The video conference call may be held between any suitable and desired number of parties, at respective different locations. The call may be between two parties at respective different locations, i.e. a one to one call. The call may be between the first party at one location and multiple different parties at multiple different locations respectively. In this latter set of embodiments, the video conference call may comprise a one to many call, i.e. video image data is exchanged between the first party and multiple different other parties, or the video conference call may comprise a many to many call, i.e. video image data is exchanged between the each of the parties involved in the call.
The array of one or more video cameras and/or one or more sensors may comprise any suitable and desired type and number of video cameras and/or sensors in order to capture video image data of the first party at the first location. In one embodiment, the one or more sensors (e.g. each) comprise one or more video cameras and thus the array of one or more video cameras and/or one or more sensors may comprise a plurality of video cameras. When the array comprises one or more sensors that are not video cameras, these one or more sensors may, for example, comprise one or more sensors arranged to capture data outside of the visual spectrum, e.g. infra-red radiation. The one or more sensors may comprise one or more time of flight sensors or any other type of sensor that may be used to determine the three-dimensional position of a feature in the captured data (e.g. LIDAR sensor(s), IR sensor(s), ultrasound sensor(s)). The sensor(s) and the video camera(s) may be packaged together in a single unit.
