The Joint Video Exploration Team (JVET) of ITU-T VCEG (Q6/16) and ISO/IEC MPEG (JTC 1/SC 29/WG 11) is studying the potential need to include 360-degree video coding technologies in the future video coding standard. The JVET has established a 360Lib software package that can perform projection format conversion between various projection formats as a standalone conversion tool, or in combination with encoding and decoding using HM or JEM reference software.

The initial technologies already deployed can begin to fulfill the very high commercial expectations on VR services and applications if standards-based interoperability for certain aspects around VR is required.
