摘要:
A system (100) and method (200) for information broadcasting is provided. The method can include collecting (202) information for distribution to a plurality of mobile devices, adding (204) context sensitive flags to the information to produce context information, broadcasting (206) the context information to an infrastructure having communication with the plurality of mobile devices, and filtering (208) the context information based on the context sensitive flags to produce context sensitive information. A context sensitive flag (410) can identify a geographic or semantic location to deliver the context sensitive information.
摘要:
A method and system of providing information associated with a previously visited location. The method can include the steps of monitoring the location of the mobile unit, receiving at the mobile unit information from one or more points of interest as the mobile unit engages the points of interest in which the information is associated with the points of interest and storing the information associated with the points of interest in a database that is accessible for a predetermined amount of time after the receipt of the information. The method can also include the step of storing the information into one of a predetermined number of categories based on how the mobile unit engages the points of interest.
摘要:
A method (90) and system (30) of presenting and positioning information on a user interface (56) includes a wearable display device, sensors (32) for detecting a context of use of the wearable display device using at least a vision sensor and a motion sensor, and a processor (42 or 50) coupled to the sensors and the wearable display device. The processor can analyze (93) a user's background view for areas suited for display of information in an analysis, and unobtrusively present (94) information within the user's field of view on the wearable display based on the context of use and the analysis. The processor can also determine (95) the type of information to unobtrusively present based on the context. The processor can optionally detect (92) the context of use by analyzing or recognizing a tool or an instrument used by a user of the wearable display.
摘要:
A system (100) and method (400) for sharing an audio experience is provided. The method can include identifying (402) mobile devices (104) in an area (910), discovering (404) sound production capabilities and sound monitoring capabilities, identifying (406) a relative location of devices in the area, assessing room acoustics (706), and networking the (408) devices for creating a surround sound based on the relative location, sound capabilities, and room acoustics. The system can include a group of active devices to generate the surround sound, a group of passive devices to listen to the surround sound, and a master device to configure the delivery of audio media based on the surround sound analyzed by the passive devices
摘要:
A method (40) and system (10, 20 or 30) of message handling can include tagging a message with an expiration period that is designated for delivery to a recipient (108) via a server (106), deleting (58) the message from the server after the expiration period if no third party recipient is designated or if the message is a lower priority message, and delivering (52) the message after the expiration period to a third party if a third party recipient (110) is designated. The method can further include sending (46) a notification to a sender that the expiration period has been reached if the message has not been sent and optionally offering an option to the sender to either delete the message from the server or to resend it with a new or no expiration period. Note, the message can be a text message, voice mail or calendar event message.
