A device may analyze data associated with a conference call. The device may provide at least a portion of the data to a machine learning model. The device may receive an output from the machine learning model in response to the machine learning model processing at least the portion of the data. The output may include a probability score associated with a determination made by the machine learning model with respect to capturing multimedia content associated with the conference call. The device may output a notification associated with capturing the multimedia content based on the output from the machine learning model.

Techniques are described for expediting a generation of a means of communication between two people associated with different organizations. A first person associated with a communication platform may submit a request to the communication platform to generate an invitation to communicate via the communication platform. The first person may provide the invitation to a second person directly or via the communication platform. Responsive to receiving an indication that the second person has accepted the invitation, the communication platform may generate the means of communication between the first person and the second person. The communication platform may update respective user interfaces to include the means of communication. The communication platform may process messages and/or data between the first person and the second person that is input on the respective user interface and sent via the means of communication.

An online meeting system begins the process of connecting a user to an online meeting when the user enters a prejoin dialog for choosing meeting settings, rather than waiting until the user chooses to actually join the meeting after entering settings. Starting the meeting connection process at this time allows a shorter perceived connection time to the meeting and thus reduces user frustration with the meeting system.

A computer-implemented method comprises, obtaining a digital calendar item for an event, determining, that the event has begun, and in response to determining that the event has begun, accessing a location and determining which of the participants are present for the event, determining, during the event, that one participant shared a digital data item with the other participants or as part of the event, and in response to determining that the participant shared the digital data item, at least transiently storing a reference or link to the digital data item, determining that the event has ended, and in response to determining that the event has ended, updating the digital calendar item by adding the reference or link.

Disclosed is a chat initiating method, comprising: determining a first user account that accesses a shared document; obtaining a first identifier of a chat group inserted into the shared document; displaying, according to a state of whether the first user account has joint into the chat group, a group chat control corresponding to the state in the shared document, wherein the group chat control is used for joining the chat group or for displaying an interface of the chat group; and sending, in response to an operation on the group chat control, a corresponding group chat request.

Described herein are a method and security enhancing device for a bi-directional communications device, comprising: an M-digit display; a processor; a security software application (security App) adapted to be stored in memory and executed by the processor; an N-digit random number generator adapted to periodically generate a new N-digit random number and transmit the same to the processor and the security App, and wherein the processor is further adapted to transmit the N-digit random number to the display to display the N-digit random number; and a wireless communications transceiver and antenna (wireless communications device) adapted to transmit and receive wireless communications to and from, respectively, one or more personal electronic devices that are adapted to wireless communicate using identical communications protocols as the wireless communications transceiver, and wherein the security App is adapted to receive and store the N-bit digit random number that changes periodically, and wherein the security App is adapted to generate an offer to join the meeting message that is transmitted by the wireless communications transceiver to the one or more personal electronic devices, and wherein the security App is adapted to receive a request to join the meeting message from a first personal electronic device, wherein the request to join the meeting message comprises a field within which a currently displayed N-digit random number can be entered into (request to join N-digit random number), and wherein the security App is further adapted to compare the received request to join N-digit random number to the stored N-digit random number, and if they match, then the security App provides a communication to the processor to allow bi-directional communications with the personal electronic device that transmitted the received N-digit random number.

In order to facilitate electronic meeting scheduling and coordination, systems and methods are disclosed including receiving, by a processor, a plurality of electronic meeting requests to schedule a meeting. The processor determines, for each electronic meeting request, meeting room needs. A meeting scheduling machine learning model is utilized to predict parameters of meeting room objects representing the candidate meeting rooms based at least in part on the meeting room needs, schedule information associated with a respective electronic meeting request and location information associated with the respective electronic meeting request. The processor causes an indication of the candidate meeting rooms to display in response to the electronic meeting request on a screen of computing devices associated with the respective attendees based at least in part on the predicted parameters. The processor receives a selection of the respective candidate meeting rooms from the respective attendees, and dynamically secures each candidate meeting room.

A conference system with low standby power consumption includes a transmitter, an image data source, a receiver, and a display device. The transmitter includes a battery for providing power, at least one link port for accessing data, and a processor coupled to the battery and the at least one link port. The image data source is used for transmitting the image data to the transmitter. The receiver is linked to the transmitter for receiving the image data. The display device is linked to the receiver for displaying the image data. When the transmitter and the image data source are electrically coupled, the processor ceases to use the battery of the transmitter and controls the image data source for providing power to the transmitter. When the transmitter and the image data source are separated, the processor uses the battery of the transmitter for driving firmware of the transmitter.

Systems and methods for multi-attendee video conferencing are described. A system can convert from huddle video conference mode to spatial video conference mode. In particular, by assigning user roles, specific users can have greater control of the video conference as compared to other users. For instance, moderators may have a greater level of control of the video conferencing system. Thus, in example implementations of the present disclosure, specific users can affect transition between two or more video conferencing modes, such as between a huddle video conference mode and a spatial video conference mode.
