Abstract

Video conferencing is performed using near-end and far-end devices at near-end and far-end sites, respectively. Each device has a display surface and a video camera. The view of the far-end scene displayed by the near-end device is selected as a function of the position of the near-end user relative to the near-end device. As the near-end user moves toward the left, the view pans toward the right of the far-end scene. As the near-end user moves toward the right, the view pans toward the left of the far-end scene.
