Abstract
Access to a networked communication session is provided to each of a plurality of user computing devices that are each configured with at least a camera, audio input subsystem, and audio output subsystem. During the networked communication session and after an audio input of a first user computing device detects a user speaking, the volume of the audio output subsystem of the first user computing device is adjusted. Further, the volume of the audio input subsystem of each of the other user computing devices is adjusted. Furthermore, after an audio input subsystem of a second user computing device detects a user of the second user computing device speaking, the volume of the audio output subsystem of the second user computing device is adjusted, as is the audio input subsystem of the other respective user computing devices and the audio output subsystem of the first user computing device.
