A USB phone supporting multi-device conference application includes: a touch display module, an audio processing module, a digital enhanced cordless telecommunications (DECT) module, a Bluetooth module, a USB interface, and an MCU controller. The Bluetooth module is configured to establish a Bluetooth communication connection with an external Bluetooth terminal; the USB interface is configured to establish a USB communication connection with an external intelligent terminal; the DECT module is configured to establish a communication connection with an external wireless headphone; the touch display module is configured to display data, and recognize and obtain a touch operation instruction; the audio processing module is configured to perform audio processing on received audio data; the MCU controller is configured to process received data, further provided with a first mixer and connected to the touch display module, the audio processing module, the DECT module, the Bluetooth module, and the USB interface.

An information processing system includes a display controller that causes a display device to display a first input field in which predetermined information can be input, and an input information acquirer that acquires the predetermined information input by a user terminal when the user terminal becomes communicable. The display controller displays the predetermined information acquired by the input information acquirer in the first input field.

Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for improving establishment and broadcasting of communication, including providing an improved user experience using descriptive operator management. For example, a method comprises determining a first user accesses a mobile application on a first mobile device of the first user; determining a second user accesses the mobile application on a second mobile device of the second user; determining a descriptive operator associated with at least one of the first user, the second user, or the audio conversation; and initiating the audio conversation between the first user and the second user, wherein the audio conversation is broadcasted to a third user who accesses the mobile application on a third mobile device of the third user.

The present disclosure generally relates to managing phone calls. In some embodiments, an electronic device with a touch screen displays a phone call user interface which includes informational items associated with phone calls as well as other affordances. In some embodiments, the phone call user interface enables a user the electronic device to access various phone call management functions.

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. In some examples, a device displays synchronized media playback and plays a reaction from a first participant of the communication session.

A conference system with transmitting and receiving sides. The transmitting side has a microphone array unit with microphone capsules, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to receive output signals of the microphone capsules and to execute audio beamforming based on the received output signals for acquiring sound coming from an audio source in a first direction. The processing unit has a direction-recognition unit that computes from the output signals of said microphone capsules a score for each of multiple search grid spatial positions and uses a search grid spatial position having a higher score to identify said first direction. The receiving side has an audio reproduction system that reproduces an audio signal detected by the microphone array with directional information of the first direction. The detected audio signal and the directional information regarding the first direction are transmitted from the transmitting side to the receiving side.

An audio conferencing apparatus 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 trigger command signal during the audio conferencing, and directs audio from the first voice channel to a second voice channel upon detection of the trigger command signal. The second voice channel is used to access a collaboration service via the voice assistant service, with the collaboration service being used to manage audio conferencing in a meeting room in response to a command received by the voice assistant service.

Disclosed embodiments provide improved communication between a caller and multiple parties. A caller performs a call spray operation on a group of contacts using an electronic communication device such as a mobile telephone. The call spray operation attempts to contact an electronic device associated with each contact in the group of contacts. If one of the contacts answers and is deemed to be a live user, then the remaining contacts that did not answer each receive a message on their associated electronic device indicating which of the contacts answered the caller with a live user. In this way, a group of people can be conveniently contacted and kept up to date with the status of the communication with the caller.

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.

Audio telephone and video conferencing systems have a computerized server having a plurality of ports for terminating audio and video from participants, a connection to an Internet network, software providing switching and controls in conference management, and an interactive interface enabling an organizer to configure a conference, selecting time and participants, and a timer function timing participation by individual ones of participants. As each participant is enabled to speak, a preprogrammed time-to-speak is announced or displayed to at least the instant speaker, and the timer function begins to count down from the time-to-speak.
