More Information
Summary:A method and system are described where graphics, for example, fiducials, are placed within the context of panoramic video footage such that those graphics convey meaningful and relevant information, such as first down lines, sidelines, end zone plane, three-point line, goal line, blue line, positional environmental, or biometric information. Graphics may also signify the status of event, such as whether a first down was made or whether a play was overturned. The system includes one or more cameras connected to a computer that also receives synchronized sensory data from one or more environmental or positional sensors. The fiducials may be based upon the content and context of the video, or augmented via the use of external sensors which may be aggregated by the computer, with graphics being generated and displayed on a frame-by-frame basis for the purposes of disseminating information and enhancing the live production.
