==DEEP APERTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17960741 titled 'DEEP APERTURE

==Simplified Explanation==

The techniques disclosed in this patent application provide a realistic and immersive experience for videoconference participants without the need for wearable technology. By creating a spatially correct stereoscopic view of a remote scene for each local participant, the sense of physical presence is enhanced, allowing for direct eye contact, clear communication of emotional state, and a shared visual and audio experience across locations.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

The techniques disclosed herein enable a realistic, inclusive sense of physical presence for videoconference participants that is comparable to in-person communication. Multiple users are simultaneously provided with an immersive experience without the need for head-mounted displays or other wearable technology. Specifically, a real-time three-dimensional model of a scene at the remote end of the videoconference is received. At the same time, the location and perspective of each local participant is determined. Each local participant is then individually provided with a spatially correct stereoscopic view of the model. The sense of physical presence is created by changing what each local participant sees in response to a change in their perspective. The sense of physical presence is enhanced by enabling direct eye contact, clear communication of emotional state and other non-verbal cues, and a shared visual experience and audio ambience across locations.
