Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for generating a presentation space for two or more communication devices using a computer coupled with a database and comprising a processor and memory. The computer generates a presentation space and transmits requests to join the presentation space to the two or more communication devices. The computer stores in memory identification information for each of the two or more communication devices. The computer transmits the presentation space to the two or more communication devices and detects chat messages transmitted between the two or more communication devices. The computer also detects screenshot capture commands transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the computer. The computer records one or more screenshots in response to the screenshot capture commands and displays one or more screenshots in the presentation space.

Claims17

Dependent claims

A system, comprising:

two or more communication devices;
and
a cloud system comprising a database and a computer comprising a processor and memory, the cloud system configured to generate a presentation space in which the two or more communication devices participate by:
generating, by the computer, a presentation space;
transmitting requests to join the presentation space to the two or more communication devices;
storing in the database identification information for each of the two or more communication devices;
transmitting the presentation space to the two or more communication devices;
detecting chat messages transmitted between the two or more communication devices;
monitoring, by the computer at an interval of time, the two or more communication devices for screenshot capture commands;
detecting, by the computer in response to the monitoring, the screenshot capture commands transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the cloud system;
after detecting, by the computer, a screenshot capture command transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the cloud system:
delaying, by the computer, storing of one or more screenshots in the database for a period of time that provides for a user associated with the communication device to evaluate the one or more screenshots;
deleting, by the computer, the one or more screenshots or storing the one or more screenshots in the database in response to an instruction from a user;
and
displaying, by the computer, one or more screenshots in the presentation space.

12 more elements

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

generating, using a cloud system comprising a database and a computer comprising a processor and memory, a presentation space in which two or more communication devices participate;
transmitting requests to join the presentation space to the two or more communication devices;
storing in the database identification information for each of the two or more communication devices;
transmitting the presentation space to the two or more communication devices;
detecting chat messages transmitted between the two or more communication devices;
monitoring, by the computer at an interval of time, the two or more communication devices for screenshot capture commands;
detecting, by the computer in response to the monitoring, the screenshot capture commands transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the cloud system;
after detecting, by the computer, a screenshot capture command transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the cloud system:
delaying, by the computer, storing of one or more screenshots in the database for a period of time that provides for a user associated with the communication device to evaluate the one or more screenshots;
deleting, by the computer, the one or more screenshots or storing the one or more screenshots in the database in response to an instruction from the user;
and
displaying, by the computer, one or more screenshots in the presentation space.

9 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium embodied with software, the software when executed configured to:

generate, using a cloud system comprising a database and a computer comprising a processor and memory, a presentation space in which two or more communication devices participate;
transmit requests to join the presentation space to the two or more communication devices;
store in the database identification information for each of the two or more communication devices;
transmit the presentation space to the two or more communication devices;
detect chat messages transmitted between the two or more communication devices;
monitor, by the computer at an interval of time, the two or more communication devices for screenshot capture commands;
detect, by the computer in response to the monitoring, the screenshot capture commands transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the cloud system;
after detecting, by the computer, a screenshot capture command transmitted by one of the two or more communication devices to the cloud system:
delay, by the computer, storing of one or more screenshots in the database for a period of time that provides for a user associated with the communication device to evaluate the one or more screenshots;
delete, by the computer, the one or more screenshots or store the one or more screenshots in the database in response to an instruction from the user;
and
display, by the computer, one or more screenshots in the presentation space.
