Light field visualization has progressed and developed significantly in the past years. At the time of this paper, light field displays are utilized in the industry and they are commercially available as well. Although their appearance on the consumer market is approaching, many potential applications of light field technology have not yet been addressed, such as video streaming. In this paper, we present our research on the dynamic adaptive streaming of light field video. In order to evaluate the presented concept of quality switching, we carried out a series of subjective tests, where test participants were shown light field videos containing stallings and switches in spatial and angular resolution.
