Video communication method and system in instant communication
First Claim
1. A method implemented by one or more computing devices, the method comprising:
- receiving a request for video communication;
determining whether to perform a blurring operation for a video image of a first user; and
in response to determining that the blurring operation is to be performed for the video image of the first user,determining a region of operation corresponding to operation information in response to detecting an operation on the video image of the first user,obtaining the video image of the first user, andperforming the blurring operation only on a portion of the video image of the first user that is outside the region of operation, performing the blurring operation enabling a video dialog window of a second user to display a blurred video image of the first user.

Abstract
A video communication method and system implementing video communication between a first user and a second user in instant communication are disclosed. The method includes: receiving a request for video communication; determining whether to perform a blurred processing on a video image of the first user; and if affirmative, performing the blurred processing on the video image of the first user such that a blurred video image of the first user is displayed on a video dialog window of the second user. Using the present disclosure, convenient online interactions via video communication may be achieved while ensuring that respective privacies of users are not overly exposed.

8. One or more computer readable media storing executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising:
-
receiving a request for video communication; determining whether to perform a blurring operation for a video image of a first user; and in response to determining that the blurring operation is to be performed for the video image of the first user, determining a region of operation in response to detecting an operation on the video image of the first user, obtaining the video image of the first user, and performing the blurring operation on a portion of the video image of the first user that is outside the region of operation, performing the blurring operation enabling a video dialog window of a second user to display a blurred video image of the first user. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system comprising:
-
one or more processors; memory; a request sending unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to send a request for video communication to a client of a first user; a video image receiving unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to receive a video image of the first user from the client of the first user; a detection unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to determine a region of operation in response to detecting an operation on the video image of the first user; a query unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to send a query message including information associated with the region of operation to the client of the first user, the query message being used for querying the first user whether to allow the blurring operation to be performed only on a portion of video image that is outside the region of operation; and a display unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to display a blurred video image of the first user in a video dialog window of a second user, the blurred video image including an image which has been blurred only in a portion of the video image of the first user that is outside the region of operation in response to receiving an approval from the first user. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
