  • Patent number: 11399053
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides a system and method for providing a real-time digital virtual audience. The system and method may include processing video associated with an event to produce a corresponding data stream, combining the corresponding data stream with at least one sequence of predictability data stream to create a digital framework, processing the digital framework into at least one representation of at least one object depicted in the video, and transmitting the at least one representation to one or more communication devices associated with one or more virtual audience members, wherein the one or more virtual audience members are viewing the same event using their respective communication devices.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8918532
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides a system and method for affecting a result associated with an event. The method may include receiving one or more of a first data transmission associated with a first communication protocol and combining the first data transmissions to create a first data transmission stream. The method may also include receiving one or more of a second data transmission associated with a second communication protocol and combining the second data transmissions to create a second data transmission stream. The first data transmission stream and the second data transmission stream may be combined to create a first combined data transmission stream that may be used to affect a result associated with an event.
