Abstract
A display control system for a videoconference terminal capable of displaying proper images of participants. A video camera captures wide-angle source pictures including the images of participants. The source pictures are sent to a participant position detector and image clipping unit. The participant position detector detects a participant position by examining the source pictures. Depending on the on-screen movement observed in the participant position detected by the participant position detector, the image clipping unit determines an appropriate clipping window. It clips the desired image out of the source pictures as defined by the clipping window. A screen adjustment unit adjusts the image size so that it will fit to the actual screen size.
