Augmented Presentation System for 3D Remote Collaboration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information handling systems lack the capability to effectively coordinate and display multiple participants' interactions with graphical information across different geographic locations, failing to provide a seamless virtual meeting experience where remote observers can participate as if they were in the same room.
Innovation Solution
An augmented presentation management system that uses three-dimensional cameras, augmented presentation display devices, and software modules to capture and merge images of presenters and graphical information, creating a virtual three-dimensional environment where remote participants can interact and manipulate presentation elements in real-time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional video conferencing systems are used, then remote participants can be connected, but the ability to coordinate and display multiple participants' interactions with graphical information across different geographic locations is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges multiple virtual three-dimensional environments into a single merged virtual environment, combining presenters' environments and observer's environment into one cohesive space where all participants can interact with graphical information simultaneously. This resolving the contradiction by integrating separate systems into a unified platform that coordinates multiple participants' interactions.
Solution Approach 2:
The server acts as an intermediary that receives three-dimensional images from multiple presenters, processes and merges them into a unified virtual environment, and distributes it to observers. This intermediary architecture enables coordination of multiple participants without requiring direct peer-to-peer complexity between all systems.
2Ease of operation
If virtual three-dimensional environments are created for each participant, then remote observers can participate as if in the same room, but the complexity of merging and synchronizing these environments increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple individual virtual three-dimensional environments are merged into a single shared environment. The server combines presenters' virtual spaces and the observer's virtual space into one unified environment, allowing seamless interaction without requiring each participant to manage separate complex systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates virtual copies of presenters and their graphical information in the merged environment. Three-dimensional images and graphical elements are replicated and placed into the shared virtual space, enabling observers to interact with accurate representations of remote participants and their content.
3Productivity
If real-time manipulation of graphical information is enabled across remote locations, then collaboration is enhanced, but the synchronization requirements and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements real-time feedback loops where the server continuously receives updates from presenters about graphical information changes, processes these changes in the merged virtual environment, and immediately distributes updated three-dimensional images to all observers. This feedback mechanism ensures synchronization without significant delays.
Solution Approach 2:
The virtual meeting system maintains continuous operation of the merged environment, with the server constantly processing and distributing updated three-dimensional images and graphical information. This continuous action ensures that all participants remain synchronized without interruption or delay in collaboration.

AI summary
An information handling system operating an augmented presentation management system may include a processor receiving a first three-dimensional image of a first presenter including data of a presenter location relative to a presenter digital display device captured via a three-dimensional camera, the processor receiving data describing the position and display characteristics of a virtual, shared presentation graphical display element similar to a presentation graphical display element displayed on a presenter screen, and the processor executing code instructions of the augmented presentation management system to instruct a digital display device to display the first three-dimensional image of the first presenter interacting with a displayed virtual, shared presentation graphical display element, wherein the augmented presentation management system instructs the digital display device to display the virtual, shared presentation graphical display element such that both the first three-dimensional image of the first presenter and the virtual shared presentation graphical display element on the digital display device are both viewable in three dimensional perspective correlating to the location of the first presenter to the presenter digital display device.
