Abstract:
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are configured for determining that a first peer involved in a video conference is a primary peer; determining that a second peer involved in the video conference is a secondary peer in response to non-satisfaction by the second peer of a threshold associated with a selected number of objects in the second peer; determining a viewing peer involved in the video conference, wherein the primary peer, the secondary peer, and the viewing peer are different; creating a modified video stream of the second peer in response to the determining that the second peer is the secondary peer based on the non-satisfaction by the second peer of the threshold associated with the selected number of objects in the second peer; detecting a static area and a dynamic area in a video stream of the first peer; superimposing the modified video stream of the second peer onto the static area in the video stream of the first peer; and providing a composite video including the video stream of the first peer, the modified video stream of the second peer, and a video stream of the viewing peer for presentation to the viewing peer.
