Highlight Five: Immersive Experience A metaverse scene that approximates reality
Different from the online games we are accustomed to, the identity system, social system and anytime, anywhere demand requires us to place users under the same server as much as possible and ensure a low-latency, high-immersion user experience. The main venue of the Baidu Create Conference uses spatial sound field reconstruction, AI acoustic modeling and other technologies, and does its best to achieve a more realistic sense of space, layering and immersion.
With the help of data transmission algorithm tuning and local rendering engine tuning, the Baidu Create Conference supports mutual visibility and real-time interaction based on different locations of participants under the condition of 100,000 user scale gathering, realizing large-scale real-time status synchronization without triggering broadcast storms.
If you wear headphones, you can immediately experience the immersive sound visual effects of 100,000 people in the venue; if you turn on the microphone, you can immediately connect to the microphone to achieve multi-person voice communication. As the user moves around, the user will also meet more people and hear new chat content, simulating real-world sound scenes.
