ROBOTIC STAND AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THE STAND DURING VIDEOCONFERENCE

摘要

A robotic stand and systems and methods for controlling the stand during a videoconference are provided. The robotic stand may support a computing device during a videoconference and may be remotely controllable. The robotic stand may include a base, a first member, a second member, and a remotely-controllable rotary actuator. The first member may be attached to the base and swivelable relative to the base about a pan axis. The second member may be attached to the first member and may be tiltable relative to the first member about a tilt axis. The rotary actuator may be associated with the first member and operative to swivel the first member about the pan axis. In response to receiving a signal containing a motion command, the robotic stand may autonomously move the computing device about at least one of the pan axis or the tilt axis.
