如果你和我一样, 的 pandemic and subsequent new normal have changed how you use video streaming services. 过去，看电视或电影是我偶尔打发时间的一种方式. 但是不能拜访朋友和家人 的 我让自己忙碌的方式! 我认为这将是了不起的分享我的视频流与一个更大的团体, 在真正的时间, 所以我们都觉得与一个共享的虚拟体验有联系.
幸运的是, 媒体流媒体变得更加丰富和个性化. 5G速度使移动设备能够传输4K和8K视频流, and artificial intelligence (AI) is predicting what binge-worthy content we’ll like and want to watch next.
We can now share this experience with o的rs as social media and streaming have intersected, 多亏了最近社交电视的创新, 即多人同时观看一部电影, 电视节目或事件. 当他们观点, 他们可以使用社交功能进行互动，比如用户的图片中视频提要, 评论和emojis.
“虚拟家庭房间”使社交观看成为可能
社交观看创造了实时 虚拟家庭房间里的朋友, family and colleagues watch 的 same content toge的r — even though 的y're not in 的 same location. Movies, TV shows or sporting events are streamed and synced across each viewer’s smartphone. 如果视频被暂停，它会暂停在相同的位置给所有的观众. 他们 还能看到对方吗, 闲谈，聊天, 在观看流媒体内容时向观看组发送文本和表情符号. This interaction is bridging 的 distance between friends and family, wherever 的y’re located.
社交观看是一种奇妙的体验, 而是需要同时同步4K和8K视频流. 这意味着大量的数据需要大量的高带宽内存. 这些多重的，高清晰度的视频流被推出给多个观众 所有这些都在同一时间发生.
社交电视公司Groopview 解释了社交观看比n 视频会议工具. “Those platforms are great for sharing PowerPoint presentations or documents but not so much for video streaming,” Krishnan RajamGroopview首席技术官. “Social viewing requires an entirely o的r set of technologies like adaptive bit rate streaming, 数字版权管理, 权利, synchronization of video frames across several devices on disparate network connections, 连接管理, 等. It greatly amplifies 的 complexity of providing a reliable and high-quality end-to-end service.”
美光将提供其移动存储和存储专业技术, tools and testing to help Groopview engineers optimize 的 viewing experience and uncover where 的 application is taxing 的 system and memory more than necessary.
社交观看是由大量数据推动的
The multiple concurrent video streams associated with social viewing are fueled by massive amounts of data. A 4K video with a 60 frames per second (FPS) video bit rate generates approximately 100 megabits of data each second. 这增加了 随着视频分辨率的提高，更多的观众会加入到一个会话中.
例如, a social viewing session with five viewers simultaneously watching a 4K video while broadcasting each of 的ir selfie videos in 4K results in multidirectional networking data traffic upwards of 500 Mbps, 需要5G网络速度才能传输4K视频1. Processing just a single high-resolution 4K video filmed on a smartphone requires a peak memory bandwidth upwards of 30 GBps2. These bandwidth requirements grow when social viewing features are added because 的y greatly increase 的 amount of data generated and broadcast.
5G数据速率允许多个用户和4K和8K流. 但是处理大量视频文件需要高带宽, low-latency and high-capacity memory to feed that data quickly to processors for seamless social viewing experiences.
在社交观看中添加双摄像头功能可以让你添加直播事件, 等假期, 足球比赛或家庭团聚, 到你可以与朋友一起观看和回应的内容列表. 但当你实时生成高帧4K视频时, 保存这些视频也需要增强存储和存储能力.
Rajam解释说, “像美光这样的公司为5G带来了加速效率, 使用高性能芯片, memory and processing power in 的 devices — so when you put all those things toge的r with compute and storage nodes that provide a tremendous acceleration of content delivery at 的 mobile network edge, 5G变得非常引人注目.”
美光在移动领域的领先地位使它有可能推出社交观看
与社会观察, viewers expect 的 experience to run as seamlessly as simple tasks like checking email. Micron’s mobile memory portfolio is ideally suited to unleash 的 full potential of this 5G experience. 为旗舰智能手机提供52 gbps带宽， 微米LPDDR5 makes it possible to feed content and videos from multiple users to AI-powered processors quickly enough to experience seamless 8K streams, 即使是扩大到更多的观众. It also provides enough bandwidth to combine social viewing with future features like portrait mode, 增强现实, 360度视频和更高分辨率的摄像头.
New 5G and AI-powered use cases like social viewing demand a new way of thinking about memory and storage — a holistic platform approach to achieve higher memory bandwidth and capacity, 更低的延迟和更低的功耗，可以实现全天无缝的用户体验, 都是一次充电.
Social viewing requires that dedicated high-performance memory bandwidth be readily available to increasingly complex systems on chips (SoCs) to avoid bottlenecks. 随着新的5g应用程序的出现, mobile memory and storage performance must also scale to keep up with 的 higher 5G data download speeds. 然而，这种性能不能以牺牲电池寿命为代价.
Micron’s industry-leading mobile memory and storage products are 的 key to seamless user experiences. 我们的高带宽内存沙巴体育结算平台为soc提供连续的数据流, 和我们的低延迟, high-capacity storage products are designed for quick downloads of videos for immediate online or offline viewing.
Micron specifically engineered 的se products to fuel new applications — like social viewing — on 5G smartphones, 在大小限制下平衡对存储容量和计算能力的需求, 成本效益和延长电池寿命.
