Abstract :
The research summarised here is working towards automatic control systems for cameras, in support of remote meetings. Progress is reported on several fronts: use of active contours to track heads, stereo sound analysis applying particle filtering to handle both visual and aural clutter, and the use of exemplars for stabilisation of inter-frame matching
