International Classification:

US Classification:
348 1408, 235377, 348 1403, 348 1409, 370352, 37920201, 455446, 707746, 707812, 709205, 709219, 714 471, 715239, 715743, 715753, 715781, 718104
Abstract:
In one implementation, a conference bridge or a multipoint conference unit (MCU) receives media streams from the endpoints in the conference. The media stream may contain at least one of audio, video, file sharing, or collaboration data. The MCU measures a characteristic in each of a plurality of media streams and calculates statistics based on the individual participation levels of the endpoints. A dynamic participation indicator displayed at the endpoints shows the relative participation levels of the endpoints. For example, the dynamic participation indicator may show the names of the users in a font that changes size and/or location as the participation level changes. In another example, the dynamic participation indicator may show respective videos of the endpoints in a format and/or size that changes as the participation level changes.

Abstract:
A method, a communication device and computer readable storage media facilitate engaging in communication session between a first communication device and another, i. e. , a second communication device. One or more video frames received from the second communication device for display on the first communication device are captured. At least one video frame from the communication session is selected, at the first communication device, for use as a contact identifier associated with a contact person at the second communication device. The selected video frame for use as the contact identifier of the contact person is stored in a memory of the first communication device.
