Digital Delegate for Teleconference Participation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing teleconferencing technologies do not effectively allow meeting invitees to attend multiple meetings simultaneously, leading to inefficient information gathering and reduced contribution to discussions in missed meetings.
Innovation Solution
A digital delegate system that allows a digital representation of a meeting invitee to attend teleconferences on behalf of the invitee, using artificial intelligence to analyze meeting content and respond to defined points of interest.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a meeting invitee attends multiple teleconferences simultaneously, then information gathering efficiency is improved, but the ability to contribute to discussions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a digital delegate that is a digital copy or representation of the meeting invitee. This digital delegate can attend multiple teleconferences simultaneously, record information, and later contribute to discussions by generating questions and comments based on the recorded content, thus resolving the contradiction between attending multiple meetings and contributing to discussions.
Solution Approach 2:
The digital delegate acts as an intermediary between the meeting invitee and the teleconferences. It records information during meetings and later generates contributions on behalf of the invitee, allowing the invitee to effectively participate in multiple meetings without being physically present in all of them.
2Loss of time
If a meeting invitee is absent from a teleconference, then time management is improved, but productivity is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The digital delegate serves as a digital copy of the meeting invitee that can attend teleconferences in the invitee's place. It records all meeting content and later generates questions and comments, allowing the invitee to manage time effectively while maintaining productivity through the digital delegate's post-meeting contributions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by having the digital delegate attend and record teleconferences in advance of when the invitee needs the information. The delegate then processes the recorded content and generates contributions, ensuring productivity is maintained without requiring the invitee's real-time presence.
3Measurement precision
If teleconference monitoring information is analyzed to generate responses, then accuracy of representation is improved, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The digital delegate continuously monitors and records teleconference information in real-time during the meeting. This continuous recording allows for accurate analysis later without requiring intensive processing during the meeting itself, balancing accuracy of representation with efficient use of time.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs the monitoring and initial analysis of teleconference information as a preliminary action during and immediately after the meeting. By having the digital delegate record and preliminarily process the information while the meeting is occurring or just after, the system prepares accurate responses without creating excessive delays in the invitee's workflow.

AI summary
One or more systems, devices, computer program products and/or computer-implemented methods of use provided herein relate to teleconferencing and, more specifically, to the gathering and conveying of information over a teleconference by a digital delegate. A computer-implemented system can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The computer-implemented system can further comprise a processor that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components can comprise a digital delegate component that accesses a teleconference via a computer application as a teleconference participant and an analysis component that analyzes teleconference monitoring information of the teleconference to determine responses to one or more defined points of interest determined by a meeting invitee.
