Generating virtual reality and augmented reality content for a live event

Abstract:

A content visualization system generates visual content for a visualization device based on visual content of an event. The content visualization system collects visual content and source perspective data from visual content sources. The visualization device requests visual content from the content visualization system by providing device perspective data to the content visualization system. The content visualization system generates visual content for the visualization device based on the visual content from the visual content sources, the source perspective data, and the device perspective data. The content visualization system can determine visual content that is relevant to the device perspective by identifying source perspectives that overlap with the device perspective. The content visualization system generates visual content for the visualization device based on the identified visual content. The content visualization system can generate composited or non-composited visual content, based on the similarity of the source perspectives to the device perspective.
