The present disclosure describes a system, method, and computer-readable medium for providing audio announcement of communications to a called party in a communication network. The method includes receiving communication from a calling party and performing a lookup of information relating to the calling party in a database via an Internet Protocol connection based on an identifier of at least one of the calling party and the called party. The information comprises one or more audio files. The method then provides the audio announcement to a called party based on the audio files.

Systems and methods for electronically creating and modifying a fitness plan are disclosed. The method may include receiving electronic user data, collecting electronic fitness data, and displaying a suggestion for a fitness activity based on the electronic user data and the electronic fitness data.

A system for reducing traffic accidents caused by distraction from a mobile telecom device. The system detects when the device is near a driver's seat of a moving vehicle. While the system is carrying a voice call between a remote voice device and the mobile device, the system modifies voice signal transmission between the devices by periodically playing a beep or other signal to remind the parties that one of them is driving and suspends voice signal transmission from the remote device to the mobile device when the system detects that circumstances affecting level of attention required for driving merit the driver paying greater attention.

A wearable device can establish a verified session with a host device (e.g., by establishing that the wearable device is present in the vicinity of the host device and is currently being worn). The existence of such a verified session can be used to control user access to sensitive information that may be stored in or otherwise accessible to a host device. For example, the host device and/or application programs executing thereon can be configured to restrict a user's ability to invoke program functionality that accesses sensitive information based on whether a verified session with a wearable device is currently in progress.

The present invention discloses a method, a device and a mobile browser client for realizing centralized management of intelligent hardware devices by an APP, wherein the method comprising: identifying identification information of an intelligent hardware device via an identification interface provided by an APP on a mobile terminal; based on the information identifying, establishing a bluetooth connection between the mobile terminal and the intelligent hardware device; acquiring, by the APP, hardware controlling information of the intelligent hardware device through the bluetooth connection; and providing, in the APP, a display interaction interface which is based on the hardware controlling information.

Devices and methods for controlling the functionality of a pair of earbuds. The first earbud establishes a connection between the first earbud and an electronic device, searches for the second earbud of the pair of earbuds using Body Coupled Communication, BCC, and sends a signal from the first earbud to the electronic device including information defining whether the first earbud detected the second earbud during the search. The electronic device receives a signal from the at least one of the earbuds, the signal comprising information defining whether the earbud has detected the other earbud of the pair of earbuds using Body Coupled Communication, BCC, and sends a signal to the at least one earbud wherein the signal is controlled based on the received signal and includes information associated with controlling the functionality of the pair of earbuds.

An apparatus and method are described herein, which simultaneously promotes a positive computing experience for users of portable computer systems and increases overall durability and longevity thereof. In one embodiment, an optical apparatus enhances the user computing experience, in one embodiment by simplifying operation, and is much more durable and long-lasting than mechanical switch and dial type devices it may replace. In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to an apparatus, which enables efficient portable computer device function, field, and data selection, gaming, input, interconnection, and other switching-related functions, simplifying operation and enhancing versatility thereof, yet without exposing the portable computer interior to any degree to incursion of environmental contamination. In one embodiment, an optical apparatus obviates openings in a portable computer package which would otherwise be required. In one embodiment, the apparatus, capable of sensing manipulation and directed by software, has a light source and corresponding light sensor.

Methods and systems for providing standardized mobile device distraction prevention and safety protocols are disclosed. In particular, an embodiment of a method for activating a distraction prevention or safety protocol behavior in a mobile device when the mobile device satisfies a specific condition is disclosed. The method includes discovering one or more protocol activators configured to transmit discovery information associated with a specific condition. The method further includes activating distraction prevention safety protocol behavior in the mobile device based at least in part on the discovery information. In an implementation, the specific condition may be a specified environment itself and or include an event when the mobile device enters a specified environment or a specified sequence of numbers is dialed from the mobile device.

An operation method for a mobile electronic device is provided. The operation method includes: transmitting a calling phone number to a wireless audio product from an operation system of the mobile electronic device via wireless communication, wherein the mobile electronic device is wirelessly connected to the wireless audio product; transmitting the calling phone number to an application software of the mobile electronic device by the wireless audio product; searching a caller name corresponding to the calling phone number by the application software of the mobile electronic device; transmitting the caller name to the wireless audio product by the application software of the mobile electronic device via wireless communication; and playing the caller name by the wireless audio product.

A Bluetooth audio broadcasting system includes: an audio broadcasting device, a first Bluetooth member device, and a second Bluetooth member device. The audio broadcasting device broadcasts BLE audio packets. After the first Bluetooth member device issues a volume adjusting request, the audio broadcasting device transmits a volume adjusting instruction to the first Bluetooth member device and the second Bluetooth member device. The first Bluetooth member device acquires a predetermined audio data from the BLE audio packets, controls a first audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data, and adjusts an audio volume of the first audio playback circuit according to the volume adjusting instruction. The second Bluetooth member device acquires the predetermined audio data from the BLE audio packets, controls a second audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data, and adjusts an audio volume of the second audio playback circuit according to the volume adjusting instruction.
