Meeting Interface Overview
The InterMIND interface is designed with careful consideration for cleanliness, intuitiveness, and accessibility. This section delineates the key elements visible during a live meeting and provides guidance on how users can interact with them effectively.
Main Interface Layout
Upon attending a meeting—whether as a Host, Moderator, Participant, or Guest—the screen layout varies based on your role (refer to the User Roles section). The layout includes:
- Top Status Bar: This bar displays the meeting link, security status, recording and translator indicator, providing essential information immediately
- Central Video Area: This area shows participants in either a grid or sidebar format, which can be adjusted via settings
- Bottom Toolbar: This toolbar contains the primary interaction controls vital for managing the meeting
- Side Panel (optional): This panel features chat, participant list, and AI Assistant, enhancing user interaction
Quick Customization Options
In the Settings, users can:
- Select their microphone, speaker, and camera devices to ensure optimal audio and visual quality
- Toggle between Grid or Sidebar layout to accommodate their preferences
- Enable or disable Background Blur for privacy during the meeting
- Change the Translator language to facilitate communication among participants speaking different languages
Participant Interaction Features
Participants can engage actively in the meeting using several available tools within the interface:
- Raise Hand: Participants can click this option to indicate their desire to speak. A hand icon will appear next to their name in the participant list, signaling their request
- Lower Hand: Hosts and Moderators can manually lower a participant's raised hand, maintaining order during discussions
- Chat: Participants can send messages to all attendees during the call using the side panel, fostering communication and collaboration
- Pin / Don't Watch: Users can customize their view by pinning specific participants or hiding them from their personal layout, tailoring their meeting experience
