What VR Content Works Best With AI PT?
VR videos starring people work best. Such as dancing or with a main character. It won’t work with nature or travel content as the AI system needs to recognise what elements to keep and what to remove.
Currently the DeoVR team decide which content should be processed by AI. The algorithm works quickly, usually taking around the length of the video to apply the PT mask.
