Patent number: 8321228Abstract: Techniques for providing network services at an audio interface unit include determining, based on spoken sounds of a user of an apparatus received at a microphone of the apparatus, whether to present audio data received from a different apparatus. If it is determined to present the received audio data, then presentation of the received audio data at a speaker of the apparatus is initiated. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a data communications bus; and logic encoded in one or more tangible media configured to performs the above steps. In some embodiments, the apparatus does not include a visual display and does not include a keypad of multiple buttons.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2009Date of Patent: November 27, 2012Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Jan Chipchase, Pascal Wever, Nikolaj Bestle, Pawena Thimaporn, Thomas Ernst Arbisi, John-Rhys Newman, Andrew Julian Gartrell, Simon David James

Publication number: 20120233571Abstract: A method for providing quick access to functions from a locked screen may include receiving an indication of entry of an activation input at a user terminal while the user terminal is displaying a locked screen, causing a launch of an application associated with performance of a function associated with the application from the locked screen and without completion of an unlock procedure in response to the activation input, enabling the function to be performed while the activation input is provided, and causing the user terminal to revert to the locked screen in response to removal of the activation input. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2011Publication date: September 13, 2012Inventors: Pascal Wever, Julian Bleecker, Duncan Burns, Andrew Julian Gartrell, John-Rhys Newman, Marco Paglia, Ilkka Hyytiainen

Publication number: 20110066941Abstract: Techniques for providing a graphical user interface for an audio channel include receiving data that indicates multiple audio contents for audio presentation at a first node. A graphical user interface is formed, which displays a time sequence of the plurality of audio contents for presentation, and which associates with each audio content one or more selectable operations on the audio content. Presentation of the graphical user interface is caused at a second node. In response to causing presentation of the graphical user interface, data is received that indicates an associated operation on audio content based on input from the second node.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2009Publication date: March 17, 2011Applicant: Nokia CorporationInventors: Jan Chipchase, Pascal Wever, Nikolaj Bestle, Pawena Thimaporn, Thomas Arbisi, John-Rhys Newman, Andrew Gartrell, Simon James, Carrie Chan

Publication number: 20110054647Abstract: Techniques for providing network services at an audio interface unit includes receiving first data and second data. The first data indicates a first set of one or more contents for presentation to a user. The second data indicates a second set of zero or more contents for presentation to the user. An audio stream is generated based on the first data and the second data. Presentation is initiated of the audio stream at a speaker in an audio device of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2009Publication date: March 3, 2011Applicant: Nokia CorporationInventors: JAN CHIPCHASE, PASCAL WEVER, NIKOLAJ BESTLE, Pawena Thimaporn, Thomas Ernst Arbisi, John-Rhys Newman, Andrew Julian Gartrell, Simon David James
