Vivek Dwivedi, Mansi Bhatanagar, Mulham Maineh, Gregor Rozinaj · 2023
This research article presents the utilization of an adaptive camera system for virtual teleport in videoconferencing, enabling users to experience remote locations in an immersive and interactive manner. The camera system incorporates features such as motion of camera system in X and Y axes, object tracking, and detection using Ultralytics YOLO V5 (You Only Look Once). The live video feed from the camera system is streamed over the internet by using OBS (Open Broadcaster Software version 29.1.3) virtual camera via platforms like Google Meet and viewed through VR headsets. Users can control the camera's movement and direction using intuitive interfaces like joysticks, enhancing their sense of presence and immersion. This article highlights the design and implementation of the adaptive camera system, its integration with virtual reality technologies, and the user experience it offers. The findings demonstrate the potential of this system for providing a realistic and engaging virtual teleportation experience in future.
