  • Patent number: 11950021
    Abstract: In one aspect, a first device may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive, from a second device different from the first device, a camera feed of a meeting. The instructions may also be executable to determine that the camera feed shows a first display presenting a particular piece of electronic content. Based on the determination, the instructions may then be executable to overlay, on the camera feed as presented on a second display, a separate video feed of the particular piece of electronic content.

  • Patent number: 11927984
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a support member, a first body, and a second body. The first body is of a plate shape and includes a first surface. A first I/O device is arranged on the first surface. The second body is of a plate shape. Ends of the first body and the second body are rotatably connected. In a first positional relationship, the first body and the second body are parallel to each other. In a second positional relationship, the first body and the second body form an angle. In a supported state, the first I/O device faces away from the second body, and the support member is between the first body and the second body to limit the first body from approaching the second body. In an unsupported state, the support member does not limit the first body from approaching the second body.
