Abstract(in English) This paper describes the multi-party teleconferencing system, CyberCircle, which providesa virtual conference environment for various meeting types. On this system, remote participantsare extracted from remote-sites' images by subject-background separation and synthesized in thevirtual meeting room as if they were in the same space. A synthesized virtual environment is displayed on the large screen. CyberCircle achieves multiple eye-contacts by transmitting live video images of each participant taken from the three different directions. At each site, the appropriate image is selected according to the sitting position of the participant in the virtual environment and synthesized in the virtual meeting room.
