Abstract: A method and computing system for receiving an indication of a first user participating in a videoconference. A determination is made concerning whether bandwidth compression is preferable for the first user of the videoconference. If bandwidth compression is preferable for the first user of the videoconference: an unprocessed video stream associated with the first user is processed to generate a reduced bandwidth video stream, and the reduced bandwidth video stream is provided to a video encoder. Processing the unprocessed video stream includes performing an edge detection procedure on the unprocessed video stream.

Abstract: Embodiments include storing, using one or more computing devices, at least one image associated with each of a plurality of videos. Embodiments may also include transmitting instructions configured to display a plurality of video interfaces, each of the plurality of video interfaces configured to display an initial image of one of the plurality of videos at a first time, the initial image being different at each of the plurality of video interfaces. Embodiments may also include allowing a first transition from a display of the initial image at the first time to a display of a second image at a second time at one of the plurality of video interfaces. Embodiments may further include allowing a second transition from a display of the initial image at the second time to a display of a third image at a third time at a second of the plurality of video interfaces.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for gesture-initiated actions in videoconferences. In one implementation, a processing device receives one or more content streams as part of a communication session. The processing device identifies, within the one or more content streams, a request for feedback. The processing device processes, based on an identification of a request for feedback within the one of the plurality of content streams, the one or more content streams to identify a presence of one or more gestures within at least one of the one or more content streams. The processing device initiates, based on an identification of the presence of one or more gestures within at least one of the one or more content streams, an action with respect to the communication session.

Abstract translation: 系统和方法被公开用于视频会议中的手势发起的动作。 在一个实现中，处理设备作为通信会话的一部分接收一个或多个内容流。 处理装置在一个或多个内容流中识别反馈请求。 处理设备基于对多个内容流中的一个内容流中的反馈请求的标识来处理一个或多个内容流，以识别一个或多个内容流中的至少一个内的一个或多个手势的存在 。 处理装置基于对一个或多个内容流中的至少一个内的一个或多个内容流中的一个或多个手势的存在的识别发起关于通信会话的动作。

Abstract: The present disclosure, in some implementations comprises systems and methods for providing applications during video communication, via online communities or services, for example, social networks. Video communication may be video conferencing or “video chat” sessions among a plurality of users of the online services. Users may engage in a video conference or “video chat,” yet at the same time, use or obtain different applications, designated as either “personal” or “shared” applications. A “personal” application is one that does not involve others and is configured to enhance an individual user's personal experience during a group video communication. A “shared” application is one that involves at least one of multiple users during a group video communication, for example, users may participate in a card or trivia game, watch videos together, collaborate and share documents, or the like.

Abstract translation: 在一些实施方式中，本公开包括用于通过在线社区或服务（例如，社交网络）在视频通信期间提供应用的系统和方法。 视频通信可以是在线服务的多个用户之间的视频会议或“视频聊天”会话。 用户可以参与视频会议或“视频聊天”，但同时使用或获取指定为“个人”或“共享”应用程序的不同应用程序。 “个人”应用程序是不涉及其他应用程序的，并且被配置为在群组视频通信期间增强个人用户的个人体验。 “共享”应用是在组视频通信期间涉及多个用户中的至少一个的应用，例如，用户可以参与卡或琐事游戏，一起观看视频，协作和共享文档等。
