Abstract

Current meeting information capturing paradigms such as pen and paper has been found to be tedious and distractive. This paper presents CollabMeet, a mobile phone based, one screen meeting information capture system to address these issues. We also introduce a new social interaction centric recording paradigm, where only moments deemed important by meeting participants are recorded with a single click of a button. Results from our pilot experiment shows that our system positively contributes to the quality of meeting reconstruction, while being minimally-distractive to the meeting participants.
