Abstract
One example method includes receiving, by a computing device, a detection signal wherein the detection signal corresponds to an individual entering a room hosted by a video conference provider; transmitting, by the computing device, a control signal to one or more peripheral devices wherein the control signals cause the one or more peripherals to enter an active state; determining, by the computing device, that the individual is associated with a virtual space; and joining, by the computing device, the virtual space hosted by the video conference provider.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- in response to determining that a received detection signal indicates an individual has entered a physical room:
- determining, by a computing device, that the individual is a member of a virtual space hosted by a video conference provider;
- and
- joining, by the computing device, the virtual space based on determining that the individual is a member of the virtual space.
A system comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium;
- and
- one or more processors communicatively coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the one or more processors configured to execute processor-executable instructions stored in the non-transitory computer-readable medium to:
- in response to a determination that a received detection signal indicates an individual has entered a physical room:
- determine that the individual is a member of a virtual space hosted by a video conference provider;
- and
- join the virtual space based on determining that the individual is a member of the virtual space.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising processor-executable instructions configured to cause one or more processors to:
- in response to a determination that a received detection signal indicates an individual has entered a physical room:
- determine that the individual is a member of a virtual space hosted by a video conference provider;
- and
- join the virtual space based on determining that the individual is a member of the virtual space.
