Publication number: 20230231893Abstract: An apparatus and mechanism to manage multi-modal real-time or quasi real-time sessions such as voice, video, instant messaging, or web-conferencing across multiple devices through a simple subscription to a session management service. A user can subscribe to the service from many devices (e.g. mobile device, desk phone, personal computer, internet appliance, internet TV, communication terminal, etc.) and through the service seamlessly move sessions back and forth between subscribed devices. In a preferred embodiment, a user utilizes a “virtual slider” in a simple “two touch” procedure to effectuate the movement of a communication session from one device to another device via the service.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 27, 2023Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: RingCentral, Inc.Inventors: Doug CHAPPELLE, Johannes RUETSCHI, Jeffrey CRIPE, Ricardo De Lemos, Qiusheng JIANG, Robert HOFSTETTER, Hashim SHAFIQUE, Keith GLASNAPP, Rodrigo PASTRO, Jeff McNiece, Dinesh Kapani GOWDA, Luiz Cesar ZANIOLO, Viraj PURANIK, Christian GARBIN

Publication number: 20220238194Abstract: A communication apparatus and method for augmenting at least one data stream (e.g. a video stream) with data obtained from at least one computer device can facilitate the generation of a user interface that can provide an enhancement in telecommunication services. For example, in some embodiments a video stream from a patient device that is involved in a telecommunication communication session that also include at least one medical care device can be augmented to include data from the patient's health records stored in a computer device such that a graphical user interface displayed on the medical care device can include medical record indicia positioned over an image of the patient to indicate different health records related to parts of the patient's body being displayed. The indicia can provide information related to the age of the medical data and/or other aspects of a medical record indicated by the indicia.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2021Publication date: July 28, 2022Inventors: Johannes Ruetschi, Rodrigo Pastro, Christian Garbin

Patent number: 10536490Abstract: A gateway receives a message from a first terminal to establish a connection between the first terminal and a second terminal. The gateway sends a second message to the second terminal to offer a connection. After receiving the first message from the first terminal, the gateway receives subsequent third messages from the first terminal that identify candidates for assisting in the formation of the connection. The gateway saves information about these candidates. The gateway either uses such information for facilitating the formation of the connection or forwards that information to the second communication terminal after receiving an answer accepting the establishment of a connection from the second terminal and determining whether the second terminal has a WebRTC client.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2019Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: Unify GmbH & Co.
