A communication system and a computer-implemented method for providing a screenshare to one or more computing devices as a live share. In embodiments of the communication solution, a communication system and a computer-implemented method are configured to provide the screenshare to the one or more computing devices in the live share and, contemporaneously, monitor participant engagement at one or more of the computing devices during the live share. The communication system and computer-implemented method can be configured to provide engagement metrics in real-time based on the monitored participant engagement.

System and method for engagement management

In one embodiment of the present invention, a collaboration engine is configured to display shared digital assets consistently across displays. The collaboration engine receives container metadata generated based on a first location and first size of a digital asset within a first scaled workspace displayed on a first display. In response, the collaboration engine computes a second location and second size of the digital asset based on the container metadata and the size of a second scaled workspace. Finally, the collaboration engine configures the second device to display the digital asset within the second scaled workspace based on the second location and the second size. Notably, the container metadata correlates to the appearance of the digital asset on the first display, and the appearance of the digital asset on the second display correlates to the container metadata. Consequently, the appearance of the digital asset is consistent across the displays.

A computer-implemented method for managing a collaboration environment comprises receiving sensor information from one or more sensors disposed at a first collaboration venue indicating that a first user is present within the first collaboration venue, receiving sensor information from one or more sensors disposed at a second collaboration venue indicating that a second user is present within the second collaboration venue, identifying the first user based on the sensor information received from the first collaboration venue, identifying the second user based on the sensor information received from the second collaboration venue, and executing one or more actions with respect to a third collaboration venue based on at least one of the information from one or more sensors disposed at the first collaboration venue and the sensor information from one or more sensors disposed at the second collaboration venue.

User presence detection and display of private content at a remote collaboration venue

Various embodiments enable one or more appliances to participate in a shared workspace. The shared workspace can include a single appliance, multiple appliances, a single meeting room, multiple meeting rooms, or any combination thereof. The state of various meeting participants can be identified and one or more rules can be applied to the participants' state to provide an outcome. An 'outcome' can be thought of as an action that is to be performed responsive to the identified state. An asset interaction control feature can be selected based on the outcome. The asset interaction control feature controls, in some manner, a participant's interaction with one or more assets that are part of the shared workspace. The asset interaction control feature is then applied to at least one of the assets.

Application of asset control features to assets in a shared workspace

Various embodiments provide confidentiality-based file hosting by automatically directing assets in a shared workspace to appropriate storage locations. The storage location can be determined by comparing a security level that is associated with an asset to security levels of multiple possible storage locations. If a security level of the asset is changed in the shared workspace, the asset is automatically directed to an appropriate storage location based on the changed security level. This can include directing the asset to either a more secure or a less secure storage location.

One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a method for displaying content on a gesture-sensitive display surface. The method includes causing an interactive window asset to be displayed on the gesture-sensitive surface with at least one of an adjustable display height, an adjustable display width, and an adjustable display location on the gesture-sensitive display surface, wherein the interactive window asset includes at least one display output generated by a software application and is configured to receive one or more software application inputs via the gesture-sensitive display surface, receiving a mode change input via the gesture-sensitive display surface, and, in response to receiving the mode change input, causing the interactive window asset to be displayed on the gesture-sensitive display surface with a fixed display height, a fixed display width, and a fixed display location.

Locking interactive assets on large gesture-sensitive screen displays

An appliance device to display a workspace with an aspect ratio assigned to the workspace, regardless of the aspect ratio of a local display. The appliance device displays only a portion of the workspace in a viewport window at one time. The appliance device also displays a preview version of the entire workspace. The preview version comprises a user-interface tool which enables panning of the workspace in the viewport window. A presenter device makes a presentation while interacting with a workspace while viewer devices watch the presentation. A viewer device displays the workspace with the assigned aspect ratio and displays only portion of the workspace at one time. When the presenter device interacts with a location of the workspace, the presenter device operates in conjunction with a messaging infrastructure and the viewer devices to automatically cause each of the viewer devices to display the location of interaction in the workspace.

Content sharing with consistent aspect ratios

A client application coupled to a display generates a shared workspace that includes a content stream derived from a local user device a well as another content stream derived from a remote device. The client application is configured to detect when a user device is coupled locally, and to receive a content stream from that device. The client application determines when the other content stream is available, and then accesses that content stream via a streaming infrastructure. The client application then generates the shared workspace by rendering the two content streams to a display.

Data collection and assessment systems and processes for delivering a personalized experience to a user by gathering information from the user through a dynamic interface, performing detailed analyses based on the data collected, identifying the most probable user-specific outcome(s), and providing relevant feedback and analyses based on the most probable user-specific outcome identified. Embodiments of the described system and process also comprehensively track and store user data, thereby enabling the highest levels of user status supervision, client relations and efficiency.

Systems and processes for interactive data collection and assessment

A system and a method are disclosed for generating, storing, retrieving, and utilizing a search macro or shortcut link to a resource, such as a web site that provides access to an information database. The system may load a page into an application from the resource. The resource may have a Uniform Resource Identifier, and the page may have a search field that causes the application to generate a message when activated. The system may read the Uniform Resource Identifier insert a placeholder into the search field, and activate the search field, which causes the application to generate a message. The system may read the message and parse the message to isolate a search string containing the placeholder. The system may store the search string in a data structure, and may also store the Uniform Resource Identifier and associate it with the search string in the data structure. The system may further retrieve the search string, replace the placeholder with a search term, and generate a message as a function of the search string and the search term.
