Abstract

See full text

An A/V conference device located in each of a plurality of A/V conference call spaces operates to receive, process and transmit audio and video information over a network to a far-end location during a conference call, and an A/V conference service operates in the network to setup, support, and terminate conference calls between the A/V conference devices. The A/V conference call device has conference call control functionality that detects the presence of one or more individuals in the conference call space, and which prompts the individuals for call setup information that is sent to the A/V conference service operating in the network. The individual can move to be present in any one of a plurality of available conference spaces and initiate a conference call without the need to provide scheduling information to the A/V conference service prior to or after entering the space.
