Abstract
A teleprompter system and method include use of a touch-screen interface positioned intermediate to the user and a camera such that the camera captures the user's image through a transparency of the touch-screen interface. The touch screen interface is coupled to a computer and is operably connected so as to enable user control and manipulation of interactive media content generated by the computer. A video mixing component integrates images captured by the camera with interactive media content generated by the computer, as may be manipulated by the user via the touch-screen interface, to generate a coordinated presentation. The coordinated presentation can be received by one or more remote devices. The remote devices can further interact with at least the interactive media content.
Claims19
A teleprompter system for generating a coordinated presentation to be viewed by one or more remote devices, the system comprising,
- a computer configured by code and operable to generate interactive media content to be displayed on a display;
- a camera for capturing images of a user;
- a display coupled to the computer that displays the media content generated from the computer;
- a touch-screen interface having a transparency positioned intermediate to the user and the camera and positioned such that the camera captures the user's image through the transparency of the touch-screen interface, the touch screen interface being coupled to the computer and operable to enable user control and manipulation of the media content generated by the computer and displayed on the display;
- and
- a video mixer coupled to the camera and operative to integrate the user's image captured by the camera together with the interactive media content generated by the computer as manipulated by the user via the touch-screen interface, thereby generating the coordinated presentation;
- wherein the one or more remote devices can receive the coordinated presentation and interact with at least the media content.
A presentation system for generating a coordinated presentation to be viewed by one or more remote devices, the system comprising,
- a computer having a processor and a memory, the computer being configured by code stored in the memory and executed by the processor to generate interactive media content to be displayed on a display;
- a camera for capturing one or more images;
- a display coupled to the computer that displays the media content generated from the computer;
- a touch-screen interface coupled to the computer and operable to enable user control and manipulation of the media content generated by the computer and displayed on the display;
- and
- a video mixer module stored in the memory which, when executed by the processor, integrates the images captured by the camera together with the interactive media content generated by the computer as manipulated by the user via the touch-screen interface, and thereby generates the coordinated presentation;
- wherein the one or more remote devices can receive the coordinated presentation and interact with at least the media content.
