Abstract: A method for auto focus on a speaker during a communication session includes receiving video captured of a scene that includes a plurality of images of participants to the communication session, identifying the plurality of images of the participants in the video captured of the scene, recognizing audio from at least one of the participants, detecting facial movement in one of the images of the plurality of images and equating the recognized audio to the detected movement in the one of the images of the plurality of images. The method also includes selecting the one of the images of the plurality of images as a speaker based on the equated recognized audio to the detected movement in the one of the images, zooming in on the speaker and filtering out a remainder of the images of the plurality of images.

Abstract: The VoIP quality speech process is activated when a subscriber accesses a speech quality sensitive resource or in response to an activation of the feature by the subscriber, or when it is determined that the originating subscriber terminal device requires the transmission of high quality speech signals. A transmit buffer, associated with the port circuit that serves the originating device, stores a predetermined number of packets as they are transmitted from the originating device. In the case of lost or damaged packets, the VoIP quality speech system activates the transmit buffer to retransmit the missing or damaged packet to the destination device. Intelligent buffer management is provided, where the destination device can regulate the size of the transmit buffer as well as the size of it's jitter buffer.
