  • Publication number: 20250039010
    Abstract: In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a method including: digitizing a physical visual aid presented in a hybrid collaborative communication session to generate a digitized visual aid and data indicative of content of the physical visual aid; correlating the content of the physical visual aid with participant interactions within the hybrid collaborative communication session; and generating hybrid collaborative communication session content based upon the correlating the content of the physical visual aid with the participant interactions within the hybrid collaborative communication session.

  • Publication number: 20250039532
    Abstract: In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a method including: controlling, during a collaborative communication session, a first camera of a collaborative communication session endpoint system to provide room scanning of a room in which the collaborative communication session endpoint system is arranged; controlling a second camera of the collaborative communication session endpoint system to image an active speaker participant in the collaborative communication session; and controlling a third camera of the collaborative communication session endpoint system to image a physical visual aid associated with the active speaker participant.

  • Patent number: 11943131
    Abstract: A method comprises: by a controller to communicate with devices of a network, storing classifiers assigned to groups of the devices to identify device commonality for each group; associating, to the classifiers, historical probabilities of success with which an automated response executed by one or more of the devices remediates a device alarm event; when a device of the devices reports the device alarm event, identifying each classifier to which the device belongs, each historical probability for each classifier, and a rule with classifier thresholds for the automated response; determining to execute the automated response on the device by evaluating the rule using each historical probability and the classifier thresholds; after the automated response is executed, performing a service test supported across the devices, and monitoring test results from the service test; and after the service test, updating each historical probability using the test results.
