Abstract:
A virtual assistant (VA) integrity monitor is provided to interface with a computer aided dispatch (CAD) center to ensure reliability of a VA server operating with a communication system. The VA integrity monitor generates a test query which is perceived by the VA server as being a real, user-generated query to which the VA server responds. The VA integrity monitor verifies that a response provided by the VA server meets predetermined criteria and communicates a result to the CAD center. The CAD center advantageously recognizes that the request and the response are based on a simulated test and therefore does not take action on either the query or the response. When the VA integrity monitor verifies that a response provided by the VA server does not meet the predetermined criteria, the CAD system can send out an alert.
Abstract:
A secure digital format card that includes two interfaces to a processor is provided, comprising a housing, and a processor that includes a secure digital input/output (SDIO) interface, a second interface, and further connections different from the interfaces. A first set and second set of pads are located at the housing, a subset of the first set for communicating with the processor via the SDIO interface. A subset of the second set for communicating with the processor via the second interface, and a further subset of the second set for communicating with the processor via the further connections. The processor is configured to: enable the subset of the second set of pads via the second interface when enable data is received via the one or more further connections, from the further subset of the second set of pads.
Abstract:
A remote speaker microphone with touch volume control is provided. The remote speaker microphone includes a housing; a microphone; a speaker; and an interface configured to connect the speaker and the microphone. The remote speaker microphone further includes a touch sensor configured to, in response to receiving touch input, control a volume level of the speaker from a first volume level to a lower volume level, the first volume level being one of a plurality of discrete volume levels.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for indicating the status of an ancillary embedded system in an electronic device. In one exemplary embodiment, the method includes starting an initialization process of a high-level embedded system in the electronic device. The method further includes determining the status of the ancillary embedded system. The method further includes generating display information for the status of the ancillary embedded system. The method further includes storing the display information in a manner retrievable by the high-level embedded system. The method further includes reading the stored set of display information and displaying an indication of the status on a user display prior to completion of the high-level embedded system's initialization process. The method further includes periodically updating the stored set of display information by the ancillary embedded system to provide a real-time indication of status.
