Abstract
A system is provided in which locally-generated graphics may be displayed on a user's equipment. The user's equipment may be based on a set-top box and television or other user television equipment, a personal computer or handheld computing device or other user computer equipment, or a cellular telephone with a display or other user telephone equipment. The locally-generated graphics may be displayed as an overlay on top of video or as wrap-around graphics on the same screen as a reduced-size video window. The video and the graphics may be related to wagering and in particular may be related to horse racing. The user may interactively wager on horse races with the user equipment.
