| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a new method and system for use of a teleconference system, and more specifically a new method and system for using a teleconference system and multiple bridges where participants of a conference on a bridge can be segregated into two or more conference bridges and giving one bridge the ability to monitor and/or observe the primary conference in a first bridge as they participate in the secondary conference using a modular overlay. The overlay allows participants of the secondary conference to 'observe' the primary conference by means of sending to the secondary conference an attenuated version of the primary conference or a non-attenuated version capable of attenuation based on the participation level of the participants of the secondary conference. The current invention recreates the effect of using a one way mirror between two adjacent rooms to permit participants in the second room to monitor and keep track of the first room while being able to communicate in private. |
