Abstract: A display module is described that has two or more front-facing camera modules at opposing edges of a computing device. Using images acquired by both camera modules, when a user is looking directly at the display, it is possible to generate an image of the user as though he/she was looking directly toward the lens of a camera module.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, method, and user interface to facilitate augmented reality based communication between multiple users over a network. Session configuration data including configuration parameters of a virtual interaction session with a first user is received from a first device. The configuration parameters include an identifier of a second user that is permitted to join the virtual interaction session and a micro-chat duration that defines a time limit for a real-time communication link between the first and second user during the virtual interaction session. The real-time communication link between the first and second user by causing display, by the second device, of a live camera feed generated at the first device. Upon expiration of the micro-chat duration, the real-time communication link between the first and second user is terminated.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication of an apparatus, e.g., a UE. In one aspect, the apparatus determines (820) whether a connection of a video call is interrupted, the video call including a plurality of decoded frames. The apparatus also determines (830), if the connection of the video call is interrupted, whether one or more decoded frames of the plurality of decoded frames are suitable for artificial frame generation. The apparatus also generates (850) one or more artificial frames based on the one or more decoded frames and an audio feed from a transmitting device. Additionally, the apparatus determines (860) whether the one or more artificial frames are suitable for a facial model call. The apparatus also establishes (880) a facial model call based on a combination (870) of the one or more artificial frames and the audio feed from the transmitting device.

Abstract: A system illuminates a face of a video conference participant (user). Lighting mechanisms each include lighting elements that emanate light from the left and right of the face of the user, below the face of the user and/or above the user, each emanating light from in front of, and in a direction of, the face of the user. A brightness of the light emanating from the lighting elements may be adjustable using a control mechanism, which may be handheld with tactile or software controls. The positions of the lighting mechanisms may be moved side to side, backward and forward, and up and down relative to the user's face, and may be configured to enable the angles of the lighting mechanisms relative to the face of the user to be adjusted to further improve the properties of the light illuminating the user's face to the desired taste of the user.

Abstract: The disclosed techniques improve user engagement and promote efficient use of computing resources by providing dynamically controlled aspect ratios for communication session renderings based on a physical orientation of a device. In some configurations, a system can select a first aspect ratio for individual video streams of a communication session when a device is in a first orientation, e.g., a portrait orientation. In addition, the system can select a second aspect ratio for the individual video streams when the device is in a second orientation, e.g., a landscape orientation. In some configurations, the first aspect ratio can be greater than the second aspect ratio, or the aspect ratios can be selected based on a target aspect ratio, which can be adjusted over time. By dynamically selecting an aspect ratio for individual stream renderings, screen space of a device can be optimized while the device is held in various physical orientations.
