摘要： Enterprise communication display systems enable life-like images for videoconferencing and entertainment productions. Life-like images appear in a 3D environment where imaged people are visible through specially configured see-through displays. Imaged people can be viewed amongst a reflected foreground. Methods for enterprise-wide deployments for corporate, healthcare, education, theater which includes cinema and government communications, including hotel properties and a property management system are shown. Direct projection see-through screen configurations are created that eliminate unwanted secondary images in the room, conceal exposed projector lenses, reduce lens flare, makes practical multi-use room installations, images conferees among a room environment, enables touch screen interactivity, and utilizes extreme and other types of short throw projectors to reduce cost and bulk of common throw projectors. Of these transparent screens inventive configurations of substantially invisible mesh screens for both front and rear projection are described.

摘要： The present invention enables eye contact between conferees during a teleconference using a terminal equipped with a beam-splitter. The camera is positioned behind the viewing side of the beam-splitter to capture the conferee's image through the beam-splitter. The reflection of the video display appears to be positioned in a room environment with common room objects, serving to associate the position of the reflection in the room environment. The transparent quality of the beamsplitter is used not only for capturing eye contact images from one direction, but also revealing the room environment by enabling the conferee to see-through the beamsplitter. The invention can be configured to create the appearance that a life-size teleconference image of a remote conferee appears in the same room as the local conferee viewing the reflection and appears to be sitting on the other side of the desk

摘要： An improved desktop projection display system which effectively utilizes desk top space by producing an image that appears to be at the rear edge of the desk. The display is compact because it uses a transparent-reflective panel (i.e., beamsplitter) to reflect a screen image through the same space occupied by the projection beam. This is achieved by projecting through a transparent-reflective panel, angled at approximately 45 degrees to the projection beam, onto a front projection screen located on the desk surface. An image formed on the front projection screen is then reflected by the transparent-reflective panel creating the appearance to the observer that the reflected front projection screen is positioned toward the rear of the desk surface. This invention greatly improves desktop display ergonomics for large display viewing by providing a sufficient distance between the observer seated at a desk and the display image. It is also possible to position a camera behind the transparent-reflective panel at the apparent position of the reflected screen image thus ensuring teleconferencing eye contact. The present invention, though ideal for desk top use, may also be incorporated into devices such as laptop computers or configured in kiosks or used in a manner similar to big screen projection televisions.
摘要翻译：一种改进的桌面投影显示系统，其通过产生似乎在桌子的后边缘处的图像来有效地利用桌面空间。显示器是紧凑的，因为它使用透明反射面板（即分束器）来反射屏幕图像通过投影光束占据的相同空间。这是通过将透明反射板投影到位于桌面上的前投影屏幕上的投影光束的大致45度的角度来实现的。形成在前投影屏幕上的图像然后被透明反射板反射，从而产生观察者的外观，即反射的前投影屏幕朝向桌面的后方定位。本发明通过在坐在桌子上的观察者和显示图像之间提供足够的距离来极大地改善用于大型显示器观看的桌面显示人体工程学。也可以在反射屏幕图像的明显位置将相机放置在透明反射板后面，从而确保电话会议的眼睛接触。尽管理想的桌面使用本发明也可以并入诸如膝上型计算机的设备中或者被配置在报亭中，或以类似于大屏幕投影电视机的方式使用。

摘要： A telepresence communication system for group meeting rooms and personal home and office systems provides improved human factor experience through substantially life size images with eye level camera placement. The system provides switched presence interfaces so that conferees can select when to transmit their images during a conference and optionally provides individual microphones for each of conferee. Switched presence between presets of conferees are viewed on multipoint windows overlaying life-size images upon eye contact camera regions and eliminate seeing camera image movement during pan, tilt and zoom operations. An ambient light rejecting filter system enables an eye level camera to be hidden behind a projection screen and provides bright, high contrast images under normal meeting room and office environments. A telepresence organizational enablement system brings all the features of a corporate office complex and its social and organizational benefits, into a virtual community eliminating the need to centralize employees.

摘要： The present invention enables eye contact between conferees during a teleconference using a terminal equipped with a beamsplitter for reflecting an image of a video display so that only the reflection and not a direct view of the display is seen by the conferee. The camera is positioned behind the viewing side of the beamsplitter to capture the conferee's image through the beamsplitter. The direct view of the display is blocked by an image blocking film applied between the beamsplitter and the display. Blocking the direct view of the video display greatly improves teleconferencing by eliminating the distraction of simultaneously viewing both the video display and the reflection of the display. The present invention also substantially improves available desktop space, functional options by providing a direct view and a reflected view of the display, and portability. Also, the present invention is an integrated device operating as a fully functional personal computer with a module bay which receives a videoconferencing module to enable a videoconference. The integrated terminal is also uniquely configured for both a single user mode and a group videoconferencing mode.
