A method including establishing a multi-player gaming session of a gaming application that generates an interactive gaming world, the live event being a real-world venue where players playing the gaming application are present. A 3D live view of the venue is generated based on captured video streams, and generated for a physical POV anchored to a physical location in the venue. The 3D live view is streamed to an HMD of a remote user located outside the venue, and presents an augmented reality view of the live event. A request is received from the remote user to jump into the gaming session as a spectator of the interactive gaming world from a virtual POV defined by a virtual location in the gaming world. The spectator view is delivered to the HMD of the remote user for display, the spectator view presenting a virtual reality view of the interactive gaming world.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, embodiments include providing video streams of video content to displays, each video stream includes a portion of the video content, determining that a viewer reaction to a first portion of the video content in a first video stream satisfies a viewer reaction threshold when the first video stream is presented on a first display, and determining that a sub-portion of the first portion of the video content caused the viewer reaction to satisfy the viewer reaction threshold in response to analyzing the first portion of the video content. Further embodiments include generating a second video stream of the video content, the second video stream comprises the sub-portion without a remainder of the first portion, and providing the second video stream to a second display. Other embodiments are disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to a device and method for providing content based on augmented reality, wherein more specifically, the device for providing content may include a content generating unit that generates content provided to a user according to a user's selection, a space forming unit that defines a content execution space in which the content are performed based on the content, a content providing unit that provides the content to the user according to an input of the previously generated content in the content execution space of the user, and a story development unit that develops a story of the content in the content execution space through an interactive operation between the user and the content.

A system in accordance with present embodiments includes a plurality of vehicles having vehicle interface circuitry and configured to accommodate one or more riders. In certain embodiments, a vehicle of the plurality of vehicles is configured to receive respective inputs from the one or more riders via the vehicle interface circuitry, and wherein the respective inputs are related to one or more game features of a game environment; and a game controller configured to receive information from the vehicle interface circuitry related to the respective inputs; and provide instructions to modify the game environment based on at least one of the respective inputs.

The invention generally relates to an immersive and reactive game play system and process having a dynamic, interactive range surface and/or an end-of-range display that provide for a partially simulated environment with a shared field of play for the activity that allows for an immersive but shared view of each user and the other users, and further expands participation by combining the advantages of simulated display with a physical field of play. The immersive and reactive game play system and process is configured to simultaneously display flight paths of multiple balls struck from a multi-level, multi-bay golf and entertainment facility. The interactive range surface provides a visual, auditory and/or physical effect to a golf ball traveling over or landing on the range surface, and the end-of-range display is configured to display the continued flight path of the golf ball.

A technique for scaling a multiplayer co-op and competitive computer gaming to dozens or even scores of people playing simultaneously, for example in a movie theater. The gameplay occurs on the giant screen at the front of the theater. Each person has a controller to control one character or avatar in a gameplay space that is projected on the screen. In a theater with one hundred people in the seats, for example, one hundred respective avatars can appear on the screen, each controlled by a respective different player.
