Conference System and Transmitter with Low Standby Power Consumption and no Booting Delay Time

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.

20230038109 · 2023-02-09 ·

Embodiments include an audio analyzer to analyze audio data received from a user computing system operating as a participant in a conference managed by a conferencing application and to detect one or audio pause conditions; a video analyzer to analyze video data received from the user computing system and to detect one or video pause conditions; and a conferencing manager to automatically pause distribution of the audio data to other participants of the conference when the one or more audio pause conditions are detected and automatically pause distribution of the video data to the other participants when the one or more video pause conditions are detected.

Systems and methods for initiating actions based on multi-user call detection
11558210 · 2023-01-17 · ·

A group-based communication platform is configured to detect one or more recurring calls performed via a calling system, such as an external calling platform, and to perform one or more follow-up actions upon detecting a recurring call. The group-based communication platform receives call data for one or more calls, such as previously completed calls or future scheduled calls. The group-based communication platform is further configured to identify user profiles associated with one or more calls, to thereby identify user profiles associated with one or more recurring calls. Thus, the one or more follow-up actions executed by the group-based communication platform for a recurring call is associated with one or more user profiles that are correlated with a recurring call.

Computer-implemented methods, systems comprising computer-readable media, and electronic devices for team-sourced anomaly vetting via automatically-delegated role definition

A computer-implemented method for team-sourced anomaly vetting via automatically-delegated role definition. The method may include automatically determining that an event of the computing system corresponding to activity of an end user is anomalous. Based on the anomalous event, a permission store of the computing system may automatically be edited to include an access restriction on the end user, and a notification may be automatically generated and transmitted to one or both of the end user and another end user. The notification may provide access to an executable statement including code configured to be executed to remove the access restriction. A call to the executable statement by the other end user may be automatically received. Further, the permission store may be automatically edited to remove the access restriction on the end user.

VIRTUAL SOUND LOCALIZATION FOR VIDEO TELECONFERENCING
20230045569 · 2023-02-09 ·

This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for videoconferencing. The present implementations more specifically relate to audio signal processing techniques that can be used to identify speakers in a videoconference. In some aspects, an audio signal processor may map each speaker in a videoconference to a respective spatial direction and transform the audio signals received from each speaker using one or more transfer functions associated with the spatial direction to which the speaker is mapped. The audio signal processor may further transmit the transformed audio signals to an audio output device that emits sounds waves having a directionality associated with the transformation. For example, the audio signal processor may apply one or more head-related transfer functions to the audio signals received from a particular speaker so that the sound waves emitted by the audio output device are perceived as originating from the spatial direction to which the speaker is mapped.

Verifying media stream quality for multiparty video conferences

Embodiments are directed to verifying media stream quality for multiparty video conferences. A verification video may be generated based on verification goals for a video provided by a video service. A marker may be embedded in the verification video. A video conference may be established using video stations such that the video conference may be provided by a video service. The verification video may be streamed to a video input of each video station. The video may be streamed to a video output buffer of each video station such that the video provides a view of the video conference and such that the marker that corresponds to each video station may be included in the video. Video information may be captured from the video output buffer of the video stations. The video service may be classified based on the video information from each video station.

Disclosed herein is a web-based videoconference system that allows for video avatars to navigate within a virtual environment. Various methods for efficient modeling, rendering, and shading are disclosed herein.

Conference device, method of controlling conference device, and computer storage medium

The present disclosure provides a conference device, a method of controlling the conference device, and a computer storage medium. The conference device includes a display, an image sensor, a holographic projector, and a controller configured to identify, by using an image data from the image sensor, a modification action performed at a target location for a holographic image projected by the holographic projector, modify holographic projection data based on the modification action, and convert modified holographic projection data into modified two-dimensional imaging data.

Methods, systems, and devices of providing portions of recorded game content in response to a trigger

Embodiments include a system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting a current trigger during a video game and determining a group of players involved in the current trigger. Further embodiments include recording a trigger clip of game content for each player in the group of players resulting in a group of trigger clips. Each trigger clip of the group of trigger clips is a portion of game content that includes the current trigger from a perspective of each player of the group of players. Additional embodiments include providing the group of trigger clips to a group of gaming devices over a communication network. Each gaming device of the group of gaming devices is associated with one player of the group of players. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
