Abstract:
Methods, media and devices for generating an optimized image snapshot from a captured sequence of persons participating in a meeting are provided. In some embodiments, methods media and devices for utilizing a captured image as a representative image of a person as a replacement of a video stream; as a representation of a person in offline archiving systems; or as a representation of a person in a system participant roster.
Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein provide methods, systems, and computer readable storage media for presenting a meeting between remote participants. In a particular embodiment, a method provides, during a conference session, compiling view information used to determine a first view seen by the first participant. The method further provides receiving conference video comprising at least video captured of a second participant remote to the physical location of the first participant. Also, the method provides presenting the video captured of the second participant such that the second participant appears at a first position of a meeting location in the first view to the first participant.
Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein provide methods, systems, and computer readable storage media for facilitating enhanced visual communication between remote participants. In a particular embodiment, a method provides, during a conference session, receiving first video captured of a first participant remote to a physical meeting location. The method further provides determining a first position for the first participant in the physical meeting location and determining a view of an Augmented Reality (AR) head mounted display worn by a second participant at the physical meeting location. From the first video, the method provides generating AR video that makes the first participant appear to the second participant at the first position when viewed through the AR head mounted display. The method also includes transferring the AR video to the AR head mounted display for presentation to the second participant.
Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems and methods for a scalable videoconference system. In a particular embodiment, a method provides receiving a video stream from a party on a videoconference over a communication network. The method further provides transferring the video stream to a processing device of a plurality of processing devices located on one of a plurality of processing boards operatively coupled to each of one or more server processors. The method further provides processing the video stream to generate a processed video stream and transferring the processed video stream for distribution to other parties on the videoconference.

Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein provide methods, systems, and computer readable storage media for facilitating controlling a meeting between remote Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) participants. In a particular embodiment, a method provides, during a conference session wherein a plurality of head mounted displays (HMDs) are each worn by one of a plurality of participants, compiling first orientation information and first view information from a first HMD of the plurality of HMDs. The orientation information describes current orientation of the first HMD. Based on the first orientation information and the first view information, the method provides determining a first change to how video is presented the first HMD. Also, the method provides directing the first HMD to implement the first change.
