Instant Virtual Meeting Recording Customization for Participant Privacy
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Participants in virtual meetings have limited control over their privacy and personal information during recorded meetings, leading to diminished engagement and a less meaningful experience, as they must either consent to being recorded or leave the meeting.
Innovation Solution
A system that allows participants to control the content of virtual meeting recordings through instant processing, enabling segmentation, editing, and customization based on recipient groups, allowing them to remove or modify content such as private discussions, jokes, or irrelevant material.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If participants consent to being recorded in virtual meetings, then recording functionality is achieved, but privacy control and engagement are diminished
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the virtual meeting recording into multiple versions tailored for different recipient groups. Each participant can specify which segments of the recording they want to share with different audiences, thereby maintaining privacy control while fully engaging in the meeting without having to leave or refuse recording.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically generates customized recordings based on real-time participant preferences and recipient specifications. Participants can adjust their privacy settings for different groups, and the system adapts by creating customized video versions, thus maintaining both privacy control and full engagement.
2Adaptability or versatility
If customized recordings are generated for different recipient groups, then privacy control is enhanced, but processing time and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-processing the meeting recording during or immediately after the meeting concludes. By initiating the customization process before distribution is needed, the system reduces the perceived processing time for users while maintaining the ability to generate multiple customized versions efficiently.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates copies of the meeting recording tailored for different recipient groups. Instead of generating entirely new recordings from scratch, it efficiently copies and modifies the base recording according to participant preferences, significantly reducing processing time while maintaining adaptability.
3Loss of information
If full meeting recordings are shared with all participants, then completeness of information is maintained, but personal information privacy is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by allowing different privacy settings for different segments of the recording and for different recipient groups. Each participant's personal information is protected in recordings distributed to groups where they didn't consent, while maintaining information completeness for groups where they did consent.
Solution Approach 2:
The system extracts and removes personal information or sensitive segments from recordings before distributing them to recipient groups where participants didn't consent. This extraction process maintains the completeness of information for appropriate groups while eliminating privacy exposure risks for inappropriate distributions.

AI summary
Systems and methods for providing instant processing of virtual meeting recordings are provided. A system may include a non-transitory computer-readable medium; a communications interface; and a processor configured to execute processor-executable instructions stored in non-transitory computer-readable medium to: establish a virtual meeting having a plurality of participants, each participant of the plurality of participants exchanging audio or video streams via the virtual meeting; record, responsive to an indication from one of the plurality of participants, the audio or video streams from the plurality of participants; generate a recording of one or more audio or video tracks corresponding to the audio or video streams exchanged during the virtual meeting; receive, from a first client device, a request to customize the recording, the request comprising an identification of customizable content and a modification action; generate a customized recording based on applying the modification action to the identified customizable content.
