Intelligent management of content related to objects displayed within communication sessions

Abstract:

The techniques disclosed herein improve the efficiency of a system by providing intelligent management of content that is associated with objects displayed within communication sessions. The participants can generate a content object associated with a 3D object. The content object may be in the form of 3D virtual object such as an arrow pointing to the table, a text box of an annotation, etc. The content object may also include functional features that collect and display information voting agent. The system can generate a data structure that associates the object with the content object. The data structure enables a system to maintain an association between the object and the content object when various operations are applied to either object. Thus, if a remote computer sends a request for the content object, the associated object is delivered with the content object.
