Hello everybody,

just for the sake of completeness, all of the (eight) IETF cameras are 
currently remotely controlled (by the Meetecho team members) from the control 
room located in the NOC. There's one single camera per room, with pan/tilt/zoom 
capabilities and a capture area of 180 degrees.

Cheers,

Simon

Perhaps we could let the remote folk pilot the camera...

Of course someone would need to write a protocol for that.

No doubt, but I we may gone too far by eliminating a camera operator
in
the room. We pay for it in quality.  I suggest spending a few hours
watching a recording session and see what you think.


fwiw - standing in a place where you can be seen by the camera so
that
the remote experience is better
without having to dedicate a camera operator to each room seems a
very
very small price to pay

I agree.

A proposal...
Could Meetecho please just zoom out.

Alternative proposal...
Make the pink box a guide for speakers who want to be in frame,
but
stop telling
us that we MUST stand in the box.

Also, we *really* need a repeater screen so that the person
speaking
can see
the slides without eyes in the back of his/her head. Speaking
coherently about
a slide that I cannot see is beyond my powers.

While we are talking about making remote participation better.

I watched a recorded working group session last night.  Currently
the
video is only of the slides and a small view of the speaker.
Unfortunately, when someone comes to the microphone, you don’t get to
see
them speak.  It would be much better if one could see them when they
talk.
This might require panning the main camera, or a second camera (and I
guess
a second “pink square”).
