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 (see AI Features)
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
