  • Publication number: 20240414437
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to power video conferencing and remote collaboration with subsymbolic and symbolic artificial intelligence. The autonomous video conferencing systems of this disclosure include one main smart camera and multiple peripheral smart cameras, optionally coupled with one or more smart sensors. Each smart camera is equipped with a vision pipeline supported by machine learning to detect objects and their interactions as well as related changes in gesture and posture, and a virtual director adapted to apply a predetermined rule set consistent with television studio production principles. The main camera is adapted to select and update a focus video stream in real time under the direction of its virtual director and stream the updated focus stream to a user computer. Methods for creating an automated television studio production for a variety of conferencing spaces and special-purpose scenarios with virtual director assistance are provided.

  • Publication number: 20240257553
    Abstract: Consistent with disclosed embodiments, systems and methods for analyzing video output streams and generating a primary video stream may be provided. Embodiments may include automatically analyzing a first video output stream and a second video output stream, based on at least one identity indicator, to determine whether a first representation of a meeting participant and a second representation of a meeting participant correspond to a common meeting participant. Disclosed embodiments may involve evaluating the first representation and the second representation of the common meeting participant relative to one or more predetermined criteria. Embodiments may involve selecting, based on the evaluation, either the first video output stream or the second video output stream as a source of a framed representation of the common meeting participant to be output as a primary video stream.

  • Publication number: 20240257383
    Abstract: Consistent with disclosed embodiments, systems and methods for analyzing video output streams and generating a primary video stream may be provided. Embodiments may include a video conferencing camera configured to generate a video output representative of an environment. The video conferencing camera may comprise a video processing unit configured to determine, for a plurality of subjects represented in the video output, whether each of the plurality of subjects is inside or outside of a meeting region within the environment. The video processing unit may be further configured to determine a frame configuration for a primary video stream, constituting a portion of the video output, to be shown on a display based on one or more characteristics of at least one subject, among the plurality of subjects, determined to be located inside the meeting region.
