INCREASING AUDIENCE ENGAGEMENT DURING PRESENTATIONS BY AUTOMATIC ATTENDEE LOG IN, LIVE AUDIENCE STATISTICS, AND PRESENTER EVALUATION AND FEEDBACK

摘要

A presentation system includes a control server coupled to a presenter device via a network. The server receives a slide deck from the presenter device and calculates slide identifiers and analyses the slide deck to provide pre-presentation tips to the presenter. Attendee devices may log in to the presentation to receive a copy of the slide deck and to interact with the presenter and other attendees. In automatic log in, an attendee device is utilized to take a picture of a current slide or sample audio of the ongoing presentation. A slide recognition engine on either or both of the attendee device or the control server matches the data from the attendee device to a slide database to determine the presentation session and automatically log in the attendee. During the presentation, the control server automatically populates dynamic slides based on statistics from the audience including engagement and feedback items.
