A system and method for importing and visualizing numerical data relating to sporting events, wherein numerical data related to sporting events may be imported from any number of internet-based statistics compilers and rendered as a graphical representations allowing for convenient analysis of the data by the user. The graphical representations are primarily pie charts, wherein each slice of the pie chart corresponds to, for example, a position group, a specific player, or a type of points-scoring play. Users may make selections from one or more dropdown menus to generate pie charts and these selections may produce any number of comparisons, visualizations, or analyses. For example, a user may compare various numerical and statistical data for a single professional sports team, and further, to sort and compare those data by position group, by player, by season, or by game. Further, a user may make selections to directly compare the data relating to a first professional athlete to the data relating to a second professional athlete. Further still, a user may make selections to compare a professional sports team's performance across the duration of a previously played season against the performance of all other teams in the professional league across the duration of the previously played season, and further, to examine the performance of a particular player on the professional sports team across the duration of a previously played season. These analyses, among others, are graphically represented as pie charts and may be augmented by various additional functionalities, for example, mouse-over functionalities, clickable features, pop-ups, animations, three-dimensional renderings, video replays, among other functionalities. These analyses are generated from real-world professional sports data but may be compiled for purposes related to various online fantasy sports leagues.

Described is a system and method for ephemeral betting within a panoramic video environment. A panoramic video environment is defined as a virtual experience, viewed on an information handling device (e.g., personal computers, mobile devices, virtual reality headsets, smart televisions, etc.) where the user views a panorama from a first person perspective relative to the camera capturing the video. The “view” may be a two-dimensional “portal” into the panoramic environment, or a stereoscopic view. The user will typically have directional control in the view portal, including the ability to pan, tilt, and zoom from the perspective of the camera. The described system and method creates wagering opportunities by combining the experience of viewing an event, simultaneously with other spectators, with real-time analytics and statistics derived from an object tracking system, thereby providing ephemeral wagering opportunities.
