    Abstract: A retractable camera device is described which removes a camera from view when not in use. The device may include a tube having two ends, an interior void and an outer surface, a ballscrew shaft positioned within the interior void of the tube, a camera mast assembly movably coupled to the tube and engaging the ballscrew shaft, a camera, having a 360° viewing angle, coupled to an end of the camera mast, and at least one ribbon cable folded in an accordion pattern and encircling the outer surface of the tube. The at least one ribbon cable has an end electrically connected to the camera. The ballscrew shaft engages the camera mast so as to move the camera mast in an upward and downward direction along a length thereof.

    Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) speaker identification system that illuminates at least one LED in the direction in which a camera having a 360 degree field of view is recording. The LED speaker identification system includes a base, a printed circuit board coupled to a surface of the base, and a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) coupled to a surface of the printed circuit board around a circumference thereof. The plurality of LEDs are electrically connected to a camera having a 360 degree viewing angle.

    Abstract: Systems for videoconferencing are designed for where people are seated around a video conferencing system. The systems include a camera so the far site can see the local participants and the systems include displays that show the far site. The displays are properly aligned with the cameras so that when people at the far site view the displayed images of the near site, it looks like they have eye contact with the near site. Obtaining the alignments of the camera and the displays to provide this apparent eye contact result requires meeting a series of different constraints relating to the various sizes and angles of the components and the locations of the participants.
