Mobile Meeting Capture System
In some environments, for example when all people are remote, the meeting participants are already using a dedicated camera and a dedicated microphone for each person. Elsewhere, there may be several people sharing a room. In order to capture the audio and video of all the participants, a 360 capture system was developed using off-the-shelf technologies. In addition, the AMI project demonstration uses special algorithms that remove distortion caused by the parabolic mirror. It also is tightly integrated with real-time key word and event detection systems so that when using this system the speaker is visually identified and their words automatically captured and synchronized with the audio and video.
