Abstract: Methods and systems provide for the ability to display reactions within a video communication session. First, the system displays, for each of a number of participants within a video communication session, a user interface (UI), with the UI including a reactions session with a variety of selectable visual reactions, a number of participant windows corresponding to participants, and videos of at least a subset of the participants which are displayed within the participant windows. The system receives a selection of a reaction via a video client device connected to the video communication session, where the client device is associated with one of the participants. The system then displays the selected reaction within the UI of at least one of the participants within the corresponding participant windows for a predetermined period of time. Aggregate reactions may be displayed when a number of participants select the same reaction.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide for video appearance adjustments within a video communication session. First, the system receives video content. The system then receives an appearance adjustment request comprising an adjustment depth, and detects imagery of a user within the video content. The system then detects a face region within the video content. The system segments the face region into a number of skin areas. For each of the plurality of skin areas, the system classifies the skin area as a smooth texture region or rough texture region. If the skin area is classified as a smooth texture region, the system modifies the imagery of the user in real time or substantially real time by applying a smoothing process to the skin area, where the amount of smoothing applied corresponds to the adjustment depth.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide for low lighting adjustments within a video communication session. First, the system receives video content within a video communication session of a video communication platform, the video content having multiple video frames. The system then receives or generates a lighting adjustment request including a lighting adjustment depth, then detects an amount of lighting in the video content. The system then modifies the video content to adjust the amount of lighting, wherein the amount of adjustment of lighting corresponds to the adjustment depth, and wherein adjusting the amount of lighting is performed in real time or substantially real time upon receiving the lighting adjustment request.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and systems for a video conference widget for scaled integration. The video conference widget may include a self-contained software module that defines a plurality of video conferencing functions associated with the functionality provided by a video conference provider. The video conference widget may receive a command for a first video conference function from a software interface of a software application that is separate from the video conference widget. In response to the command, the video conference widget may output a signal to a video conference provider to perform the video conference function.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide for applying a video effect to a video corresponding to a participant within a video communication session. The system displays a video for each of at least a subset of the participants and a user interface including a selectable video effects UI element. The system receives a selection by a participant of the video effects UI element. In response to receiving the selection, the system displays a variety of video effects options for modifying the appearance of the video and/or modifying a visual representation of the participant. The system then receives a selection by the participant of a video effects option, and further receives a subselection for customizing the amount of the video effect to be applied. The system then applies, in real time or substantially real time, the selected video effect in the selected amount to the video corresponding to the participant.

Abstract: Various embodiments of an apparatus, method(s), system(s) and computer program product(s) described herein are directed to an Archiving Engine that detects a regulated user account(s) joining a virtual meeting and instantiating a virtual meeting participant instance to capturing one or more communication channels of the virtual meeting hosted by a communication system. The Archiving Engine generates an archival file(s) based on the captured communication channel data. The Archiving Engine generates one or more translated files by applying a compliance policy associated with at least one of the regulated user accounts to the one or more archival files.
