An ad hoc conferencing system and methods are provided. Information is stored to associate a particular meeting link with an endpoint device. A first request to initiate a communication session is received from the endpoint device, wherein the first request is generated by a local participant interacting with the endpoint device. A second request to join the communication session is received from a remote device, wherein the second request is transmitted in response to a remote participant inputting, on the remote device, the particular meeting link. The communication session is established between the endpoint device and the remote device based on receiving the first request and receiving the second request.

Device-based ad hoc conferencing

A method for transferring a teleconference between a mobile device and a conference center. The method includes identifying, by a mobile device, a candidate meeting center system for transfer of a teleconference conducted on the mobile device, and in response to identifying the candidate meeting center system, generating a user interface (UI) to provide one or more user selectable icons, the user selectable icons configured to facilitate transfer of the teleconference from the mobile device to the candidate meeting center system.

User interface for proximity based teleconference transfer

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving at a network device, video and activity data for a video conference, automatically processing the video at the network device based on the activity data, and transmitting edited video from the network device. Processing comprises identifying active locations in the video and editing the video to display each of the active locations before a start of activity at the location and switch between the active locations. An apparatus and logic are also disclosed herein.

Automated video editing based on activity in video conference

In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving an image stream captured by an image capture device associated with one of a plurality of video conferencing endpoints of a video conferencing system; receiving a request to detect objects in the received image stream; upon detecting one or more objects, displaying a first framing preview of the received image stream, wherein the first framing preview is framed to include the detected one or more objects; upon detecting a change in the detected one or more objects, displaying at least one second framing preview of the received image stream, wherein the at least one second framing preview is framed to include the detected change in the detected one or more objects; and receiving an input, the input selecting a relevant framing preview to use, wherein the relevant framing preview is one of the displayed first and at least one second framing previews.
