Methods and systems for receiving and displaying venue-based data at hand held devices are disclosed herein. Data transmitted from one or more venue-based data sources may be received by at least one hand held device present within a venue, such as a sports stadium or concert arena. Such data can be processed for display on a display screen associated with the hand held device. The processed data may be then displayed on the display screen, thereby enabling a user of the hand held device to view venue-based data through the hand held device. Such venue-based data viewable through the hand held device within the venue may include real-time and instant replay video images and clips, advertising and promotional information, scheduling, statistical, historical and other informational data, or a combination thereof.

Spatio-temporal light field cameras that can be used to capture the light field within its spatio temporally extended angular extent. Such cameras can be used to record 3D images, 2D images that can be computationally focused, or wide angle panoramic 2D images with relatively high spatial and directional resolutions. The light field cameras can be also be used as 2D/3D switchable cameras with extended angular extent. The spatio-temporal aspects of the novel light field cameras allow them to capture and digitally record the intensity and color from multiple directional views within a wide angle. The inherent volumetric compactness of the light field cameras make it possible to embed in small mobile devices to capture either 3D images or computationally focusable 2D images. The inherent versatility of these light field cameras makes them suitable for multiple perspective light field capture for 3D movies and video recording applications.

The claimed subject matter relates to a computer-implemented architecture that can generate a map. The map can be a hybrid between an orthographic projection map and street-side images, thus including useful aspects from both types of representations. For example, an orthographic projection map is very effective at presenting global relationships among the features of the map, but not effective at presenting local detail. In contrast, street-side images show excellent detail, but do not convey the global information of an orthographic projection map. The hybrid map can thus provide a richer set of information than conventional maps, and can also display objects/features of the hybrid map in multiple perspectives simultaneously on a single representation that is printable.

The backlight system of the invention creates illumination behind a liquid crystal or other transparent display. In one mode of operation it produces a series of precise, thin slanted lines with dark space in between which are used to make multiple perspective views, displayed simultaneously on the LCD, visible from a series of horizontally spaced viewing zones spaced in front of the display. In another mode of operation, it produces even diffuse illumination similar to that generated by conventional backlights, allowing the LCD to display conventional 2D images.

An event as defined by a place and a time may be captured by multiple devices or individuals. Storing time information in association with the content item allows users to identify content associated with that event or any event. Time data may be provided in varying time bases depending on the network from which time information is determined. Accordingly, all content capturing the same event may be synchronized and aligned appropriately by adjusting the various timing information to a common time base. The synchronization and alignment is facilitated by capturing content using very fine time bases that provides accurate time stamping of content. In one or more arrangements, timing information may be adjusted using a time almanac that uses sample timing data. The content may further be assembled into a content item that provides multiple perspectives of the same event.

The invention discloses a deforming statistical map based multi-view spatio-temporal data visualization method and application. Spatio-temporal data having geography and time attributes is visualized by adopting a method of multi-view and multi-tag mixed layout formed by combining a traditional map, a statistical map, time axis and a pie chart, a bar graph, a bubble chart and a Nightingale rose diagram in a statistical chart, and the dissymmetry problem of data distribution and space utilization of a traditional map visualization method and the problem that the attributes of multi-dimensional data display are not comprehensively displayed are avoided. A user can be helped to understand all the aspects of data from multiple perspectives, meanwhile a classic visualized statistic analysis chart, the map time axis and the like are combined, so that data display is specific and vivid. The deforming statistical map based multi-view spatio-temporal data visualization method can be applied to the fields of data visualization of microblogs, WeChat, demographic statistics, infectious disease distribution, elector distribution and the like, and visualization and visual analysis conducted on the data having the time relation of spatial distribution are achieved.
