Abstract
The disclosure includes a system and method for switching between video views and data views. The system includes a controller, a view presentation module, a screen detection module and a view switching module. The controller receives data indicating a participant joined a multi-user communication session. The view presentation module presents a video stream on a mobile device associated with the participant. The screen detection module determines an occurrence of a detection trigger event. The controller receives a video frame image responsive to the occurrence of the detection trigger event. The screen detection module detects a data screen in the video frame image. The view switching module switches a view on the mobile device from video view to data view responsive to a natural gesture performed by the participant. The view presentation module presents a data stream associated with the data screen on the mobile device.
