Abstract

To enhance presence of a remote conference.SOLUTION: A data processing apparatus 1 acquires first image data of one or more first participants participating in a remote conference at a first location, and the voice of a second participant participating in the remote conference at a second location and second image data corresponding to the second participant. The data processing apparatus 1 generates first composite image data by combining the first image data with at least a part of the second image data, and generates first processed voice data by processing the voice of the second participant on the basis of a position of at least a part of the second image data in the first composite image data. The data processing apparatus 1 transmits the first composite image data and first processed voice data to one or more electronic apparatuses used by one or more third participants participating in the remote conference at a third location for viewing the remote conference.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
