SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING VIDEO PRESENTATION AND VIDEO ANALYTICS FOR LIVE SPORTING EVENTS

Smart overview of the Invention

The invention introduces a system that enhances video presentation and analytics for live sporting events by using multiple cameras to track objects. The data from these cameras is processed by a server to create a comprehensive 3D model of the event. From this model, 2D graphics are generated from various perspectives, providing a detailed visual representation of the event.

Technical Process

Two or more cameras are employed to capture video feeds during the sporting event. These feeds are sent to a server processor that aligns them to form a 3D model of the scene. This model serves as a basis for creating 2D graphics that display the event from different angles, enhancing the viewer's experience and understanding of the event dynamics.

Data Analysis

The system not only visualizes the event but also analyzes the movement of objects within it. By processing the video feeds, the server generates statistical and analytical data related to how objects move. This information is integrated into the 2D graphics, offering insights into performance metrics and movement patterns.

Standardization

A significant feature of this invention is the development of a standard file format that records object movement over time across various sports. This standardization facilitates consistent data analysis and sharing across different platforms and applications, making it easier to compare performances across multiple events.

Applications

The system's ability to provide detailed analytics and visualization from live events can be applied across numerous sports, enhancing broadcasting quality and providing valuable insights for coaches, players, and analysts. The integration of real-time data with visual representation offers an advanced tool for understanding and improving sporting performance.
