Abstract

Web-based collaboration using the wireless devices that have multimedia playback capabilities is a viable alternative to traditional face-to-face meetings. E-meetings are popular in businesses because of their cost savings. To provide quick and effective engagement to the meeting activity, the remote user should be able to perceive whole events in the meeting room and have the same possibilities like participants inside. The technological framework of the developed intelligent meeting room implements multichannel audio-visual system for participant activity detection and automatically composes actual multimedia content for remote mobile user. The developed web-based application for remote user interaction with equipment of the intelligent meeting room and organization of E-meetings were tested with Nokia mobile phones.
