Abstract
A system and method provide customizable interactive audio/video content to each of a plurality of computing devices. When executing at least some code stored in the memory, a processor generates a coordinated presentation by integrating in the memory, via a video mixer, one or more images from a camera with content selected by at least one user. Further the at least one processor is configured to process the coordinated presentation to provide an abridged version of the coordinated presentation at at least one of the remote devices.
Claims20
A system for providing respectively customizable interactive audio/video content to each of a plurality of computing devices, the system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- a memory that is accessible by the at least one processor;
- a camera that is accessible by the at least one processor and that is configured to capture images;
- a display that is accessible by the at least one processor and that is configured to display content;
- a touch-screen interface accessible by the at least one processor and that is configured to receive input from a user;
- and
- a communications interface that is accessible by the at least one processor and that is configured to send and receive information via a network,
- wherein, when executing at least some code stored in the memory, the at least one processor is configured to:
- join a video conference, wherein the images captured by the camera are transmitted via the communications interface to at least one other processor for inclusion in the video conference;
- generate a coordinated presentation that includes a copy of the video conference, wherein the coordinated presentation is configured to enable respective interaction at each of a plurality of remote devices, such that results of a respective interaction at a particular remote device are viewable at the particular remote device but are not viewable at other of the remote devices, wherein the coordinated presentation is further configured to be transmitted to the one or more remote devices;
- process the coordinated presentation to provide an abridged version of the video conference at at least one of the remote devices;
- and
- process the coordinated presentation to provide a text transcription of the video conference while playback of the coordinated presentation is paused.
A method for providing respectively customizable interactive audio/video content to each of a plurality of computing devices, the method comprising:
- accessing, by at least one processor, a memory that stores code for configuring the at least one processor;
- joining, by the at least one processor, a video conference, wherein images captured by a camera configured with the at least one processor are transmitted via a communications interface to at least one other processor for inclusion in the video conference;
- generating, by the at least one processor, a coordinated presentation that includes a copy of the video conference, wherein the coordinated presentation is configured to enable respective interaction at each of a plurality of remote devices, such that results of a respective interaction at a particular remote device are viewable at the particular remote device but are not viewable at other of the remote devices, wherein the coordinated presentation is further configured to be transmitted to the one or more remote devices;
- processing, by the at least one processor, the coordinated presentation to provide an abridged version of the video conference at at least one of the remote devices;
- and
- processing, by the at least one processor, the coordinated presentation to provide a text transcription of the video conference while playback of the coordinated presentation is paused.
