Abstract: Dynamically adapting a continuous presence (CP) layout in a videoconference enhances a videoconferencing experience by providing optimum visibility to regions of interest within the CP layout and ignoring regions of no interest. Based on the CP layout, a CP video image can be built, in which a conferee at a receiving endpoint can observe, simultaneously, several other participants' sites in the conference. For example, more screen space within the CP layout is devoted to presenting the participants in the conference and little or no screen space is used to present an empty seat, an empty room, or an unused portion of a room. Aspect ratios of segments of the CP layout (e.g., landscape vs. portrait) can be adjusted to optimally present the regions of interest. The CP layout can be adjusted as regions of interest change depending on the dynamics of the video conference.

Abstract translation: 在视频会议中动态适应连续存在（CP）布局，通过为CP布局中的感兴趣区域提供最佳可见性，并忽略不感兴趣的区域，增强了视频会议体验。 基于CP布局，可以构建CP视频图像，其中接收端点的与会者可以同时观察会议中的其他几个参与者的站点。 例如，CP布局中的更多屏幕空间专用于呈现会议中的参与者，并且很少或不使用屏幕空间来呈现空座位，空房间或房间的未使用部分。 CP布局的段的纵横比（例如，横向与纵向）可以被调整以最佳地呈现感兴趣的区域。 根据视频会议的动态，CP布局可以根据感兴趣的区域进行调整。

Abstract: Content presented in association with a transmitting endpoint is obtained by the transmitting endpoint and transmitted to a receiving endpoint of a videoconference, along with associated information regarding interaction of a presenter with the content at the transmitting side. The receiving endpoint presents the presented content obtained from the transmitting endpoint similar to the presentation format at the transmitting side. Where the original presentation format is not suitable for transmission, a video image of the content in the original presentation format may be transmitted. An intermediate control unit, such as a multipoint control unit, may relay content and associated information between transmitting and receiving endpoints.
