Abstract
A system or method for displaying a video segment recorded by a camera device on a display device disposed remotely from the camera device. Video segments may be transmitted over a network to a remote viewing location. Video segments sent from a plurality of camera devices may be compiled by a server and displayed on a single display device. Video segments may auto-scroll such that a user need not interact with this display device to begin playback of a video segment. The technology may be used for such purposes as an athlete reviewing videos captured by one or more coaches or spectators.
Claims13
A method for using an athletic training system, comprising:
- providing a video control system for receiving video content from camera devices of one or more authorized users and controlling delivery of said video content on one or more display devices;
- disposing a first display device at a first location adjacent an athletic theatre for use by athletes in reviewing video recordings of the athletes performing athletic activities at the athletic theatre;
- providing an identification code, to a first user of said authorized users, for use in enabling said first user to access said video control system using a first camera device;
- receiving, at said video control system, a network transmission, from said first camera device using said identification code, said network transmission including a first video recording of a first athlete performing a first athletic activity at said athletic theatre, said first video recording being obtained at a second location, different than said first location, adjacent said athletic theatre, said network transmission between said first camera device and said video control system involving at least one wireless network link;
- and
- routing said network transmission to said first display device as a function of said identification code.
A training system for athletes, comprising:
- a first display device for displaying video recordings, wherein said first display device is disposed at a first location adjacent an athletic theatre for use by athletes in reviewing video recordings of the athletes performing athletic activities at the athletic theatre;
- a video control system, operatively associated with said first display device, for receiving, via a wireless network, video recordings of said athletes performing said athletic activities at said athletic theatre from authorized users, and controlling said first display device to display said recordings free from any contemporaneous user inputs at said first display device;
- a first camera device operated by a first authorized user;
- a second camera device operated by a second authorized user;
- and
- a second display device;
- wherein:
- the first display device is associated with a first identification code and the second display device is associated with a second identification code;
- the first identification code is selected on the first camera device;
- the first camera device transmits a first video recording with the first identification code;
- the second identification code is selected on the second camera device,
- the second camera device transmits a second recording with the second identification code;
- the video control system receives the first video recording with the first identification code and the second video recording with the second identification code and is operable to direct:
- the first video recording to the first display device as a function of the first identification code;
- and
- the second video recording to the second display device as a function of the second identification code.
A training system for athletes, comprising:
- a first camera device and a second camera device;
- a display device;
- and
- a video control system;
- wherein:
- the display device is disposed at a first location adjacent an athletic theatre for use by athletes in reviewing video recordings of the athletes performing athletic activities at the athletic theatre, is associated with an identification code and comprises a first subscreen and a second subscreen;
- the first camera device transmits a first video recording and the identification code;
- the second camera device transmits a second video recording and the identification code;
- and
- the video control system is operable to:
- receive the first video recording, the second video recording, and the identification code;
- generate, in response to identifying that the first video recording and the second video recording are routed to the display device as a function of the identification code, a composite video feed, wherein the composite video feed comprises the first video recording mapped to the first subscreen and the second video recording mapped to the second subscreen;
- and
- transmit the composite video feed to the display device.
