To simplify the designation of a part that a presenter emphasizes for participants in presentation materials of a conference, and to suppress an increase in the burden on the presenter during presentation.SOLUTION: A conference support system includes: a display unit that displays conference materials; an imaging unit that at least captures an image of a presenter viewing the conference materials displayed on the display unit; a line-of-sight detection unit that detects the presenter's line of sight based on the captured image reflecting the presenter; an area determination unit that determines a specific area, which is a part of the conference materials, where the presenter's line of sight stays based on the presenter's line of sight; a communication unit that communicates with at least one conference material delivery destination terminal; and a control unit that sends the conference materials with the specific area emphasized to the delivery destination terminal via the communication unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】会議の発表資料中で発表者が参加者のために強調する箇所の指定を簡易化し、発表者の発表中の負担増大を抑制する。【解決手段】会議支援システムは、会議資料を表示する表示部と、表示部に表示された会議資料を見る発表者を少なくとも撮像する撮像部と、発表者が映る撮像画像を基に、発表者の視線を検知する視線検知部と、発表者の視線を基に、発表者の視線が滞留した会議資料の一部である特定領域を判定する領域判定部と、少なくとも１台の会議資料の配信先端末との間で通信する通信部と、特定領域に強調処理が施された会議資料を、通信部を介して配信先端末に送る制御部と、を備える。【選択図】図４
