Constructing photorealistic Free-Viewpoint Videos (FVVs) of dynamic scenes from a set of posed 2D images has been an intriguing yet challenging task in computer vision. Methods based on neural rendering achieve high-fidelity image quality in FVV construction. However, most of these methods are unable to achieve real-time rendering and often require complete video sequences to train. Despite the existence of some online training methods capable of rendering FVVs in real time, they struggle to meet the requirements for storage and training time for downstream applications. To overcome this problem, we propose Struct-GStream, which can achieve efficient FVV streaming using structured 3D Gaussians (3DGs). Specifically, we introduce dynamic anchor points to generate structured 3DGs to construct basic scenes and model approximate scene movements based on the assumption of local rigidity in object motion. Besides, we introduce a global free 3DGs patching strategy involving free 3DGs' generation, pruning, and optimization to patch and model deficient areas and emerging objects. Our method achieves fast training at low bitrates while maintaining high rendering quality. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Struct-GStream significantly outperforms existing online training methods for FVV construction in terms of training time, storage, and rendering quality while maintaining competitive rendering speed.
