Abstract:
Methods 300 and systems 100 are provided for notifying a mobile telephone user of an incoming call in a loud ambient environment. A call notification system registers mobile devices located within the boundary of the area it serves, and couples to the mobile devices using a short range communication technology such as Bluetooth. Upon detecting an incoming call, the mobile device alerts the notification system after a predetermined number of rings. After a predetermined number of rings the notification system, in turn, presents an incoming call notification using visual cues or audio cues to catch the user's attention.
