Abstract: Method of generating a signal associated with a participant of video communication including providing at least two sensors in a meeting location for acquiring a respective sensor signal; providing a host processing device for each of the at least two sensors for receiving and analysing the respective sensor signal for generating respective metadata; each host processing device sending the respective metadata to a client processing device; the client processing device determining whether to request at least a part of the respective sensor signal acquired by at least one of the at least two sensors; upon determining to request the respective sensor signal, the client processing device sending a request to the host processing device receiving the respective sensor signal; upon receiving the request, the host processing device sending the sensor signal to the client processing device; the client processing device generating the signal associated with the participant for video communication.

Abstract: Systems and methods for mediating an audio source during a meeting are provided. An active audio source is identified and mapped to instances connected to a communications and collaboration platform to determine a mapped instance. An audio signal device is determined from multiple devices for capturing audio from the active audio source. An audio system is configured to manipulate an active audio signal from the audio signal device via the mapped instance. In some cases, upon identifying a new active audio source, a new mapped instance is determined corresponding to the new active audio source.
