1. A system comprising:
- a camera device, wherein the camera device captures a base image of a real event and camera device instrumentation data associated with the base image;
a segment identifier module, wherein the segment identifier module receives a transmission of camera instrumentation data and performance instrumentation data related to an object within the real event, wherein the performance instrumentation data is received from one or more sensors coupled to the object and defines, based upon the camera instrumentation data and the performance instrumentation data, a visual segment within the base image;
a rendering module that renders an overlay image within the visual segment of the base image; and
a compositing module that receives the base image and the overlay image, and that simultaneously outputs the base image and the overlay image,wherein the performance instrumentation data comprises force exerted on the object.

8. A method for identifying a visual segment, said method comprising:
-
capturing a base image of a real event and camera device instrumentation data associated with the base image; defining the visual segment within the base image based upon camera instrumentation data and performance instrumentation data, wherein the performance instrumentation data is related to an object within the real event, and wherein the performance instrumentation data is received from one or more sensors coupled to the object; rendering an overlay image within the visual segment of the base image; and generating simultaneously the base image and the overlay image, wherein the performance instrumentation data comprises force exerted on the object. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
