Abstract
A computer assisted meeting capture system in which camera selection, camera control and sensor notification of candidate activity event for camera image changes are integrated. The information is displayed on a representation of a room layout. Camera switch suggestions are notified to the operator through the use of low-overhead cognitive cues such as changeable human sensible display characteristics.
Claims18
A computer assisted meeting capture system comprising:
- a meeting capture controller;
- a camera;
- a sensor to determine sensed activity information;
- stored object position information to;
- stored rule information;
- wherein the meeting capture controller displays at least one of suggested camera and suggested camera angle selections based on sensed activity information, stored object position information and stored rule information.
A method of computer assisted meeting capture comprising the steps of:
- determining activity information from a sensor;
- displaying at least one of suggested camera and suggested camera angle selection based on determined sensed activity information based on stored object position information and stored rule information.
A carrier wave encoded to transmit a control program usable for computer assisted meeting capture to a device for executing the control program, the control program including instructions comprising:
- instructions for determining activity information from a sensor;
- instructions for displaying at least one of suggested camera and suggested camera angle selection based on determined sensed activity information based on stored object position information and stored rule information.
A computer readable storage medium, comprising,
- computer readable program code embodied on the computer readable storage medium, the computer readable program code usable to program a computer to perform computer assisted meeting capture further comprising the steps of:
- instructions for determining activity information from a sensor;
- instructions for displaying at least one of suggested camera and suggested camera angle selection based on determined sensed activity information based on stored object position information and stored rule information.
A method of computer assisted meeting capture comprising the steps of:
- determining activity information from a sensor comprising sensing movement information obtained from at least one of passive infra-red detectors, microwave detectors, photo-detectors and ultrasound detectors;
- displaying at least one of suggested camera and suggested camera angle selection based on determined sensed activity information based on stored object position information and stored rule information.
A computer assisted meeting capture system comprising:
- a meeting capture controller;
- a camera;
- a sensor to determine sensed activity information;
- stored object position information to;
- stored rule information;
- wherein the meeting capture controller displays at least one of suggested camera and suggested camera angle selections based on sensed activity information, stored object position information and stored rule information, and wherein the sensor information comprises at least one of sound information, movement information and presence information and wherein the stored object location information is obtained automatically by at least one of a geo-positioning system signal and a mobile locator service signal.
