Abstract
We propose a new video conference display that replicates
the eye contact back channel information available to the attendees of actual
conferences. The display consists of multiple screens that present remote
participants' faces so as to show their gaze direction, i.e., the direction
in which they are looking. We introduce a prototype video conference terminal
with two screens and demonstrate that it offers eye contact with directivity
of up to 17 deg. In addition, the screens replicate the participants' gaze
direction from the relative positions of the face and eyes.
