Abstract

A network system includes: a user interface configured to display a common program; a control unit coupled to the user interface, configured to match a captured video to related content of the common program; and a communication unit coupled to the control unit, configured to share the captured video in a collaborative space.

Claims

1. A network system comprising:

a user interface configured to display a common program;

a control unit coupled to the user interface, configured to match a captured video to related content of the common program; and

a communication unit coupled to the control unit, configured to share the captured video in a collaborative space.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to match the captured video to an event highlight.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to match a cheer to the related content.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to match a jeer to the related content.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the communication unit is configured to share reactions in the collaborative space.

6. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein:

the control unit is configured to modify the captured video with user content; and

the communication unit is configured to share the captured video modified with user content in a collaborative space.

7. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the control unit is configured to match the captured video to an event highlight.

8. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the control unit is configured to match a cheer to the related content.

9. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the control unit is configured to match a jeer to the related content.

10. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the communication unit is configured to share reactions in the collaborative space.

11. A method of operation of a network system comprising:

displaying a common program;

matching, with a control unit, a captured video to related content of the common program; and

sharing the captured video in a collaborative space.

12. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein matching the captured video to the related content of the common program includes matching the captured video to an event highlight.

13. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein matching the captured video to the related content of the common program includes matching a cheer to the related content.

14. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein matching the captured video to the related content of the common program includes matching a jeer to the related content.

15. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein sharing the captured video in a collaborative space includes sharing reactions in the collaborative space.

16. A method of operation of a network system comprising:

displaying a common program;

matching, with a control unit, a captured video to related content of the common program;

modifying the captured video with user content; and

sharing the captured video modified with user content in a collaborative space.

17. The method as claimed in claim 16 wherein matching the captured video to the related content of the common program includes matching the captured video to an event highlight.

18. The method as claimed in claim 16 wherein matching the captured video to the related content of the common program includes matching a cheer to the related content.

19. The method as claimed in claim 16 wherein matching the captured video to the related content of the common program includes matching a jeer to the related content.

20. The method as claimed in claim 16 wherein sharing the captured video in a collaborative space includes sharing reactions in the collaborative space.
