE (LIFE), illustrating the potential and value of the immersive view concept. Our work is part of the DESEOS research project that aims at applying an Ambient Assisted Living paradigm to a targeted scenario of hospitalised children. The main goal of LIFE is reducing stress and isolation during hospitalisation by enabling an immersive view of school activities via live media streaming. Functional and security aspects of LIFE are presented along with details of implementation and performance evaluation. Conclusions of experiments show that LIFE enables practical secure media streaming solution with optimal video quality settings.
