ABSTRACT:
Connection of a communication initiated by a user over a telephone, computer or cable network to a projector in arena or other event facility during an event. A user terminal is connected to the network and operative to initiate the communication from the user. Routing circuitry directs information in the user communication to the arena. A controller receives and processes the information in the user communication, and projectors in the arena project during the event a signal corresponding to information in the user communication. The signal may be an audio signal corresponding to voice information from the user and the projectors may be a set of loudspeakers. The voice information from the user may thus be projected within the arena as it is received. Alternatively, the number of incoming calls may be counted to determine a volume level for a set of loudspeakers which projects random applause through the arena, such that the user can influence the noise level in the arena at a particular time. A visual display or video projector, such as a large video screen, may be used to project a video signal corresponding to information in the user communications.
