摘要:
A template listing one or more associated tasks is distributed to one or more devices, each device having a respective user. A task is selectively designated as either shared or individual. When information indicating that an action associated with a particular task has been performed is received at a first one of the devices, the template is updated at the first device, and optionally at others of the devices to indicate to others of the users that the action has been performed. The associated action of a shared task is performed once for all users, and the associated action of an individual task is performed separately by one or more of the users. Task information is optionally communicated between a template on a particular one of the devices and a personal information manager of the respective user of a particular device.

Methods and systems for transferring a communications exchange using a mobile handset are described. A radio frequency (RF) signal is transmitted from a mobile handset to a base station to provide a communications exchange. The communications exchange exists between the mobile handset and a first communications device. The mobile handset automatically detects a second communications device when it is in close proximity to the second communications device. The second communications device is capable of receiving a call handoff. If the mobile handset is in close proximity to the second communications device, then a transfer request including information associated with the second communications device is received from the second communications device. The transfer request is accepted and the communications exchange is seamlessly transferred to the second communications device form the mobile handset.
摘要:
An imaging system and method with an arrangement for sensing the performance of an optical system and providing data in response thereto and electronically correcting nonuniformity in the performance of the optical system in response thereto. In the illustrative application, the nonuniformity is a porthole effect. In the preferred embodiment, the arrangement for correcting includes an arrangement for providing an inverse distortion to an output of the system electronically. The inverse distortion is applied by generating a plurality of spatial correction coefficients from the performance data, storing the coefficients and applying the coefficients to current data from the optical system. The spatial correction coefficients are statistically generated gain and level correction defect maps. The present teachings should enable a correction of optical distortion in nonideal electro-optical systems without requiring additional optics.

A method for providing a contact attempt service includes detecting an attempt of a first user to contact a second user through a first communication method and detecting contact between the first user and the second user through a second communication method. The method also includes removing a contact attempt indicator associated with the attempt of the first user to contact the second user through the first communication method.

A method for providing training to agents of an automatic call distribution center includes determining whether an agent is idle and, in response to determining that the agent is idle, initiating playback of a recorded training call to the agent. Additionally, the method includes receiving an incoming call from a caller for connection with one of a plurality of agents. Also, the method includes terminating playback of the recorded training call and connecting the agent to the incoming call.
摘要:
A method for projecting an image projects, optically, an image on a display surface. A presence of a person in a region of projection is detected and a brightness of the image is reduced in response to detecting the presence of the person in the region of projection.
摘要:
A method of linking recognized emotions to non-visual representations includes receiving at a first location information corresponding to demonstrative behaviors of individuals. The behaviors of the individuals may be analyzed during a dynamic session, in which the information is used to determine emotional states of one or more of the individuals. The information about the emotional state may then be used at the first location to determine an action for improving the dynamic session.
摘要:
A template that lists a shared task is received at a first device. The template is also distributed in parallel to a plurality of other devices. When information indicating that the action has been performed is received, the template is updated at the first device and also at the other devices to indicate that the action has been performed.
摘要:
A method, system, and computer-readable medium are provided for determining a layout of automatically-placed elements and user-placed elements in a chart created in a chart application program. User-placed elements in the chart include chart elements that have been moved and/or resized by a user. User-placed elements include chart elements that have been moved and/or resized by a user. Automatically-placed elements include chart elements that have been laid out according to an automatic position and size calculated by the chart application program. The chart application program executes a method including selecting a group of automatically-placed chart elements and user-placed chart elements previously laid out in the chart and automatically laying out the automatically-placed chart elements and the user-placed chart elements according to an automatic position and size calculated by the chart application program. The method further includes reselecting each of the elements from among the automatically laid out elements in the chart, determining whether the selected chart element are user-placed chart elements, and if the selected chart element are user-placed chart elements, then laying out the user-placed chart element in the chart according to a user-specified layout.
摘要:
A method for providing communication with an automated voice system includes establishing a first communication session between a caller and the automated voice system. The first communication session includes a call thread. The method also includes receiving a signal indicative of a call event. In response to receiving the signal indicative of the call event, a state of the call thread is saved. The method also includes establishing a second communication session between the caller and the automated voice system at a state of the call thread associated with the saved state of the call thread.
