Time stamped imagery assembly for course performance video replay
First Claim
1. A method for time stamped imagery assembly comprising:
- acquiring different images from different cameras disposed about an activity course traversed by a moving object;
time stamping each of the different images;
repeatedly acquiring position and time stamp data for the moving object as the moving object traverses the activity course; and
,assembling the different images acquired from the different cameras in a single sequence of images with positions in the sequence determined by correlating time stamps for each of the images with the acquired position and time stamp data of the moving object.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to video imagery assembly for course oriented activities and provide a method, system and computer program product for time stamped imagery assembly for course performance video replay. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for time stamped imagery assembly can include acquiring different images from different cameras disposed about an activity course traversed by a moving object and time stamping each of the different images. The method also can include repeatedly acquiring position and time stamp data for the moving object as the moving object traverses the activity course. Finally, the method can include assembling the different images acquired from the different cameras in a single sequence of images with positions in the sequence determined by correlating time stamps for each of the images with the acquired position and time stamp data of the moving object.
