Web Conference Participant Subgroup Visualization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In web-based conferences, it is challenging for participants to understand each other's roles, organizations, or purposes due to the large number of individuals involved, leading to an information barrier and reduced collaboration efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A system that analyzes participant data to generate and visualize subgroups based on roles, organizations, or projects, allowing participants to be mapped into subgroups and displayed within the conference interface, facilitating better communication and collaboration.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If web conferencing software displays all participants simultaneously, then all participants can be seen, but it becomes difficult to understand each user's role, organization, or purpose
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the large group of participants into multiple subgroups based on their roles, organizations, or purposes. Each subgroup is displayed separately with visual indicators, allowing participants to understand the structure and relationships within the conference while still seeing all participants across the different subgroups.
2Productivity
If participant data is collected and analyzed to create subgroups, then collaboration efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically collects participant data from available sources, analyzes it using algorithms, and creates subgroups without requiring manual intervention. The system self-manages the entire process from data collection to subgroup visualization, reducing the complexity burden on users while maintaining high collaboration efficiency.

AI summary
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to generating and visualizing subgroups of participants within web-based conferences. Participant data for each of a plurality of participants attending a web-based conference can be obtained. The participant data can be analyzed for each of the plurality of participants. Each of the participants can be mapped to a subgroup of two or more subgroups based on the analysis. The two or more subgroups can then be visualized within the web-based conference to the participants.
