QUALITY STATUS LOOPBACK FOR ONLINE COLLABORATION SESSIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18397668 titled 'QUALITY STATUS LOOPBACK FOR ONLINE COLLABORATION SESSIONS

Simplified Explanation

The example apparatus described in the abstract is designed to analyze network data and local data during an online collaboration session to determine quality scores and transmit loopback messages to a moderator client.

  • The apparatus receives network data, including media data packets, via a first channel associated with the online collaboration session.
  • It analyzes the network data to determine first loopback data, which includes quality scores based on analyses of the received media data packets.
  • The apparatus also analyzes local data obtained by a local client during the online collaboration session to determine second loopback data.
  • It then transmits a loopback message to a moderator client via a second channel, based on the first loopback data and the second loopback data.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in online collaboration platforms, video conferencing systems, and remote learning environments to monitor and improve the quality of media data transmission.

Problems Solved

This technology helps identify and address issues related to the quality of media data packets during online collaboration sessions, ensuring a smoother and more effective communication experience for all participants.

Benefits

The apparatus allows for real-time monitoring and analysis of network and local data, enabling prompt feedback and adjustments to enhance the overall quality of the online collaboration session.

Potential Commercial Applications

This technology could be valuable for companies offering online collaboration tools, video conferencing services, and educational platforms seeking to optimize the user experience and ensure high-quality media data transmission.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art in this field may include technologies for analyzing network data, monitoring media data packets, and providing feedback on data transmission quality in online communication systems.

Unanswered Questions

How does the apparatus handle different types of media data packets during the analysis process?

The abstract does not specify the specific methods or algorithms used to analyze different types of media data packets for determining quality scores.

What measures are in place to ensure the security and privacy of the transmitted loopback messages?

The abstract does not mention any security protocols or encryption methods that may be implemented to protect the loopback messages transmitted to the moderator client.


Original Abstract Submitted

An example apparatus disclosed herein is to receive network data communicated via a first channel associated with the online collaboration session, the network data including received media data packets. The disclosed example apparatus is also to analyze the network data to determine first loopback data, the first loopback data including at least one of a first quality score based on a first analysis of the received media data packets or a second quality score based on a second analysis of media decoded from the received media data packets. The disclosed example apparatus is also to analyze local data obtained by a local client during the online collaboration session to determine second loopback data. The disclosed example apparatus is further to cause transmission of a loopback message to a moderator client via the second channel, the loopback message based on the first loopback data and the second loopback data.
