Claim:
1. A method to adaptively transmit sensor data, the method comprising: receiving, at a first virtual instrument playing system, first sensor data of a first user; detecting, at the first virtual instrument playing system, a first virtual instrument playing event based, at least in part, on the first sensor data; determining, at the first virtual instrument playing system, delay information that is indicative of a network delay between the first virtual instrument playing system and a second virtual instrument playing system coupled to the first virtual instrument playing system over a network; based, at least in part, on the determined delay information, predicting, prior to occurrence of a first event, at the first virtual instrument playing system, a timing of the first event that corresponds to the first virtual instrument playing event; generating, at the first virtual instrument playing system, one or more data packets, the one or more data packets being indicative of the first virtual instrument playing event and the first event timing; and transmitting, at the first virtual instrument playing system, the one or more data packets to the second virtual instrument playing system over the network.
