Abstract
Systems and methods for virtual meeting background freeze may include determining that a background of a video stream of a first client device of a participant of a virtual meeting is to be modified; identifying a first frame of the video stream as a candidate for the background of the video stream; and for each of one or more second frames of the video stream, generating a composite image by superimposing an image of a participant depicted in a respective second frame of the one or more second frames of the video stream on the background of the first frame using a location and a size of the image of the participant with respect to the respective second frame, and causing the composite image to be presented in a virtual meeting user interface (UI) on a second client device in place of the respective second frame.
