| If one is to video record a table meeting in a medium sized room and the video needs to always capture the person who is speaking. It is hard to do that without a cameraman. The product will provide a solution to this problem without hiring a cameraman. Camera will be placed on a 360 degree rotational base which can be placed at the center of the table. The base is surrounded by electret microphones. Where the sound is coming from can be detected by analyzing the loudness at each microphone. And a micro-controller will control a motor to rotate the camera to face itself to the speaker. It will have two cameras working together,, and the two cameras can be rotating to different angles and automatically generate splitscreen if two people are talking (e.g. one asking question & one answering). Otherwise only one camera will be recording. |
