A method of and system of providing a realistic audiovisual representation at a remote location of a game occurring at a base location in which the base location and remote location are linked by a communications channel, including the steps of preparing a library of prerecorded video clips depicting events typically encountered in conducting a game, storing the library of the remote location, transmitting information as to the progress of a game from the base location to the remote location over the communication channel at the base location using the information to select appropriate video clips from the library that replicate the game, and presenting the selected video clips at the remote location to provide a realistic audiovisual representation.

System and method for providing a realistic audiovisual representation of a game among widely separated participants

A high-resolution apparatus and method provide direct digital measurement of electrical properties such as resistance, capacitance or inductance. An excitation signal derived from a high-frequency source is applied to a network containing an unknown device to produce a network output signal with an amplitude that corresponds to the electrical property to be measured. Amplitude variations in the network output signal are converted to corresponding phase variations in a third signal by adding the network output signal to a reference signal that is phase shifted by 90-degrees with respect to the excitation. The third signal is then applied to a phaselocked loop that employs the above-mentioned high-frequency source in combination with a pulse delete circuit to produce an output that multiplies phase information contained in the third signal by orders of magnitude. Conventional methods can then be used to measure the resulting greatly magnified phase changes corresponding to minute changes in the electrical properties of the device under test.
