摘要： An automated system and method for broadcasting meetings over a computer network. The meeting is filmed using an omni-directional camera system and capable of being presented to a viewer both live and on-demand. The system of the present invention includes an automated camera management system for controlling the camera system and an analysis module determining the location of meeting participants in the meeting environments. The method of the present invention includes using the system of the present invention to broadcast an event to a viewer over a computer network. In particular, the method includes filming the event using an omni-directional camera system. Next, the method determines the location of each event participant in the event environment. Finally, a viewer is provided with a user interface for viewing the broadcast event. This user interface allows a viewer to choose which event participant that the viewer would like to view.

摘要： A system for communicating audio data signals comprises a source computer that performs an action, generates an event message corresponding to the action, converts the event message into an audio data signal, and communicates the audio data signal through its speaker. A source telephone receives a voice signal from a participant and the audio data signal through its microphone and communicates the audio data signal and voice as coherent sound via an audio communications medium. A recipient telephone receives the audio data signal from the coherent sound communicated via the audio communications medium and communicates the audio data signal via its speaker. A recipient computer receives the audio data signal through its microphone, extracts the event message from the audio data signal, and performs an action based on the event message from the audio data signal. The audio communications medium can comprise a telephone communications system or air.

摘要翻译： 用于传送音频数据信号的系统包括执行动作的源计算机，产生与动作相对应的事件消息，将事件消息转换成音频数据信号，并通过其扬声器传送音频数据信号。 源电话通过其麦克风接收来自参与者的语音信号和音频数据信号，并通过音频通信介质将音频数据信号和声音作为相干声传送。 接收者电话从经由音频通信介质传送的相干声音接收音频数据信号，并通过其扬声器传送音频数据信号。 接收者计算机通过其麦克风接收音频数据信号，从音频数据信号中提取事件消息，并根据来自音频数据信号的事件消息执行动作。 音频通信介质可以包括电话通信系统或空气。
