Abstract

A computer-implemented method for sharing conference content is provided. The method comprises receiving a share input from a first device corresponding to a participant of a conference session, determining content for sharing using communication information associated with the participant, determining that the content is available through a second device and sharing the content using the second device.

Claims (48)

1. A computer-implemented method for sharing conference content, the method comprising:

receiving a share input from a first device corresponding to a participant of a conference session, wherein the share input is an indication for a content to be shared;

determining the content for sharing based on communication information associated with the participant, wherein communication information is a communication data exchanged by the participant with another user, wherein the content is accessible from the first device and from a second device;

identifying that the communication information is associated with one or more non-participants of the conference session, wherein the second device is associated with the one or more non-participants;

determining that the content is unavailable to share from the first device and determining that the content is available to share from the second device, wherein determining whether the content is unavailable to be shared is based on at least suitability of the content to be shared or whether a more updated version of the content is available through the second device or based on network connectivity of the first device; and

sharing the content via the second device with participants of the conference session.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining that the content is unavailable from the first device.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the content comprises using machine learning.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining that the communication information is associated with one or more other participants of the conference session; and

wherein the second device is associated with the one or more other participants.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the share input comprises receiving a signal indicating selection of a share control.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the share input comprises receiving keywords corresponding to the content.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein sharing the content comprises causing to display the content through a browser.

8. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause:

receiving a share input from a first device corresponding to a participant of a conference session, wherein the share input is an indication for a content to be shared;

determining the content for sharing based on communication information associated with the participant, wherein communication information is a communication data exchanged by the participant with another user, wherein the content is accessible from the first device and from a second device;

identifying that the communication information is associated with one or more non-participants of the conference session, wherein the second device is associated with the one or more non-participants;

determining that the content is unavailable to share from the first device and determining that the content is available to share from the second device, wherein determining whether the content is unavailable to be shared is based on at least suitability of the content to be shared or whether a more updated version of the content is available through the second device or based on network connectivity of the first device; and

sharing the content via the second device with participants of the conference session.

9. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , storing a second set of instructions that, when executed by the processor, further cause:

determining that the content is unavailable from the first device.

10. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein determining the content comprises using machine learning.

11. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , storing a second set of instructions that, when executed by the processor, further cause:

determining that the communication information is associated with one or more other participants of the conference session.

12. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , storing a second set of instructions that, when executed by the processor, further cause:

enabling the first device to control the content, which is shared using the second device.

13. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein receiving the share input comprises receiving a signal indicating selection of a share control.

14. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein receiving the share input comprises receiving keywords corresponding to the content.

15. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein sharing the content comprises causing to display the content through a browser.

16. A system, comprising:

a processor;

a memory operatively connected to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause:

receiving a share input from a first device corresponding to a participant of a conference session, wherein the share input is an indication for a content to be shared;

determining the content for sharing based on communication information associated with the participant, wherein communication information is a communication data exchanged by the participant with another user, wherein the content is accessible from the first device and from a second device;

identifying that the communication information is associated with one or more non-participants of the conference session, wherein the second device is associated with the one or more non-participants;

determining that the content is unavailable to share from the first device and determining that the content is available to share from the second device, wherein determining whether the content is unavailable to be shared is based on at least suitability of the content to be shared or whether a more updated version of the content is available through the second device or based on network connectivity of the first device; and

sharing the content via the second device with participants of the conference session.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the memory stores further instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause:

in response to receiving the share input, causing to display, in a graphical user interface of the first device, one or more content options for sharing;

receiving a selection input for one of the one or more content options; and

wherein sharing the content is in response to receiving the selection input for the content option.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the communication information associated with the participant comprises audio data or text data.

19. The system of claim 16 , wherein the content is shared between a limited list of conference participants.

20. The system of claim 17 , wherein the one or more content options for sharing is ranked based on likelihood for sharing score.

21. The system of claim 17 , wherein the selection input for one of the one or more content options is done automatically based on machine learning.

22. The system of claim 16 , wherein sharing the content comprises causing to display the content through a browser.
