Abstract: A system and method of providing ringback video are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a connection request at an originating serving call session control function (S-CSCF) network element. The connection request indicates that a caller device has placed a call to a destination device associated with a ringback video service subscriber. The method also includes receiving a plurality of naming authority pointer (NAPTR) records at the originating S-CSCF network element from a telephone number mapping (ENUM) server. The NAPTR records include a plurality of ringback video uniform resource indicators (URIs) associated with the destination device. The method also includes modifying the connection request to include the plurality of ringback video URIs and sending the modified connection request to a terminating S-CSCF that communicates with the destination device.

Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can utilize photo-sensors embedded in a substantially transparent layer of a UI display for tracking objects that approach or hover over the UI display. The photo-sensors can be configured to detect light of certain wavelengths (e.g., visible light, infrared light) that are propagated toward the UI display, while ignoring light emanating from the UI display when displaying content. Accordingly, by examining various characteristics of the incoming light such as intensity, the architecture can identify a location of a shadow incident upon the display caused by an approaching or hovering selector object blocking portions of incoming light. Additionally or alternatively, the architecture can identify a location of higher intensity for light emanating from the selector object.

Abstract translation: 所要求保护的主题涉及可以利用嵌入在UI显示器的基本上透明的层中的光传感器来跟踪接近或悬停在UI显示器上的对象的架构。 光传感器可以被配置为检测向UI显示器传播的某些波长的光（例如，可见光，红外光），同时忽略当显示内容时从UI显示器发出的光。 因此，通过检查诸如强度的入射光的各种特性，该体系结构可以识别由接近或悬停的选择对象阻挡入射光的部分引起的在显示器上入射的阴影的位置。 另外或替代地，架构可以识别从选择器对象发出的光的较高强度的位置。
