Zusammenfassung:A video conferencing system includes an image of a participant in a video conference and a depth map of the image. The system identifies objects in the background of the image, identifies objects in the foreground of the image, and identifies objects in the middle-ground of the image. The system removes the objects from the middle-ground, and replaces the removed objects from the middle-ground with the objects from the background that are located behind the removed objects. The system then uses the image with the removed and replaced objects in a video stream of the video conference.
