Systems and methods for optimization of transmission of real-time data via network labeling
The present invention relates to systems and methods for network labeling in order to enhance real time data transfers. A network for a real time data transfer is identified and predictive models for network performance are compared against to determine if the network is suitable for the data transfer. If so, then the real time data transfer may be completed as expected. However, if the network is predicted to be unsuitable for transmission an alternate means for connection may be suggested. The alternate suggestion may include delaying the data transfer until the network is expected to be in better conditions, connecting to another access point in the network, or switching to another network entirely. During the data transfer, the quality of the network is monitored in order to update the predictive models for the network's quality. Identifiers for the network may be utilized to keep track of the networks. Network signal strength, signal pollution and time may also be tracked in order to identify patterns in the network's performance.
Conference call mute management
A device receives call data associated with a conference call between a plurality of users. The call data includes at least two of: data identifying each of the plurality of users, data identifying user activity associated with at least one user in the plurality of users, and conference call metadata associated with the conference call. The call muting platform receives voice data associated with the conference call. The voice data is associated with at least one vocal utterance associated with the plurality of users. The call muting platform provides the call data and the voice data to a second device, and receives mute data from the second device. The mute data indicates whether to mute or un-mute a particular user of the plurality of users.
User interface for multi-user communication session
The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for multi-user communication sessions. In some examples, a device initiates a live stream in a communication session. In some examples, a device transitions between streaming live audio and live video. In some examples, a device enables synchronizing media playback during a live stream.
INTELLIGENT CONTENT POPULATION IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A communication system may provide a user interface that includes sections or areas populated with video feeds and/or still images associated with a communication session. A first of the sections may be populated with a video feed or still image of a presenter in the communication session. A second of the sections may be populated with a video feed or still image of an audience member of the video conference that is interacting with the presenter. The communication system may arrange the video feeds or still images to properly represent an interaction between the audience member and the presenter in the communication session, or the communication system may adjust an orientation of one or more of the video feeds or still images to properly represent the interaction between the audience member and the presenter.
IN-BAND VOICE-ASSISTANT/CONCIERGE FOR CONTROLLING ONLINE MEETINGS
A computing device includes a hardware interface to be coupled to a microphone and speaker assembly, and a network interface to be coupled to a network for audio conferencing with remote audio conferencing devices and for accessing a voice assistant service that operates to assist with the audio conferencing. An audio interceptor is coupled between the hardware interface and the network interface to direct audio over a first voice channel while audio conferencing with the remote audio conferencing devices. The audio interceptor monitors for a user initiated trigger command signal during the audio conferencing, and directs audio from the first voice channel to a second voice channel upon detection of the user initiated trigger command signal. The second voice channel is used to access the voice assistant service.
Display processing apparatus
A mobile terminal apparatus including an operation lock mode setting unit that sets an operation lock mode; an event container display control unit that displays, when a predetermined event occurs, an event container indicating the occurred predetermined event on a display unit; an event container display change control unit that sets an event container between an active state and an inactive state; a lock canceling operation unit that cancels the operation lock mode; and a canceling operation handling control unit that, when an active-state event container is displayed on the display unit and the operation lock mode is canceled, performs automatic activation and display of an application program corresponding to the event of the active-state event container, and when all event containers on the display unit are in the inactive state and the operation lock mode is canceled, displays a predetermined display screen on the display unit.
Method to provide ad hoc and password protected digital and voice networks
A method and system includes the ability for individuals to set up an ad hoc digital and voice network easily and rapidly to allow users to coordinate their activities by eliminating the need for pre-entry of data into a web or identifying others by name, phone numbers or email. This method is especially useful for police, fire fighters, military, first responders or other emergency situations for coordinating different organizations at the scene of a disaster to elevate conventional communication problems either up and down the chain of command or cross communication between different emergency units. The method and system provides that the users are only required to enter a specific Server IP address and an ad hoc event name, a password and perhaps the name of the particular unit.
TERMINAL AND SERVER FOR PROVIDING VIDEO CALL SERVICE
There is provided an application stored in a computer-readable storage medium for a first terminal to perform a method of providing a video call service, the method including: establishing a video call session between the first terminal of a first user and a second terminal of a second user; preparing facial expression information of the second user accumulated in at least one video call session executed by the second terminal before the video call session; determining emotion information corresponding to the facial expression information of the second user based on the facial expression information of the second user; and providing the determined emotion information through an execution screen of the first terminal.
Portable multifunction device, method, and graphical user interface for conference calling
In some embodiments, a portable multifunction device with a touch screen display performs a method that includes: displaying a phone call user interface on the touch screen display, wherein the phone call user interface includes: a first informational item associated with an active phone call between a user of the device and a first party, a second informational item associated with a suspended phone call between the user and a second party, and a merge call icon; upon detecting a user selection of the merge call icon, merging the active phone call and the suspended phone call into a conference call between the user, the first party, and the second party, and replacing the phone call user interface with a conference call user interface. The conference call user interface includes: a third informational item associated with the conference call, and a conference call management icon.
