Abstract
Interactions with objects depicted within video streams displayed during a video conference are detected to cause information associated with the interacted objects to be presented. During a video conference, multiple video layers of a video stream obtained from a first participant device connected to the video conference are identified. An interaction with an object within one of those multiple video layers is detected during the video conference, in which the interaction is from a second participant device connected to the video conference. Based on the interaction, information associated with the object is presented during the video conference within a graphical user interface associated with the video conference. The video stream may, for example, initially include a background layer, a foreground layer, and an overlay layer. Interactive video layers corresponding to each of those initial layers may be introduced to receive interactions with objects depicted therein.
