FIG. 18 is a flowchart of illustrative steps for updating the scoring opportunities based on changed circumstances in a live sporting event. At step 1805, the control circuitry 604 tracks a playing object in the video of the live sporting event. At step 1810, the control circuitry 604 determines that the current circumstances of the live sporting event are changed, based on a current location of the playing object in comparison to a previous location of the playing object. At step 1815, the control circuitry 604 applies the set of rules to data representing the changed circumstance of the live sporting event to identify updated scoring scenarios in the fantasy sports event. At step 1820, the control circuitry 604 generates for display, with the video of the live sporting event, information about the updated scoring scenarios.
It is contemplated that the steps or descriptions of each of FIGS. 12-18 may be used with any other embodiment of this disclosure. In addition, the steps and descriptions described in relation to FIGS. 12-18 may be done in alternative orders or in parallel to further the purposes of this disclosure. For example, each of these steps may be performed in any order or in parallel or substantially simultaneously to reduce lag or increase the speed of the system or method. Furthermore, it should be noted that any of the devices or equipment discussed in relation to FIGS. 1-7 could be used to perform one or more of the steps in FIGS. 12-18.
