Participating in an online meeting while driving

摘要

A technique enables a user to participate in an online meeting. The technique involves receiving, by processing circuitry of a vehicle, a join instruction to join the online meeting. The technique further involves performing, by the processing circuitry of the vehicle, a communications exchange with a remote online meeting server in response to the join instruction, the communications exchange establishing an online meeting session with the remote online meeting server to join the processing circuitry of the vehicle to the online meeting. The technique further involves outputting, after the online meeting session is established and by the processing circuitry of the vehicle, video of the online meeting on a display screen which is integrated with the vehicle. Along these lines, the display screen can output a static image while the vehicle is moving and moving video while the vehicle is not moving (e.g., parked).

主权项

1. A method of participating in an online meeting, comprising:
receiving, by processing circuitry of a vehicle, a join instruction to join the online meeting; performing, by the processing circuitry of the vehicle, a communications exchange with a remote online meeting server in response to the join instruction, the communications exchange establishing an online meeting session with the remote online meeting server to join the processing circuitry of the vehicle to the online meeting; and after the online meeting session is established, outputting, by the processing circuitry of the vehicle, video of the online meeting on a display screen which is integrated with the vehicle; wherein outputting the video of the online meeting on the display screen includes:
receiving a motion signal indicating whether the vehicle is in motion,displaying first video of the online meeting on the display screen when the motion signal indicates that the vehicle is in motion, anddisplaying second video of the online meeting on the display screen when the motion signal indicates that the vehicle is not in motion, the second video being different than the first video.
