Patent attributes
Various arrangements for initiating and conducting asymmetrical video communication are presented. A streaming video and audio device may detect an acceleration of the streaming video and audio device over a predefined acceleration threshold. In response, the streaming video and audio device may transmit an acceleration-triggered asymmetrical video communication request to a cloud-based communication server system. The cloud-based communication server system may determine a user account that is linked with the video and audio capture device from which the acceleration-triggered asymmetrical video communication request was received. In response, an acceleration-triggered asymmetrical video communication link may be established between the video and audio capture device and an application executed by a mobile device.
