A method and system for triggering a local emergency system using wireless means. Existing local emergency systems are exploited through an ordinary mobile user device implementing the present invention. Disadvantages of current local emergency system are overcome by facilitating a user to remotely report emergency service request with more accurate location information automatically conveyed by the present invention. A mobile user device is configured to activate an emergency service station of a local emergency system without knowing the location of the emergency service station and without physically accessing and operating the emergency service station.

Displaying a secondary media stream within a primary media stream. In response to receiving a first user selection of two media streams for simultaneous viewing on a display device, a second user selection of a primary media stream and a secondary media stream from the two media streams selected for simultaneous viewing is received. A set of inset definitions is extracted from metadata in the secondary media stream. A third user selection of an inset definition from the set of inset definitions is received. A user input is received to crop the primary media stream to accommodate a size of the inset definition selected. The primary media stream is cropped to create an inset area for displaying the secondary media stream within the primary media stream based on the user input. The secondary media stream is displayed within the inset area of the cropped primary media stream for user viewing.

摘要:
A solution for managing a videoconference is provided. Multiple virtual backgrounds can be stored, and a virtual background can be selected to be used for a first participant when he/she is conducting a videoconference with a second participant. The virtual background can be selected based on one or more attributes of the first and/or second participant, one or more attributes of the videoconference, and/or the like. The virtual backgrounds can be utilized, for example, to provide a desired perception, message, and/or the like, of a business entity to individuals outside of the business entity that are interacting with its personnel via videoconferencing.

Embodiments of the invention provide for managing attraction attendance levels through tracking current attendance levels and notifying patrons of incentives to alter their attraction selections in real-time. Examples identify an attraction queue that has a customer wait time failing to meet a threshold and determine a geographic relationship of a tracking device associated with a registered customer to the queue. Accordingly, an incentive is created from metadata associated with the queue and offered to the registered customer to urge the registered customer to take a queue balancing action. The queue balancing action may be leaving the queue if the customer wait time exceeds a threshold maximum wait time and the tracking device is within the queue, or choosing to enter the queue if the customer wait time is less than a threshold minimum wait time and the tracking device is outside of the queue.
摘要:
A method, programmed medium and system are provided for an enhanced interface connection for a primary electronic device such that system storage devices (e.g. hard drives, solid state drives, flash drives, etc.) within the primary device may be made available to other nearby devices in the event of a power supply failure or battery failure or to preserve-battery power in the primary system whereby the data on a storage device within a primary system becomes accessible by external devices, without necessitating the removal of the storage medium or full powering-up of the primary system.
摘要:
A conference call management method and system. The method includes receiving by a computer processor from a conference call administrator, a command for enabling a first conference call. The computer processor enables the first conference call thereby allowing telecommunications between the conference call administrator and a first participant. The computer processor locks the first conference call such that additional participants are unable to access the first conference call. The computer processor receives from a second participant, a conference call request for accessing a second conference call and routes the second participant to a virtual holding area. The computer processor enables the second conference call and routes the second participant from the virtual holding area to the second conference call.
