SYSTEMS FOR REVIEWING SPORTING ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS

摘要

The system for reviewing incidents in sporting activities uses a sound detector (24) carried by a moving carrier, particularly an umpire (20, 21), to detect predetermined sounds produced by agents (ball 11, goal post 12, timer's siren) external to the moving carrier during the course of the sporting activity and to transmit the sound data signals for remote recording. A video image capture and recording system (35) captures and records sequences of images of the sporting activity for later retrieval and replay. A replay system (40) retrieves video image data and present by means of a display (46) a sequence of images around the time of an incident of interest, and also generates and manifests also by means of the display (46) sound information in synchronism with the sequence of images around the time of the incident of interest. Time shifter (50) corrects for different time of travel of the predetermined sound to the detector compared to instantaneous video image capture.
