LOCATION-AWARE CONFERENCING WITH GRAPHICAL INTERFACE FOR COMMUNICATING INFORMATION

摘要

A method for providing a virtual conference includes obtaining participant location information associated with participant identifiers, establishing an audio conference using the participant identifiers, receiving information and communicating the information anonymously to one or more displays, during the audio conference. A distributed system includes client devices associated with respective displays and a conferencing system via a network. A first interface obtains location information associated with respective participant identifiers. An audio conference application establishes an audio conference using the participant identifiers. A second interface receives information and communicates the information anonymously to one or more displays, during the audio conference.
