Abstract
Techniques are provided for establishing a videoconference session between participants at different endpoints, where each endpoint includes at least one computing device and one or more displays. A plurality of video streams is received at an endpoint, and each video stream is classified as at least one of a people view and a data view. The classified views are analyzed to determine one or more regions of interest for each of the classified views, where at least one region of interest has a size smaller than a size of the classified view. Synthesized views of at least some of the video streams are generated, wherein the synthesized views include at least one view including a region of interest, and views including the synthesized views are rendered at one or more displays of an endpoint device.
