Patent number: 9041765Abstract: A new approach is proposed that contemplates systems and methods to support the operation of a Virtual Media Room or Virtual Meeting Room (VMR), wherein each VMR can accept from a plurality of participants at different geographic locations a variety of video conferencing feeds of audio and video streams from video conference endpoints and enables a multi-party video conferencing session in real time among the plurality of participants. Each of the participants is offered a rich set of conferencing and collaboration interaction hitherto not experienced by video conferencing participants and a moderator of the video conference is further offered with in-meeting management and control over a plurality of security and privacy settings during the video conference. These interactions encompass controlling of a video conferencing session, its configuration, privacy, security, the visual layout of the participants, customization of the VMR and adaptation of the room to different vertical applications.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2011Date of Patent: May 26, 2015Assignee: Blue Jeans NetworkInventors: Alagu Periyannan, Krish Ramakrishnan, Raghavan Anand, Anand Raghavan, Ravi Kiran Kalluri, Emmanuel Weber

Patent number: 8885013Abstract: A new approach is proposed that contemplates systems and methods to support the operation of a Virtual Media Room or Virtual Meeting Room (VMR), wherein each VMR can accept from a plurality of participants at different geographic locations a variety of video conferencing feeds of audio and video streams from video conference endpoints. The approach provides various ways for the participants to the video conference to access, control, and interact with each other during the conference for a customized personal experience. A globally distributed infrastructure supports the sharing of the event among the participants at geographically distributed locations through a plurality of MCUs (Multipoint Control Unit), each configured to process the plurality of audio and video streams from the plurality of video conference endpoints in real time.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2011Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Blue Jeans Network, Inc.Inventors: Alagu Periyannan, Krish Ramakrishnan, Raghavan Anand, Michael Grupenhoff, Anand Raghavan, Ravi Kiran Kalluri, Emmanuel Weber

Patent number: 8875031Abstract: A new approach is proposed that contemplates systems and methods to support the operation of a Virtual Media Room or Virtual Meeting Room (VMR), wherein each VMR can accept from a plurality of participants at different geographic locations a variety of video conferencing feeds of audio and video streams from video conference endpoints. The approach provides collaborative viewing of an event through the VMR so that the participants at geographically distributed locations are able to simultaneously participate and share the experience of the event together. An initiating participant of the event sharing is further offered with in-meeting management and control over the content to be shared at the event.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2011Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: Blue Jeans Network, Inc.Inventors: Alagu Periyannan, Krish Ramakrishnan, Raghavan Anand, Michael Grupenhoff, Anand Raghavan, Ravi Kiran Kalluri, Emmanuel Weber

Systems and Methods for Scalable Composition of Media Streams for Real-Time Multimedia Communication
Publication number: 20140092203Abstract: A new approach is proposed that contemplates systems and methods to support the operation of a Virtual Media Room or Virtual Meeting Room (VMR), wherein each VMR can accept from a plurality of participants at different geographic locations a variety of video conferencing feeds from video conference endpoints that can be either proprietary or standards-based and enable a multi-party video conferencing session among the plurality of participants by composing one composite audio and video stream for each of the participants. Each single VMR can be implemented across an infrastructure of globally distributed set of servers/media processing nodes co-located in Points of Presence (POPs) for Internet access. Each VMR also gives its users a rich set of conferencing and collaboration interaction hitherto not experienced by video conferencing users.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2013Publication date: April 3, 2014Inventors: Alagu Periyannan, Raghavan Anand, Michael Grupenhoff, Ravi Kiran Kalluri, Emmanuel Weber -
