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.

A transmission terminal transmits video data and display data of a screen shared with another transmission terminal to the other transmission terminal via a predetermined relay apparatus. The transmission terminal includes a storage unit that stores relay apparatus information of the relay apparatus to which the transmission terminal transmits the video data; a receive unit that receives the display data from an external input apparatus connected to the transmission terminal; and a transmitting unit that transmits the display data received by the receive unit to the relay apparatus indicated by the relay apparatus information stored in the storage unit.

Systems and methods for providing ephemeral streaming spaces may include (1) providing a user with a digital display of video cards, in which each video card within the digital display corresponds to a contact, of the user, designated as currently available for video conferencing, (2) receiving user input selecting a video card from the digital display, and (3) in response to receiving the user input, initiating a video conference between the user and a contact corresponding to the selected video card. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

An apparatus for video communication connected to a local processing device executing a video conferencing software for communicating with a remote location, the apparatus being configured to be locally wirelessly connected to a plurality of mobile devices each comprising a display and a video camera, to receive a plurality of video signals related to a plurality of participants in a video conference generated by the video cameras of the plurality of local mobile devices, to generate a video stream based on said plurality of video signals received from the plurality of local mobile devices, to transmit the video stream to said local processing device, to receive from the local processing device an output signal representing a content displayed by a display of the processing device when executing the video conferencing software and to share with the plurality of local mobile devices the output signal.

Examples disclosed herein provide the ability for remote participants in a collaborative workspace to hear and view specified participants in a conference room. In on example, a computing device may receive streams of content from devices located in a room, and receive requests from users. As an example, each user request is for accessing a subset of the streams of content. For each user request, the computing device may join the requested subset of the streams of content into a single multimedia stream, and transmit each single multimedia stream to respective users.

This disclosure describes a video room system that can efficiently and flexibly generate and facilitate video rooms for video chatting between participant devices by prioritizing video streams to provide to participant devices based on performance parameters. For example, the video room system can provide different video room streams to different participant devices based on the performance parameters of the participant devices. In addition, the video room system can customize or tailor video room streams based on identifying dominant speaker devices, determining connections between participant devices as indicated by a social graph of a social networking system, and/or based on join methods utilized by participant devices to join a video room.

An information processing system including a video device for displaying a video and a wireless terminal for communicating with the video device and communicating with other apparatuses via a network, wherein the video device transmits video information captured by a camera and sound information collected by a microphone when reception from the wireless terminal of information pertaining to a video to be displayed is detected, and outputs the received sound information using a speaker. The wireless terminal transmits information pertaining to the video to be displayed to the video device, the other apparatuses receive the captured video information and collected sound information via the network, and transmit information pertaining to the video to be displayed and information pertaining to the sound to be outputted.

One example method includes receiving, at a video conference server, interaction data representing a plurality of participant interactions in a virtual expo with a plurality of virtual expo elements; storing the interaction data in a data store, the interaction data including a participant identifier, a virtual expo element identifier, and an interaction characteristic; determining one or more analytics for one or more of the plurality of virtual expo elements based on the interaction data; and causing the one or more analytics for one or more of the plurality of virtual expo elements to be displayed on a client device.

One example method includes hosting, by a video conference provider, a virtual expo; receiving, from a first client device associated with a first participant in the virtual expo, a request to enter a meeting with a second participant in the virtual expo; providing, to a second client device associated with the second participant, a notification of the request to enter the meeting; receiving, from the second client device, an approval of the request; and in response to receiving the approval, joining the first client device to a second virtual meeting.

One example method for virtual expo booth previews includes joining a virtual expo hosted by a video conference provider, the virtual expo including a plurality of virtual expo booths; presenting a graphical representation of the virtual expo and one or more virtual expo booths of the plurality of virtual expo booths; receiving an input indicating a first expo booth of the plurality of virtual expo booths; receiving, from the video conference provider, one or more multimedia streams associated with the first virtual expo booth; and presenting the one or more multimedia streams
