    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing an audible identification of a device is provided herein. During operation, device identities will be determined for members forming a personal-area network (PAN). When information is conveyed by a device, a determination of whether or not to announce a device identification will be based on a combination of PAN members present. More particularly, when a certain combination of devices are members of the PAN, device identifications will be announced, otherwise, device identifications will not be announced.

    Abstract: An electronic communication device and method for crowd-based application synchronization. The device includes a display, a memory storing a first application, a transceiver, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to associate the electronic communication device with a first talk group, determine a first function in which the first application is configured to perform, and receive, via the transceiver, information regarding a number of members of the first talk group that are using an instance of a second application to perform the first function. The electronic processor is further configured to automatically present, based on the information, on the display, a running instance of the second application or a selection mechanism for the second application.

    Abstract: A method and system for tracking an object of interest in a talkgroup. The method includes receiving a first image stream including the object from a first portable communication device associated with the talkgroup. The method includes detecting the object in the first image stream, determining a first view angle associated with the object's position in relation to the first device, and determining a second view angle associated with the object's position in relation to a second portable communication device. When a difference between the first angle and the second angle is below a threshold, a first modified image stream is generated by highlighting the object in the first image stream. When the difference between the first angle and the second angle is above the threshold, a second modified image stream is generated by highlighting the object and indicating a relative direction to the object from the second device.

    Abstract: A method and system of providing decision support to first responders. One method includes identifying, with an electronic processor, a first plurality of characteristics of a first responder. The method further includes generating, with the electronic processor, a first score for the first responder based on the first plurality of characteristics. The method further includes identifying with the electronic processor, a suspect at an incident area. The method further includes identifying, with the electronic processor, a second plurality of characteristics of the suspect. The method further includes generating, with the electronic processor, a second score for the suspect based on the second plurality of characteristics. The method further includes comparing, with the electronic processor, the first score and the second score. The method further includes outputting, with an output device electrically connected to the electronic processor, a recommended action.

    Abstract: A method of managing communications of a mobile communications device. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a travel route with the mobile communications device and assigning a first quality of service to the mobile communications device in response to receiving the travel route. The method also includes determining a current location of the mobile communications device, determining a positional deviation of the mobile communications device from the travel route based on the current location of the mobile communications device, and assigning a second quality of service to the mobile communications device when the positional deviation of the mobile communications device exceeds a predetermined threshold. The second quality of service being higher than the first quality of service.

    Abstract: Methods, and apparatus for managing a communication group. One method includes forming a communication group of one or more portable communications devices based on a first object of interest and identifying a second object of interest based on the first object of interest. The method also includes determining whether an image feed includes the second object of interest and when the image feed includes the second object of interest, adding a portable communications device associated with the image feed to the communication group.
