SYSTEMS METHODS FOR CAMERA CONTROL USING HISTORICAL OR PREDICTED EVENT DATA
First Claim
1. A method for creating a video feed of an event, comprising:
- receiving event characteristic information about the event and participant information associated with one or more event participants;
receiving video camera configuration and position data from at least a first video camera;
receiving current event data substantially in real time from the event;
generating control signals based on at least one of the event characteristic information, the participant information, and the current event data; and
transmitting the control signals to the at least first video camera to control the operation of the at least first video camera.

Abstract
According to some embodiments, systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program code for controlling a video camera to capture video associated with an event are provided which use historical or predictive data. In some embodiments, historical event information and participant information is received. Video camera configuration and position data is received, as well as current event data. The current event data may be received substantially in real time from the event. Video camera control signals are generated based on at least one of the event information, the participant information, and the current event data. The control signals are transmitted to a video camera to control the operation of the video camera.
