Patent number: 12659425Abstract: In example implementations, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a video camera to capture images, a proximity sensor to measure a distance of a moving object from the video camera, and a processor communicatively coupled to the video camera and the proximity sensor. The processor is to execute a video call application, detect the moving object within the video images transmitted by the video call application, determine that the moving object is located at a distance greater than a distance threshold, and remove the moving object from the video images transmitted by the video call application in response to the distance of the moving object being located being greater than the distance threshold.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2020Date of Patent: June 16, 2026Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Isaac Lagnado, Christopher Steven, Robert Campbell
