An adaptive splitting and transmission control method for rendering point model on mobile devices

The physical characteristics of current mobile devices impose significant constraints on the processing of 3D graphics. The remote rendering framework is considered a better choice in this regard. However, limited battery life is a critical constraint when using this approach. Earlier methods based on this framework suffered from high transmission frequency. We present a software solution to this problem with a key element, an Adaptive Splitting and Error Handling Mechanism that indirectly reserves the electricity in mobile devices by reducing the transmission frequency. To achieve this goal, a geometric relation is maintained that tightly couples several consecutive Levels of Detail (LOD). Adaptive Splitting can then approximate the LOD from a much coarser split base under the guidance of the relation. Data transmission between the server and mobile device occurs only when out-ranged LOD is about to be displayed. Our remote rendering architecture, based on the above approach, trades splitting process for transmission, thereby alleviating the problem of frequent data transmission.
