Claim 0:
1. A computer-implementable method for selectively enhancing regions of image data frames captured at a teleconferencing endpoint, comprising:
capturing a first image data frame using an image capture device of the teleconferencing endpoint;
identifying, by a processor of the teleconferencing endpoint, a first region of interest within the first image data frame;
rendering, in a memory of the teleconferencing endpoint, the first image data frame as a key frame;
capturing, using the image capture device, a second image data frame;
identifying, by the processor, a second region of interest within the second image data frame;
applying, by the processor when the processor determines that the second region of interest occupies more than twenty-five percent of the second image data frame, an image data enhancement algorithm to data within the second region of interest;
producing, by the processor, a subsequent frame when the processor applies the image data enhancement algorithm to the data within the second region of interest; and
transmitting the subsequent frame to a remote endpoint through a network interface of the teleconferencing endpoint.
