Patent Applications by Zoom Video Communications, Inc.
Inventor(s): Jose Luis ESPINOSA, JR. of Chattanooga TN (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Thanh Le Nguyen of Belle Chasse LA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Andrew James Ruhland of Memphis TN (US) for zoom video communications, inc.
IPC Code(s): G05B19/042
CPC Code(s): G05B19/042
Abstract: some examples relate to optimizing energy efficiency associated with workspaces in a building. in one specific example, a system can receive a selected time from a user for reserving a workspace in a building, the system can determine a recommended workspace for the user at the selected time based on an energy efficiency strategy. the system can then transmit at least one control signal to at least one control system associated with the recommended workspace. the at least one control system can receive the at least one control signal and responsively adjust at least one environmental condition associated with the recommended workspace from a first setting to a second setting. the at least one control system can adjust the at least one environmental condition from the first setting to the second setting by the selected time or within a predefined timeframe after the selected time.
Inventor(s): Richard Dean Legatski of Castle Rock CO (US) for zoom video communications, inc.
IPC Code(s): G06T13/00, G06T3/40, G06T7/55
CPC Code(s): G06T13/00
Abstract: methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media related to visual asset display and controlled movement in a video communication session. the system provides for display, via a user interface, video of a meeting participant during a video communication session. a visual asset for display is selected. the visual asset is provided for display via the user interface. the visual asset is maneuvered along a path about the user interface such that the visual asset moves about the user interface during the video communication session.

IPC Code(s): H04L12/18
CPC Code(s): H04L12/1822
Abstract: methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media related to display configuration for a communications session. the system assigns a display location for each of multiple meeting participants. a meeting participant is associated with an unique identifier of the meeting participant. a user interface configured to display meeting participants at display locations is displayed. after a particular meeting participant has joined a first video conferencing session, the user interface display the particular meeting participant at their assigned display location.

IPC Code(s): H04L65/70, H04L12/18, H04N19/44
CPC Code(s): H04L65/70
Abstract: one disclosed example method includes receiving, by a video conference provider, video frames from a plurality of existing participants in a video conference; receiving, by the video conference provider, a request from a new user to join the video conference, and in response: generating, by the video conference provider, an instantaneous decoder refresh (idr) frame; determining, by the video conference provider, one or more prior video frames previously acknowledged by each existing participant of the plurality of existing participants; generating, by the video conference provider, a benchmark frame for each of the plurality of existing participants based on at least one of the determined one or more prior video frames and the idr frame; transmitting, by the video conference provider, the idr frame to the new user; and transmitting, by the video conference provider, a message comprising the benchmark frame to each of the plurality of existing participants.
Inventor(s): Abhishek Balaji of San Jose CA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Anna Deng of San Jose CA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Chichen Fu of San Jose CA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Pei Li of San Jose CA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Bo Ling of Saratoga CA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Juliana Park of San Francisco CA (US) for zoom video communications, inc., Qiang Li of Hangzhou (CN) for zoom video communications, inc., Wenchong Lin of Zhejiang (CN) for zoom video communications, inc.
IPC Code(s): H04N5/262, H04N5/272, H04N7/15
CPC Code(s): H04N5/2621
Abstract: methods and systems provide for applying a video effect to a video corresponding to a participant within a video communication session. the system displays a video for each of at least a subset of the participants and a user interface including a selectable video effects ui element. the system receives a selection by a participant of the video effects ui element. in response to receiving the selection, the system displays a variety of video effects options for modifying the appearance of the video and/or modifying a visual representation of the participant. the system then receives a selection by the participant of a video effects option, and further receives a subselection for customizing the amount of the video effect to be applied. the system then applies, in real time or substantially real time, the selected video effect in the selected amount to the video corresponding to the participant.

IPC Code(s): H04N5/272, H04N5/262
CPC Code(s): H04N5/272
Abstract: various embodiments of an apparatus, method(s), system(s) and computer program product(s) described herein are directed to a scaling engine. the scaling engine identifies a background object portrayed in a background template for a video feed. the scaling engine determines a background template display position for concurrent display of the background object with video feed data. the scaling engine generates a scaled background template by modifying a current aspect ratio of the background template with the background object set at the background display position according to a video feed aspect ratio. the scaling engine generates a merged video feed by merging the scaled background template with live video feed data, the merged video feed data providing an unobstructed portrayal of the identified background object.
