  • Patent number: 11563784
    Abstract: Systems are provided for managing and coordinating STT/TTS systems and the communications between these systems when they are connected in online meetings and for mitigating connectivity issues that may arise during the online meetings to provide a seamless and reliable meeting experience with either live captions and/or rendered audio. Initially, online meeting communications are transmitted over a lossy connectionless type protocol/channel. Then, in response to detected connectivity problems with one or more systems involved in the online meeting, which can cause jitter or packet loss, for example, an instruction is dynamically generated and processed for causing one or more of the connected systems to transmit and/or process the online meeting content with a more reliable connection/protocol, such as a connection-oriented protocol. Codecs at the systems are used, when needed to convert speech to text with related speech attribute information and to convert text to speech.
