Graphical User Interface Configuration For Display At An Output Interface During A Video Conference - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240329798 titled 'Graphical User Interface Configuration For Display At An Output Interface During A Video Conference
The abstract describes a patent application for a graphical user interface (GUI) that can be displayed during a video conference, featuring visual elements associated with participant devices. These visual elements, such as video feeds and images, can be moved within the GUI based on characteristics and inputs.
- The GUI includes visual elements like video feeds and images of participant devices.
- Visual elements can be moved based on characteristics and inputs.
- Elements can be arranged in two-dimensional or three-dimensional layouts.
- Movement can be triggered by communications, participant arrivals, or communication modalities during the conference.
Potential Applications: - Video conferencing platforms - Virtual meetings - Remote collaboration tools
Problems Solved: - Enhances user experience during video conferences - Allows for better organization and customization of the interface
Benefits: - Improved visual representation of participants - Enhanced user control and customization options - Facilitates smoother communication and collaboration
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Video Conferencing GUI for Improved User Experience" This technology can be used in video conferencing software for businesses, educational institutions, and remote teams. It can improve the overall user experience and make virtual meetings more engaging and productive.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the GUI enhance the user experience during video conferences? - The GUI allows for better organization and customization of visual elements, making it easier for participants to interact and engage effectively. 2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond video conferencing? - This technology could potentially be used in virtual reality environments or other collaborative platforms to enhance user interactions and visual representations.
Original Abstract Submitted
a graphical user interface (gui) may be configured for display at an output interface during a video conference. the gui may comprise visual elements associated with participant devices of the video conference. for example, the visual elements may include video feeds and/or images associated with the participant devices. during the video conference, a first visual element may be moved to a location in the gui based on a characteristic associated with the first visual element. the characteristic and the location may be based on an input. in some implementations, the visual elements may be arranged in a two-dimensional visual layout. in some implementations, the visual elements may be arranged in a three-dimensional visual layout. the visual elements may be moved, for example, based on a communication sent during the video conference, an arrival of a participant to the video conference, and/or a communication modality used during the video conference.
