Abstract: A head-mounted display image delivery system in combination with a head-mounted display (HMD) device, the image delivery system and the HMD device being local to one another. The HMD device includes: one or more displays; one or more sensors to determine movement, position and attitude of the display; and one or more image inputs configured to receive image data for direct display on the one or more displays without image processing by the HMD from the image delivery system. The image delivery system is configured to communicate a stereoscopic image to the HMD system to convey image information to a wearer.

Abstract: A virtual world environment unit, and related methods, operable to simulate an actual live event in substantially real-time is disclosed. Also disclosed is an interactive media system configured to present a substantially real-time simulation of an actual live event involving a moveable object in an arena. Further disclosed is a method of providing and/or viewing a substantially real-time simulation of an actual live event involving a moveable object in an arena.

Abstract: An interactive media system configured to present a substantially real-time simulation of an actual live event involving a moveable object in an arena, the system comprising: a tag attachable to a moveable object involved in an actual live event in an arena; one or more base stations located relative to the arena and operable to receive a signal from the tag; a location platform configured to determine the location of the tag in the arena based on the signal received from the tag by the or each base station, and to output location data representing a location of the tag in the arena; a virtual world environment unit to simulate the actual live event including the arena, the object, and movement of the object in the arena using the location data for the tag; and an access interface in communication with the virtual world environment unit, the access interface being arranged to provide a user with access to the simulated arena and to permit the user to observe the simulated event in substantially real-time.
