In accordance to MPEG-I immersive standard roadmap, MPEG has submitted the Final Draft International Standard (FDIS) of MIV (ISO/IEC 23090-12) to ISO for publication. During the meeting, MPEG Video group has also progressed on the Verification Test definition which will allow the Advisory Group AG05 “MPEG Visual Quality Assessment” to assess the final status of the standard in early 2022 by verifying its performance compared to existing standards, namely in this case MV-HEVC. In parallel, the group has iterated on an improved working draft for MIV bitstream conformance in view of the ISO/IEC 23090-23 “Conformance and Reference Software for MPEG Immersive Video”. MPEG Video group has also updated use cases and requirements for a MIV 2nd edition and issued a new Call For MPEG immersive Video test materials.
