Abstract

Systems and methods for conducting a virtual meeting cause a display screen to present meeting participants with a depiction of a virtual meeting room populated with avatars representing the participants. Audio links between the participants allow some or all of the participants to hear what is being said by each of the other participants. Each participant can cause his respective avatar to make gestures that provide non-verbal communications to the other participants. In addition, one or more participants may be able to cause text, images, videos or other presentation materials to be displayed to the other participants on a virtual display screen present in the virtual conference room. Likewise, participants may be able to draw or write on a virtual whiteboard present in the virtual conference room. Participants may also be able to share or send notes to each other, or conduct private instant messaging sessions, audio sessions or video sessions with one or more of the other participants.
