Zusammenfassung:A videoconference device displays video data from a speech site such that a viewer can easily understand even in a case where the number of sites is large. A communication controller receives each piece of video data and voice data from conference terminal devices of a plurality of other sites. A video and voice synthesizer determines a screen layout depending on the number of sites participating in a videoconference, and generates synthesized video data obtained by synthesizing video data of each site according to the screen layout. At this time, the video and voice synthesizer generates the synthesized video data such that display of the video data of each site where a level of voice data is higher than or equal to a threshold is highlighted more than display of video data of the other sites. A video and voice output controller displays the synthesized video data on a screen of a display device.
