1. A method for controlling playback of a temporal stream with a user interface device, the temporal stream captured at an event site, the method comprising:
- selecting a point of interest at the event site with the user interface device;
identifying a time that an action occurred at the selected point of interest;
identifying an image from the temporal stream based on the identified time; and
displaying the identified image on the user interface device.

Abstract
A method for controlling playback of a temporal stream with a user interface device. The temporal stream is captured at an event site. A point of interest at the event site is selected with the user interface device. A time that an action occurred at the selected point of interest is identified. An image from the temporal stream is identified based on the identified time. The identified image is displayed on the user interface device.

16. A method for capturing and playing back a temporal stream comprising:
-
capturing a temporal stream of images at an event site;
associating a time of capture with each image in the captured temporal stream;
storing location information identifying a plurality of spatial locations at the event site;
associating at least one time with each spatial location;
identifying one of the spatial locations at the event site with a user interface device;
identifying at least one image in the captured temporal stream based on the identified spatial location, the at least one time associated with the identified spatial location, and the times of capture associated with the images in the temporal stream; and
displaying an image on the user interface device based on the identified at least one image. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A method for playing back a temporal stream of images captured at an event site, each captured image including a plurality of regions and an associated time of capture, the method comprising:
-
providing mapping data that associates one of a plurality of spatial locations at the event site with each region of each captured image;
associating at least one time with each one of the plurality of spatial locations;
transmitting the temporal stream of images and the mapping data to a user interface device;
displaying the temporal stream of images on the user interface device;
selecting one of the plurality of spatial locations with the user interface device;
identifying at least one image in the captured temporal stream based on the selected spatial location, the at least one time associated with the selected spatial location, and the time of capture associated with the images in the temporal stream; and
displaying an image on the user interface device based on the identified at least one image. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)

-
associating at least one time with each one of a plurality of spatial locations at the event site;
providing mapping data that associates a time with each region of each captured image based on the times associated with the plurality of spatial locations;
transmitting the temporal stream of images and the mapping data to a user interface device;
displaying the temporal stream of images on the user interface device;
selecting one of the regions in one of the displayed images with the user interface device;
transmitting a time identifier from the user interface device, the time identifier identifying the time associated with the selected region;
identifying at least one image in the captured temporal stream based on the time identifier and the time of capture associated with the images in the temporal stream; and
displaying an image on the user interface device based on the identified at least one image.

24. A device for capturing and playing back a temporal stream comprising:
-
an image sensor for capturing a temporal stream of image frames at an event site and capturing an image of a point of interest at the event site, the image sensor configured to capture more image information in the image frames than viewed through the device by a user during capture of the temporal stream;
a controller for identifying image frames in the temporal stream that include the point of interest based on the captured image of the point of interest, the controller configured to process the identified image frames to identify at least one image frame that shows motion near the point of interest; and
a display for displaying an image based on the identified at least one image frame, the displayed image including the point of interest and additional image information that was not visible through the device by the user during capture of the temporal stream. - View Dependent Claims (25)

-
selecting a point of interest at the event site;
identifying a time that motion occurred at the selected point of interest;
identifying an image from the temporal stream based on the identified time; and
displaying the identified image.
