Automated cinematic decisions based on descriptive models

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes, at a first time during an audio-video communication session: (1) determining that a first participant is located in an environment; (2) locating a first body region of the first participant; (3) generating a first color histogram of the first body region that represents a first distribution of colors of the first body region. The method also includes, at a second time: (1) determining that a second participant is located in the environment; (2) locating a second body region of the second participant; (3) generating a second color histogram of the second body region that represents a second distribution of one or more colors of the second body region. The method also includes determining that the first and second color histograms are substantially alike, and based on the determination, determining that the first participant is the same as the second participant.
