Live Event Recording for Significant Sports Bets
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face challenges in efficiently capturing and communicating significant moments during live sporting events while wagering, as current sports betting platforms struggle to track and remember individual wagers, especially in micro-betting scenarios, leading to difficulties in sharing experiences and remembering wager details.
Innovation Solution
A system for recording video related to a play of significance in a live sporting event when a wager is placed on a play by play wagering platform, including a connection to a live sporting event, a database storing wager history, a database storing video, and a wager significance module that determines whether a wager is significant based on the wager history and context of the play, generating a video if the wager is significant.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If users manually capture and record significant moments during live sporting events while wagering, then they can preserve memories of their wagering experience, but it requires significant time and focus away from both the wagering experience and the live sporting event
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-identifies and flags significant moments in the live sporting event before the user needs to capture them. The automated detection system continuously monitors the event and wagering activity, preparing and storing video segments of potentially significant plays in advance, so when a wager is placed, the relevant footage is already ready for immediate retrieval and sharing, eliminating the need for manual real-time capturing
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs automated detection and recording of significant moments without requiring user intervention. The wagering platform itself monitors its own activity, identifies when a significant wager is placed, automatically retrieves the corresponding video footage, and makes it available to the user, allowing the system to serve the memory preservation function independently
2Loss of information
If the system records all plays in micro-betting scenarios, then complete wagering history is captured, but it becomes difficult to communicate which specific portion of the event a person successfully wagered on
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and isolates only the specific video segments corresponding to wagers that were successfully placed by the user. Rather than presenting all recorded plays, the system filters and extracts only those moments where the user's wager was active and significant, separating the relevant information from the overwhelming amount of unrelated event footage
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides feedback to the user by displaying indicia or notifications that clearly indicate which specific play or moment corresponds to their successful wager. This feedback mechanism confirms the connection between the user's betting action and the recorded moment, ensuring accurate identification and communication of the wagered portion
3Loss of information
If the system generates video recordings for every wager, then complete wagering experience is captured, but significant system resources are consumed
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies partial action by selectively generating video recordings only for wagers that meet certain significance criteria rather than recording every single wager. The system uses a wager significance module to evaluate each wager and determines whether it warrants a recorded moment based on factors like wager amount, odds, or user preferences, performing the resource-intensive video generation operation only when necessary
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies different quality levels or recording depths to different wagers based on their significance. High-value or particularly interesting wagers may receive full video recording with enhanced processing, while routine wagers may receive minimal or no recording, allowing the system to allocate resources locally based on the specific needs and importance of each wagering event

AI summary
Methods and systems for determining and providing automatic flags for what is classified as a “significant” bet. When the user makes a significant bet, a software application automatically records the play and may also record the user's reaction. The user does not have to provide an indication to record these clips.
