Original Abstract Submitted
the present technology pertains to initiating and then sharing a capture session. according to at least one example, the present technology includes receiving, from a first device, a request to initiate a shared capture session. in response, the first device launches a capture session that receives audio, video, and screen data from the first device. the first device can then share the capture session with another user, via a link. after a second user selects the link at a second device, audio and video data from the second device are added to the capture session. the capture session aggregates and captures the audio, video, and screen data from both devices. after the capture session ends, a captured media object from the capture session can be stored at the first device, and sent to the second device, and the content management system.
