  • Publication number: 20200371600
    Abstract: A computer program product and method for sending sensor data, the computer program product including a set of non-transitory computer readable instructions stored on a memory and executable by a processor, the set of non-transitory computer readable instructions arranged to: send, via a first protocol, from a first peripheral device to a first wearable audio device, a set of desired firmware capabilities, or, send, via the first protocol, from a first wearable audio device to the first peripheral device, a first set of available firmware capabilities of the first wearable audio device; compare the set of desired firmware capabilities to the first set of available firmware capabilities; and, proceed to an operating mode of the computer program product when the set of desired firmware capabilities and the first set of available firmware capabilities match.

  • Publication number: 20200280618
    Abstract: An audio system and method for sending sensor data including a first wearable audio device having a speaker, a first communication module arranged to establish a first connection with a first peripheral device and obtain a first data characteristic of the first wearable audio device, and obtain a second data characteristic of a first application running on a first peripheral device, and a sensor arranged to obtain a sensor data. The first wearable audio device or the first peripheral device are arranged to: compare the first data characteristic and the second data characteristic, and send or receive the sensor data obtained from the sensor to the first peripheral device for use with the first application if the first data characteristic and the second data characteristic match.

  • Patent number: 6731609
    Abstract: A telephony system for conducting multimedia telephonic communications across a packet-based network is described between a caller system and an agent system through a software switch. The software switch receives from the caller system a packet representing a request to conduct a multimedia telephonic conference with an agent system. The switch exchanges packets with the caller system to establish a call with the caller system. The switch provides an application program interface to a telephony application program through which the telephony application program can control multimedia telephonic conferences between the caller and agent systems. The switch then processes the call according to the commands received through the application program interface from the telephony application program. In one embodiment, the application is an Automatic Call Distributor (ACD), which routes calls through the software switch.
