<p>In one embodiment, a video-conferencing terminal (100) has a monitor (102); a non-visible-light, e.g., IR, camera (106) configured to generate an eye-contact non-visible-light, e.g., IR, image of a video-conference participant (112); one or more visible-light cameras (108), each configured to generate a non-eye-contact visible-light image of the participant; and a mirror (104) positioned in front of the monitor and configured to transmit visible light from the monitor towards the participant and reflect non-visible light from the participant towards the non-visible-light camera. The terminal generates an eye-contact visible-light image from the eye-contact non-visible-light image and the one or more non-eye-contact visible-light images and transmits the eye-contact visible-light image to a remotely located video-conferencing terminal. The eye-contact visible-light image is generated using pattern matching and color mapping processing that may be less complex than the stereoscopic analysis and image rotation processing of the prior art.</p> |
