Abstract
A conferencing system terminal device includes an image capture device capturing images of a subject during a videoconference occurring across a network and a communication device transmitting the images to at least one remote electronic device engaged in the videoconference. The conferencing system terminal device includes one or more sensors determining that one or more portions of the subject are obscured in the images and one or more processors. The one or more processors apply obscured subject compensation content to the images at locations where the one or more portions of the subject are obscured, during the videoconference, and prior to the communication device transmitting the images to the at least one remote electronic device engaged in the videoconference.
