  • Publication number: 20230306618
    Abstract: A method may include identifying primly camera speaker coordinates of a location of a speaker relative to a primary camera, converting the primary camera speaker coordinates to secondary camera speaker coordinates, the secondary camera speaker coordinates being of the location and relative to a secondary camera, and adjusting, using the secondary camera speaker coordinates of the secondary camera, a view setting of the secondary camera to track the location of the speaker.

  • Publication number: 20230186654
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for identifying and displaying whiteboard text and/or an active speaker in a video-based presentation, e.g., a video conference. Video images of an environment including a whiteboard may be captured by a video camera system. The video images may be analyzed to detect at least one text-containing area in the environment. Each text-containing area may be analyzed to determine whether it is an area of a whiteboard. When a text-containing area is identified as a whiteboard area, an area of view including the text-containing whiteboard area may be selected for display, e.g., a subset of the full frame captured by the video system. A video feed from the video camera system may be controlled to display the selected area of view at a client device, to provide a useful view of the whiteboard text and/or a speaking person located near the whiteboard text.

  • Publication number: 20230136314
    Abstract: A method may include calculating a color gain by applying an automatic white balance (AWB) algorithm to a video frame of a video feed, calculating an illumination color by applying a machine learning model to the video frame, transforming the illumination color into an equivalent color gain, determining that a difference between the color gain and the equivalent color gain exceeds a difference threshold, reversing an effect of the illumination color on the video frame based on the threshold being exceeded to obtain a corrected video frame, and transmitting the corrected video frame to an endpoint.
