Abstract
An intrusion detection system detects when an unexpected person enters the environment of a user who is in a meeting. A privacy protection action which is an action that is to be taken in response to the detected intrusion, is identified. Audio and/or video systems are then controlled to perform the privacy protection action. Machine learning can be used, based upon user interactions, to improve intrusion detection and other parts of the system.
Claims20
A computer system, comprising:
- a privacy protection system that receives meeting visual data indicative of a visual environment of a current meeting that a user is attending using a user device;
- a visual intrusion detection system that performs image processing on the meeting visual data to detect a video intrusion event indicative of an unintended object being captured in the meeting visual data and generating a video intrusion event identifier indicative of the detected video intrusion event;
- a privacy protection action identifier that identifies a privacy protection action based on the video intrusion event identifier;
- and
- a privacy protection action controller that automatically implements a computer system configuration to perform the identified privacy protection action.
2 more elements
A computer implemented method, comprising:
- receiving, at a privacy protection system, meeting audio data indicative of an audible representation of a current meeting that a user is attending using a user device;
- performing audio processing on the meeting audio data to detect an audio intrusion event indicative of an unintended audible noise being captured in the meeting audio data;
- generating an audio intrusion event identifier indicative of the detected audio intrusion event;
- identifying a privacy protection action based on the audio intrusion event identifier;
- and
- automatically implementing a computer system configuration to perform the identified privacy protection action.
3 more elements
A computer implemented method, comprising:
- receiving, at a privacy protection system, audio visual meeting data indicative of a current meeting that a user is attending using a user device;
- obtaining baseline audio visual meeting data indicative of an environment of the user during the current meeting;
- comparing the audio visual meeting data indicative of the current meeting to the baseline audio visual meeting data to obtain a comparison result;
- detecting an intrusion event, indicative of unintended audio or visual information being captured in the meeting data, based the comparison result;
- generating an intrusion event identifier indicative of the detected intrusion event;
- identifying a privacy protection action based on the intrusion event identifier;
- and
- automatically implementing a computer system implementation to perform the identified privacy protection action.
