La publicité programmatique représente une avancée majeure dans le domaine du marketing digital. Elle utilise des algorithmes sophistiqués et des données en temps réel pour automatiser l'achat et la vente d'espaces publicitaires en ligne. Cette technologie permet aux annonceurs de cibler précisément leur audience et d'optimiser leurs campagnes en temps réel. Au cœur de ce système se trouvent les plateformes d'achat programmatique (DSP) et les plateformes de vente programmatique (SSP). Les DSP permettent aux annonceurs de gérer leurs campagnes sur plusieurs réseaux publicitaires à partir d'une seule interface, tandis que les SSP aident les éditeurs à maximiser la valeur de leur inventaire publicitaire.

[A] 360-degree video can provide viewers an immersed experience. For example, [a] 360-degree video can provide a viewer with a virtual reality experience, putting the viewer in a virtually different time and/or place. As another example, [a] 360-degree video can provide a viewer with a first-person view of video content captured by a remote device (e.g., an unmanned aerial vehicle, or other device). One method for capturing [a] 360-degree video is to use an omnidirectional camera. Omnidirectional cameras can capture a wide field of view with just a few lenses. The resulting images exhibit a fisheye effect.

CONT

A user experiences a 360° video by rotating the camera about the center as well as in effect rotating the perspective or FOV [field-of-view] while viewing the video. According to an embodiment of the … invention, the camera, or view, is changed based on user input such as by using a mouse, keyboard, mobile device, controller, head-mounted display, or virtual reality headset. In this way, the end user adjusts the view manually or directly. Camera, or view orientation changes provide meaningful insight into how a user experiences a 360° video.
