Identifying A Speaking Conference Participant In A Physical Space - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240257816 titled 'Identifying A Speaking Conference Participant In A Physical Space

The abstract describes a conference system that can identify a local conference participant speaking in a user interface of a remote conference participant. The system captures audio data of a conference participant speaking in a physical space with at least two participants, determines the participant's identity based on sensor data, and generates an output to show the participant's identity alongside their speech audio.

  • The conference system can identify a local conference participant speaking in a remote conference participant's user interface.
  • Audio data of a conference participant speaking in a physical space with at least two participants is captured.
  • The participant's identity is determined based on sensor data from a sensor device in the physical space.
  • An output is generated to display the participant's identity along with their speech audio.

Potential Applications: - Remote collaboration tools - Virtual meetings and conferences - Teleconferencing systems

Problems Solved: - Enhances remote communication by providing visual identification of speakers - Improproves user experience in virtual meetings and conferences

Benefits: - Facilitates better understanding and engagement in remote communication - Streamlines virtual collaboration and communication processes

Original Abstract Submitted

a conference system is configured to identify a local conference participant who is speaking in a user interface of a remote conference participant. the conference system captures audio data of a conference participant who is speaking in a physical space having at least two conference participants. an identity of the conference participant is determined based on sensor data captured by a sensor device associated with the physical space. the conference system generates an output configured to cause a client application to present a representation of the identity of the conference participant who is speaking concurrently with a presentation of speech audio of the conference participant who is speaking.
