Advanced Videoconference Technologies for Hybrid Communications

Abstract

This paper presents an innovative system for intelligent PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera control integrated into a videoconferencing platform. The system leverages advanced face tracking algorithms, real-time communication protocols, and dynamic parameter adaptation to deliver a highly responsive and interactive solution. In addition to automated camera adjustment based on face detection, the system provides remote control capabilities that enable participants to steer the camera upon user consent. This modular approach supports hybrid communication environments and introduces virtual teleportation functionalities, allowing remote users to dynamically explore meeting spaces as if they were physically present.
