Abstract

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to receive a first notification that a first cast has been made. The computer-executable instructions may further include instructions, which cause the computer to receive data regarding a video input. The computer-executable instructions may further include instructions, which cause the computer to receive a second notification that a second cast has been made. The computer-executable instructions may further include instructions, which cause the computer to delete a portion of the data regarding the video input that is associated with the first cast in response to receiving the second notification.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
receive, from a wearable device, a first cast notification that a first cast has been made, wherein the wearable device includes one or more motion sensors that are not connected to a fishing line, wherein the wearable device determines that the first cast has been made based on first motion data from the one or more sensors, and wherein the first motion data corresponds to a user of the wearable device initiating the first cast;
receive video data corresponding to fishing activity;
delete, in an instance in which a second cast notification that a second cast has been made is received from the wearable device, at least a portion of the video data associated with the first cast, wherein the wearable device determines that the second cast has been made based on second motion data from the one or more sensors, and wherein the second motion data corresponds to the user of the wearable device initiating the second cast; and
store, in an instance in which a notification that a catch or bite has occurred is received from the wearable device, at least the portion of the video data associated with the first cast in memory, wherein the wearable device determines that the catch or bite has occurred based on third motion data from the one or more sensors, and wherein the third motion data corresponds to an instance in which the user of the wearable device has a catch or a bite.

2. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the at least a portion of the data is deleted without deleting video data associated with the second cast.

3. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the computer to:
receive a first time stamp corresponding to the first cast;
receive a second time stamp corresponding to the second cast; and
determine the portion of the video data to delete to be between the first time stamp and the second time stamp.

4. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 3 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the computer to determine the ending of the portion of the video data to delete to be a staggered point in time prior to the second time stamp so as to not inadvertently delete any portion of the second cast.

5. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the computer to associate the portion of the video data to be stored with at least one of the first cast or the catch or bite in the memory.

6. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the video data is recorded by a video camera located remotely from the wearable device.

7. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first cast notification, the second cast notification, and the notification that the catch or bite has occurred are each received over a wireless connection.

8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the computer to:
receive, from the wearable device, a record of a type of fishing cast made by the user for the first cast, wherein the wearable device determines the type of fishing cast based on the first motion data, wherein the type of fishing cast includes at least one of a basic fishing cast, a roll fishing cast, or a side fishing cast; and
store the record of the type of fishing cast in association with the portion of the video data associated with the first cast.

9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the video data corresponding to the fishing activity shows a user of the wearable device during the fishing activity.

10. A marine electronics device comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory having stored thereon a plurality of executable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
receive, from a wearable device, a first cast notification that a first cast has been made, wherein the wearable device includes one or more motion sensors that are not connected to a fishing line, wherein the wearable device determines that the first cast has been made based on first motion data from the one or more sensors, and wherein the first motion data corresponds to a user of the wearable device initiating the first cast;
receive video data corresponding to fishing activity;
delete, in an instance in which a second cast notification that a second cast has been made is received from the wearable device, at least a portion of the video data associated with the first cast, wherein the wearable device determines that the second cast has been made based on second motion data from the one or more sensors, and wherein the second motion data corresponds to the user of the wearable device initiating the second cast; and
store, in an instance in which a notification that a catch or bite has occurred is received from the wearable device, at least the portion of the video data associated with the first cast in the memory, wherein the wearable device determines that the catch or bite has occurred based on third motion data from the one or more sensors, and wherein the third motion data corresponds to an instance in which the user of the wearable device has a catch or a bite.

11. The marine electronics device of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of executable instructions are further configured to cause the one or more processors to:
receive a first time stamp corresponding to the first cast;
receive a second time stamp corresponding to the second cast; and
determine the portion of the video data to delete to be between the first time stamp and the second time stamp.

12. The marine electronics device of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of executable instructions are further configured to cause the one or more processors to associate the portion of the video data to be stored with at least one of the first cast or the catch or bite in the memory.

13. The marine electronics device of claim 10 , wherein the video data is recorded by a video camera located remotely from the wearable device.

14. The marine electronics device of claim 10 , wherein the first cast notification, the second cast notification, and the notification that the catch or bite has occurred are each received over a wireless connection.

15. The marine electronics device of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of executable instructions are further configured to cause the one or more processors to:
receive, via the wearable device, a record of a type of fishing cast made by the user for the first cast, wherein the wearable device determines the type of fishing cast based on the first motion data, wherein the type of fishing cast includes at least one of a basic fishing cast, a roll fishing cast, or a side fishing cast; and
store the record of the type of fishing cast in association with the portion of the video data associated with the first cast.

16. The marine electronics device of claim 10 , wherein the video data corresponding to the fishing activity shows a user of the wearable device during the fishing activity.

17. A system comprising:
a wearable device comprising:
one or more motion sensors, wherein the one or more motion sensors are not connected to a fishing line; and
a computer system having a wearable device processor and memory having stored thereon a plura
