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;
detecting a first operation on a video image of a first user for performing a blurring operation, the first operation including a selection of a first region of operation which area is less than an entire area of the video image;
determining the first region of operation corresponding to the detected first operation; and
performing the blurring operation on a portion of the video image of the first user that is outside the first region of operation, the blurring operation enabling a video dialog window of a second user to display a partially 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; detecting a first operation on a video image of a first user for performing a blurring operation; determining a first region of operation corresponding to the detected first operation; and performing the blurring operation on a portion of the video image of the first user that is outside the first region of operation, 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, portions of the video image that are other than a portion corresponding to a first region of operation being blurred, wherein the first region of operation corresponds to a first operation that is detected on the video image of the first user; and a display unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to provide the video image of the first user for display in a video dialog window of a second user. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
