Automated field of view estimation from game participant perspectives

A computing system comprising:

• a network controller to receive a multi-camera video feed of a game;
• a processor coupled to the network controller;
• and
• a memory including a set of executable program instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the computing system to:
• identify a player captured in the multi-camera video feed;
• estimate a first field of view from a perspective of the identified player for a selected frame of the multi-camera video feed;
• and
• automatically generate, based on the first field of view, a camera path for a replay of the selected frame from the perspective of the identified player.

A semiconductor apparatus comprising:

• one or more substrates;
• and
• logic coupled to the one or more substrates, wherein the logic is implemented at least partly in configurable logic or fixed-functionality hardware logic, the logic coupled to the one or more substrates to:
• identify a player captured in a multi-camera video feed of a game that involves the identified player;
• estimate a first field of view from a perspective of the identified player for a selected frame of the multi-camera video feed;
• and
• automatically generate, based on the first field of view, a camera path for a replay of the selected frame from the perspective of the identified player.

At least one computer readable storage medium comprising a set of executable program instructions which, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to:

• identify a player captured in a multi-camera video feed of a game that involves the identified player;
• estimate a first field of view from a perspective of the identified player for a selected frame of the multi-camera video feed;
• and
• automatically generate, based on the first field of view, a camera path for a replay of the selected frame from the perspective of the identified player.
