Abstract
A system and method of determining the identity of a caller in a local room from a remote room includes a local image capture device for capturing a plurality of images of a caller in the local room in real time. A remote codec receives the plurality of images of the caller. A remote viewscreen displays the plurality of images of the caller in real time in the remote room. A remote display monitor displays the plurality of images in real time after two-way communication is established between the local room and the remote room. The method includes establishing one-way communication between the local room and the remote room, transmitting the plurality of images of the caller to the remote room, displaying the plurality of images of the caller in real time on the remote viewscreen, and establishing two-way communication between the local room and the remote room.
