One embodiment provides a method, the method including: obtaining, at a communication mapping system, a recorded communication occurring between at least two participants; tracking, using the communication mapping system, when a participant of the at least two participants is communicating; identifying, using the communication mapping system and while the participant is communicating, at least one topic of the recorded communication, wherein the identifying comprises tracking a time within the communication corresponding to the at least one topic; and producing, from the tracking and the at least one topic, a map for the recorded communication, wherein the map identifies topics of the recorded communication, times within the recorded communication corresponding to the topics, and times within the recorded communication corresponding to a participant communicating. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Generation of a map for recorded communications

One embodiment provides a method, the method including: attending, over a communication medium, a virtual meeting comprising a presenter and at least one participant, each accessing the virtual meeting by use of an information handling device comprising a display; determining, based upon the information handling device of the at least one participant, a size of a share window on the display of the presenter's information handling device; and sharing, based upon the determined size of the share window, information present within the share window on the display of the presenter's information handling device to the display of the at least one participant's information handling device. Other aspects are claimed and described.

Dynamic sizing of a share window

One embodiment provides a method, the method including: detecting, during a meeting comprising at least one participant remote to a user identified as a presenter and utilizing a screenshare alternative system, visual data shared from an information handling device of the presenter to an information handling device of the at least one participant; identifying, utilizing the screenshare alternative system, an issue displaying the visual data on the information handling device of the at least one participant; and providing, utilizing the screenshare alternative system, an alternative provision of the visual data to the at least one participant. Other aspects are claimed and described.

Alternative screenshare provision

In one aspect, an apparatus may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive a transcription of audio from a first client device. The audio may be detected at the first client device and may be streamed from the first client device as part of a video conference. The instructions may also be executable to determine that a second client device is not presenting a first part of the audio. Based on the determination, the instructions may be executable to send a first part of the transcription to the second client device and/or to present the first part the transcription at the second client device.

Presentation of part of transcript based on detection of device not presenting corresponding audio

One embodiment provides a method, the method including: detecting, during a meeting comprising at least one participant remote to a user identified as a presenter, communication data and visual data provided by the user to the at least one participant; determining, utilizing a meeting discrepancy system, that content of the visual data does not match content of the communication data; and providing, to the user and utilizing a meeting discrepancy system, a notification indicating the content of the visual data does not match the content of the communication data. Other aspects are claimed and described.

Identification of screen discrepancy during meeting

For detecting and resolving bad audio during conferencing, methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed. One apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The processor detects bad audio for a conference call, the conference call involving a plurality of participants. The processor switches a first input stream to an analysis mode, where the bad audio corresponds to a first one of a plurality of input streams, the first input stream associated with a first participant. The processor sends a conference output channel to the first participant while in the analysis mode and concurrently analyzes the first input stream using a plurality of audio tools while in the analysis mode. The processor returns the first input stream to a conferencing mode in response to resolving the bad audio.

Resolving bad audio during conference call

Methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for determining location of audio transmission problems between components connected across a network. A method includes receiving audio and a first transcription of the audio from a source device, generating a second transcription of the received audio. The method also includes providing an indication of an audio problem responsive to the first transcription not matching the second transcription and sending the audio and the second transcription to an audio mixing device, a recording device, or a participant device responsive to the first transcription matching the second transcription.

Methods, systems, and program products for identifying location of problems of delivered audio

An eye tracking system includes an imaging device, a memory, and a controller. The imaging device is configured to be mounted on a wearable device. The wearable device includes at least a first lens that is light transmissive and is positioned in front of at least a first eye of a user that is wearing the wearable device. The imaging device has a field of view that captures an inner surface of the first lens and a reflection of the first eye on the inner surface. The memory is configured to store program instructions. The controller is operably connected to the memory and the imaging device. The program instructions are executable by the controller to analyze image data generated by the imaging device and to detect a position of a pupil of the first eye in the reflection based on the analysis of the image data.

Eye tracking system and method

One embodiment provides a method, the method including: receiving, at a website anticipation system, an indication of a plurality of user devices to be in operative communication with a central device during a predetermined time period; detecting, using the website anticipation system, at least one website to be accessed by the plurality of user devices during the predetermined time period, wherein the at least one website is to be requested by the central device; and prior to the central device requesting the plurality of user devices access the website, preloading, using the website anticipation system, at least a portion of the website on a least a subset of the plurality of user devices.

Anticipatory loading of websites on user devices

Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for detecting and correcting audio echo. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to detect audio that is received through an audio channel of a first user during a conference call being echoed through an audio channel of a second user in the conference call. The code is executable by the processor to identify the second user associated with the audio channel that is echoing the audio of the first user. The code is executable by the processor to perform a corrective action associated with the second user to prevent audio that is received from the first user from being echoed through the audio channel of the second user.
