    Abstract: A method and system for producing normalized images of conference participants so that the participants appear to be approximately the same size when the images are displayed is provided. The normalizing system normalizes the size of images based on constraints relating to the distance of participants from the location of the camera. To normalize the image of a participant, the system zooms the camera to account for the distance of the participant from the camera.

    Abstract: Provided herein are systems, methods, and software for facilitating a video conference environment. In at least one implementation, video captured of a scene is received. A modification to display of the video is identified based at least in part on a share of a display space associated with an object in the scene relative to a share of another display space associated with another object in another scene. The modification to the display of the video is then initiated. In another implementation, the modification may also be based on a target share indicated by way of an interactive graphic.

    Abstract: A real-time approximately 360 degree image correction system and a method for alleviating distortion and perception problems in images captured by omni-directional cameras. In general, the real-time panoramic image correction method generates a warp table from pixel coordinates of a panoramic image and applies the warp table to the panoramic image to create a corrected panoramic image. The corrections are performed using a parametric class of warping functions that include Spatially Varying Uniform (SVU) scaling functions. The SVU scaling functions and scaling factors are used to perform vertical scaling and horizontal scaling on the panoramic image pixel coordinates. A horizontal distortion correction is performed using the SVU scaling functions at at least two different scaling factors. This processing generates a warp table that can be applied to the panoramic image to yield the corrected panoramic image. In one embodiment the warp table is concatenated with a stitching table used to create the panoramic image.

    Abstract: An omni-directional camera (a 360 degree camera) is proposed with an integrated microphone array. The primary application for such a camera is videoconferencing and meeting recording, and the device is designed to be placed on a meeting room table. The microphone array is in a planar configuration, and the microphones are located as close to the desktop as possible to eliminate sound reflections from the table. The camera is connected to the microphone array base with a thin cylindrical rod, which is acoustically invisible to the microphone array for the frequency range Ä50-4000Ü Hz. This provides a direct path from the person talking to all of the microphones in the array, and can therefore be used for sound source localization (determining the location of the talker) and beam-forming (improving the sound quality of the talker by filtering only sound from a particular direction). The camera array is elevated from the table to provide a near frontal viewpoint of the meeting participants.

    Abstract: Se proporcionan un metodo y sistema para producir imagenes normalizadas de participantes de conferencia, de manera que los participantes aparecen aproximadamente del mismo tamano cuando las imagenes son presentadas. El sistema de normalizacion normaliza el tamano de las imagenes basandose en restricciones con relacion a la distancia de los participantes desde la ubicacion de la camara. Para normalizar la imagen de un participante, el sistema hace un acercamiento con la camara para representar la distancia del participante desde la camara.

    Abstract: Una interfase de usuario (IH) para un sistema de correccion de imagen panoramica en tiempo real (Figura 5A) y un metodo que simplifica el uso del sistema para el usuario. La UI incluye un panel de control que permite a un usuario introducir tamano y forma de tabla de compromiso, posicion y orientacion de camara, y la cantidad de normalizacion deseada (por ejemplo 0 a 100%). Tambien se puede implementar una ventana en una presentacion que muestre la imagen panoramica corregida (Figura 5A, 530). En esta ventana, la cabeza de un participante de compromiso es extraida y presentada en una ventana separada. Ademas, la imagen panoramica corregida, cuyo tamano variara junto con la cantidad de pandeo aplicada, puede ser presentada y transmitida con pixeles extras alrededor de su perimetro con el fin de permitir que la imagen panoramica corregida o normalizada se adapte a cualquiera del tamano de presentacion y resoluciones estandares y simplifique la transmision de red.
