Abstract
Conferencing systems and methods configured to generate talker coordinates for directing a camera towards talker locations in an environment are disclosed, as well as talker tracking using multiple microphones and multiple cameras. One method includes determining, using a first microphone array and based on audio associated with a talker, a first talker location in a first coordinate system relative to the first microphone array; determining, using a second microphone array and based on the audio associated with the talker, a second talker location in a second coordinate system relative to the second microphone array; determining, based on the first talker location and the second talker location, an estimated talker location in a third coordinate system relative to a camera; and transmitting, to the camera, the estimated talker location in the third coordinate system to cause the camera to point the camera towards the estimated talker location.
