  • VIDEO STREAM MANIPULATION
    Publication number: 20240054786
    Abstract: A method for manipulating an initial video stream captured by a camera in a video conferencing endpoint into multiple views corresponding to regions of interest. The method comprises detecting objects of one or more predefined types in a frame of the initial video stream; selecting a plurality of crop regions (2200a, 2200b, 2200c) from the frame of the initial video stream, and transmitting the plurality of crop regions. Each crop region includes at least one bounding box and each bounding box includes a detected object of a predefined type.
