Companion camera and microphone
A system and method are provided for a wireless device for use with a first video conference device, a second video conference device, WAN and an item. The video conference devices are configured to establish a video conference over a secure communication channel over the WAN. The first video conference device is additionally configured to transmit a video conference invitation in response to a video conference request from the wireless device, the video conference invitation including credentials to establish a communication channel with the first video conference device. The second video conference device is additionally configured to transmit a magnification control signal. The wireless device is configured to: image the item in a first magnification; transmit first image data of the item based on the first magnification; change the magnification; image the item in a second magnification; and transmit second image data of the item based on the second magnification.
MOBILE INFORMATION TERMINAL
When a first user makes a video call with a second user of the other side by using the video call function, a first state is set as a state in which the enclosure is flatly placed on a first surface of an object, and in which a face of the first user is included within a range of an angle of view AV1 of the front camera C1. In the first state, the mobile information terminal 1 detects a first region including the face of the first user from a wide angle image that is captured by the front camera C1, trims a first image corresponding to the first region, creates a transmission image to be transmitted to a terminal of the other side on the basis of the first image, and transmits the transmission image to the terminal of the other side.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING HEALTHCARE SERVICES REMOTELY OR VIRTUALLY WITH OR USING AN ELECTRONIC HEALTHCARE RECORD AND/OR A COMMUNICATION NETWORK
An apparatus, including a computer programmed for facilitating a tele-health visit including a video call and a first electronic healthcare record for an individual. The computer includes a database which stores the first electronic healthcare record. The apparatus facilitates a video call between a user device and a provider device. The provider device records a photograph or video clip of the individual, generates an alert message, and transmits the alert message to the user device. The provider device processes information for updating the first electronic healthcare record. The computer stores information for updating, and stores an update to, the first electronic healthcare record. The computer processes information for updating, and updates, a second electronic healthcare record for the individual or the computer processes information for updating, and updates, an electronic medical record, electronic dental record, electronic pharmacy record, or personal health record, for the individual.
Sentiment analysis of content using expression recognition
A computerized method for providing a sentiment score by evaluating expressions of participants during a video meeting is provided herein. The computerized method comprising: a Sentiment Analysis (SA) module. The SA module is: (i) retrieving one or more recordings of a video meeting from the database of video meeting recordings of each participant in the video meeting and associating the one or more recordings with a participant; (ii) dividing each retrieved recording into segments; (iii) processing the segments in a Facial Expression Recognition (FER) system to associate each segment with a timestamped sequence of expressions for each participant in the video meeting; and (iv) processing each segment in an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) having a dense layer, by applying a prebuilt and pretrained deep learning model, to yield a sentiment score for each statement for each participant.
System enabling digital signature of a document in an online meeting
The system comprises a first data processing system, a second data processing system, and a server. The system further includes four screens. The first and third screen comprises a video stream and an audio stream. The second and fourth screen comprises a video stream displaying visual contents of a first document that is to be digitally signed by the first and second user. The first and second data processing systems are configured to receive a first and second unique signature from the first and second user, respectively, and add it to the first document. The server is configured to coordinate communication between the first and second data processing systems, record the visual contents of the first screen, the second screen, the third screen and the fourth screen, and store the recording.
Television receiver with a TV phone function
A videophone system includes a processor which selectively sets a television (TV) broadcast program viewing function mode and videophone function mode in response to manual operation of a remote control, a decoder which performs, in the TV program view mode, a TV program-use decode function for decoding a broadcast program signal received from a TV tuner to thereby display it on a display screen while producing audio sounds by loudspeakers and which performs, in the videophone function mode a videophone-use decode function for decoding a videophone signal received from a distant party to thereby display on the screen an image of the distant party using the screen and speakers, and an encoder which performs a videophone-use encode function for encoding a video signal from a camera and a voice signal from a microphone to generate a videophone signal, which is sent to the distant party via a network.
VIDEO-BASED PHYSIOLOGICAL SENSING INTEGRATED INTO VIRTUAL CONFERENCES
Systems and methods for providing a user characteristic to a service provider for a virtual conference with a user are provided. In particular, a computing device may collect raw media data associated with the user during the virtual conference between the user and the service provider. During the virtual conference, the computing device may perform a first processing of the raw media data to extract intermediate user data, wherein the intermediate user data comprises one or more of a physiological signal and a behavioral signal associated the user. The computing device may further transform the raw media data into transformed media data and transmit the transformed media data with the intermediate user data to a server for second processing of the intermediate user data.
REAL-TIME VISUALIZATION MODULE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING THE SAME
A real-time visualization module comprising a database and a set of software components programmed to enable the real-time visualization module to operate concurrently with a video conferencing module, provide an application programming interface to a user that enables the user to upload and organize content to the database, deliver content from the database to users in real-time, wherein said content is displayed by the video conferencing module, and configure a server to display through the video conferencing module the manipulations made to the content in real-time. By providing a real-time visualization module, a presentation host may easily share content uploaded to said database for active content sharing without sharing their desktop, thus ensuring only pertinent content is shared with participants. Additionally, content may be shared with participants in a way that allows them to actively influence or manipulate the content presented to other participants or independently from other participants.
CONTACTLESS REAL-TIME STREAMING OF PATIENT VITAL INFORMATION
A method is described which provides patient vital sign measurements to a medical professional during a telemedicine visit. The method includes establishing, by a patient communication device, a video call with a medical professional communication device, processing at least one of a patient video feed from a camera of the patient communication device or an embedded sensor of the patient communication device, determining one or more patient vital sign measurements based on at least one of the processed patient video feed or signal; and transmitting, the one or more patient vital sign measurements and the patient video feed to the medical professional communication device, receipt of the one or more vital sign measurements causing the medical professional communication device to display the one or more vital sign measurements concurrently with the patient video feed.
