Edge computing for telepresence places processing such as encoding, rendering and reconstruction close to users at the network edge to reduce latency and bandwidth for immersive remote communication.
Semantic Classification

- Edge computing for telepresence moves compute-intensive tasks, such as media encoding, 3D reconstruction and rendering, onto servers located near the user rather than in distant data centres. Shortening the processing distance lowers round-trip latency and can reduce the volume of data sent across the wider network.
- This pattern is combined with mobile networks and content delivery infrastructure to support volumetric and neural telepresence on devices with limited local processing. Trade-offs include the cost and management of distributed edge resources and the need to route sessions to the nearest capable node.
