    摘要: 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.

    摘要: Methods and systems are provided allowing for background identification and gesture recognition in video images. A computer-implemented image processing method includes: receiving, using at least one processing circuit, a plurality of image frames of a video; constructing, using at least one processing circuit, a plurality of statistical models of the plurality of image frames at a plurality of pixel granularity levels; constructing, using at least one processing circuit, a plurality of probabilistic models of an input image frame at a plurality of channel granularity levels based on the plurality of statistical models; merging at least some of the plurality of probabilistic models based on a weighted average to form a single probability image; determining background pixels, based on a probability threshold value, from the single probability image; and determining whether the plurality of image frames, when examined in a particular sequence, conveys a gesture by the object.

    摘要: Implementations generally relate to modifying an appearance of a participant during a video conference. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining at least one frame from a media stream, where the at least one frame includes a first face, and where the first face is an image of a face associated with a user. The method also includes determining a plurality of coordinates within the at least one frame. The method also includes obtaining at least one media content item. The method also includes adding the at least one media content item to the at least one frame based on the plurality of coordinates.

    摘要: Embodiments generally relate to presenter control during a video conference. In one embodiment, a method includes providing a user interface of a video conference between at least a first user and a second user, where the user interface displays a first user video stream in a current presenter position and displays a second user video stream in a secondary presenter position. The method also includes detecting at least one gesture from the second user, where the detecting of the at least one gesture indicates that the second user intends to be a current presenter. The method also includes causing the user interface to display the second user video stream in the current presenter position and to display the first user video stream in the secondary presenter position in response to the detecting.
