ABSTRACT:
A spectator sport system and method that displays different views of a sporting event and, in particular, uses the spectator's GPS position to assist in displaying a view from the spectator's position. The spectator, using a personal device, can zoom, pan, tilt and change the view, as well as change the view to another position, such as a finish line, goal, or a participant position. Vital information on the sporting event or a participant can be appended to the view. In some forms, augmented reality can be used, such as a finish line or goal, to enhance the experience. Additional service requests can be made from the personal device.
