Abstract
Video from multiple locations in a venue, in which multiple individuals are engaged in activities, such as athletic performances or non-sporting activities, is stored and edited, using sensor data from participants and tag data from spectators, to create individualized video programs of athletic performances of individuals. Each camera provides a video feed that is continuously stored. Each video feed is stored in a sequence of data files in computer storage, which data files are created in regular time intervals. Each file is accessible using an identifier of the camera and a time interval. Similarly, data from sensors and tagging devices are continuously received and stored in a database. The database stores, for each sensor, an identifier of each individual detected in the proximity of the sensor and the time at which the individual was detected. Each sensor is associated with one or more cameras. Tag data is similarly stored from tagging devices manipulated by spectators.
