Abstract

A first and second video segment may be obtained. A second video segment may be obtained. A first and second set of contextual information associated with the first and second video segments may be obtained. The first set of contextual information defining a first set of performance information characterizing performance of a first activity associated with the first video segment and the second set of contextual information defining a second set of performance information characterizing performance of a second activity associated with the second video segment. The first set of performance information and the second set of performance information may be compared. Relative performance of the first activity relative to the second activity may be determined based upon the comparison. Visual information associated with the first video segment may be generated. The visual information may be presented during presentation of the first video segment.

Claims (43)

1. A system for presenting visual information during presentation of a video segment, the system comprising:

one or more physical computer processors configured by computer readable instructions to:

obtain a first video segment;

obtain a second video segment;

obtain a first set of contextual information associated with the first video segment, the first set of contextual information defining a first set of performance information characterizing performance of a first activity associated with the first video segment;

obtain a second set of contextual information associated with the second video segment, the second set of contextual information defining a second set of performance information characterizing performance of a second activity associated with the second video segment;

compare the first set of performance information and the second set of performance information;

determine relative performance of the first activity relative to the second activity based upon the comparison;

generate visual information associated with the first video segment, the visual information including the relative performance; and

present the visual information during presentation of the first video segment.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first set of contextual information and/or the second set of contextual information may be generated from one or more of image analysis of the first video segment, image analysis of the second video segment, a wearable sensor, one or more sensors carried by an image capturing device that captured the first video segment and/or the second video segment, and/or movement of the image capturing device that captured the first video segment and/or the second video segment.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first set of contextual information and/or the second set of contextual information includes one or both of temporal attributes and/or spatial attributes.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the one or more temporal attributes and/or spatial attributes include one or more of a geolocation attribute, a time attribute, a date attribute, and/or a content attribute.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the content attribute includes one or more of an action depicted within the visual information, one or more objects depicted within the visual information, and/or a landscape depicted within the visual information.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual information includes text describing the comparison between the first set of contextual information and the second set of contextual information.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual information includes an image from the second video segment.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual information is presented side-by-side within a display during presentation of the first video segment.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual information is presented as an overlay within a display during presentation of the first video segment.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more physical computer processors are configured by computer readable instructions to:

pause presentation of the first video segment;

present the visual information while presentation of the first video segment is paused; and

upon completion of the presentation of the visual information, resume presentation of the first video segment.

11. A method for presenting visual information during presentation of a video segment, the method comprising:

obtaining a first video segment;

obtaining a second video segment;

obtaining a first set of contextual information associated with the first video segment, the first set of contextual information defining a first set of performance information characterizing performance of a first activity associated with the first video segment;

obtaining a second set of contextual information associated with the second video segment, the second set of contextual information defining a second set of performance information characterizing performance of a second activity associated with the second video segment;

comparing the first set of performance information and the second set of performance information;

determining relative performance of the first activity relative to the second activity based upon the comparison;

generating visual information associated with the first video segment, the visual information including the relative performance; and

presenting the visual information during presentation of the first video segment.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first set of contextual information and/or the second set of contextual information may be generated from one or more of image analysis of the first video segment, image analysis of the second video segment, a wearable sensor, one or more sensors carried by an image capturing device that captured the first video segment and/or the second video segment, and/or movement of the image capturing device that captured the first video segment and/or the second video segment.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first set of contextual information and/or the second set of contextual information includes one or both of temporal attributes and/or spatial attributes.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the one or more temporal attributes and/or spatial attributes include one or more of a geolocation attribute, a time attribute, a date attribute, and/or a content attribute.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the content attribute includes one or more of an action depicted within the visual information, one or more objects depicted within the visual information, and/or a landscape depicted within the visual information.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the visual information includes text describing the comparison between the first set of contextual information and the second set of contextual information.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the visual information includes an image from the second video segment.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein the visual information is presented side-by-side within a display during presentation of the first video segment.

19. The method of claim 11 , wherein the visual information is presented as an overlay within a display during presentation of the first video segment.

20. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

pausing presentation of the first video segment;

presenting the visual information while presentation of the first video segment is paused; and

upon completion of the presentation of the visual information, resuming presentation of the first video segment.
