SHARING CONTENT ACROSS VIDEOCONFERENCING SUB-MEETINGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240357059 titled 'SHARING CONTENT ACROSS VIDEOCONFERENCING SUB-MEETINGS
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for sharing content across videoconferencing sub-meetings. This method involves establishing a videoconferencing session with a main meeting and a first sub-meeting, transmitting content from a first client to be displayed in the main meeting, receiving a request from a second client to subscribe to the data stream carrying the content, and displaying the content in the first sub-meeting simultaneously with the main meeting.
- The method involves setting up a videoconferencing session with a main meeting and a sub-meeting.
- Content is transmitted from one client to be displayed in the main meeting.
- Another client can request to subscribe to the data stream carrying the content.
- The content is then displayed in the sub-meeting at the same time as in the main meeting.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in virtual classrooms to share educational content with students in different locations. - It can also be utilized in corporate settings for remote team meetings where participants need access to the same information.
Problems Solved: - Enables seamless sharing of content across different videoconferencing sub-meetings. - Facilitates real-time collaboration and communication among participants in various locations.
Benefits: - Enhances communication and collaboration in virtual meetings. - Improves efficiency by allowing participants to access shared content simultaneously. - Increases engagement and interaction among meeting attendees.
Commercial Applications: Virtual meeting platforms can integrate this technology to enhance user experience and improve collaboration among participants, leading to increased adoption and customer satisfaction.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the efficiency of sharing content in videoconferencing meetings? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in real-world scenarios?
Original Abstract Submitted
one example method for sharing content across videoconferencing sub-meetings includes establishing a videoconferencing session including a main meeting and a first sub-meeting, transmitting, from a first client, a content to be displayed over a data stream in the main meeting, transmitting, from a second client, a request to subscribe to the data stream over which the content is transmitted, and responsive to the request to subscribe to the data stream, receiving the content to be displayed in the first sub-meeting simultaneously with the content displayed in the main meeting.
