  • Publication number: 20200012810
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a communication system and method, among other things. As a non-limiting example, the method includes enabling access to entries of personal digital data for a plurality of users; enabling at least some of the personal digital data for the plurality of users to be retrieved by a query that contains an identification of a first user and authentication information associated with the first user; receiving a group identifier that is stored with reference to personal digital data of the first user; and distributing relationship digital data that describes a relationship between the first user and the second user based on the existence of the group identifier.

  • Patent number: 10523921
    Abstract: Systems and methods for replacing a 2D image with an equivalent 3D image within a web page. The 2D image displayed within a web page may be identified and a 3D image with substantially equivalent content may also be identified. The 3D image may be integrated into the web page as a replacement to the 2D image. Further, at least one user input manipulating the 3D image within the web page may be received. The at least one user input may include movement of a view point (or point of view) of a user relative to a display displaying the web page and/or detection of a beam projected from an end of a user input device (and/or an end of the user input device) intersecting with the 3D image.

  • Patent number: 10523922
    Abstract: Systems and methods for replacing a 2D image with an equivalent 3D image within a web page. Content of a 2D image displayed within a web page may be identified and 3D images may be identified as possible replacements of the 2D image. The 3D images may be ranked based on sets of ranking criteria. A 3D image with a highest-ranking value may be selected based on a ranking of the 3D images. The selected 3D image may be integrated into the web page, thereby replacing the 2D image with the selected 3D image. Further, a user input manipulating the 3D image within the web page may be received. The user input may include movement of a view point of a user relative to a display displaying the web page and/or detection of a beam projected from an end of a user input device intersecting with the 3D image.

  • Patent number: 10469655
    Abstract: Embodiments provide systems and methods for reconstructing a communication session upon a failure of a session manager by monitoring a communication session associated with a Universal Call IDentifier (UCID) and detecting a failure of the session manager. In some cases, A timer can be set in response to detecting the failure of the session manager. In response to the timer expiring before detecting the recovery of the session manager, the application server can end monitoring of the communication session. In response to detecting a subsequent recovery of the session manager, a re-invitation message associated with the communication session and including the UCID can be sent. Communications components of the contact center can receive and accept the re-invitation message, re-map a session initiated by the re-invitation message to the communication session based on the UCID from the re-invitation message, and reconstruct the communication session.

  • Patent number: 10440127
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a mobile-specific intermediary replacement for the toll free service. This mobile intermediary entity or service can provide four primary call invocation types. Namely, calls can be invoked through a dialer of the mobile device, through a web interface accessed through the mobile device, through a mobile application executing on the mobile device, or through a personal assistant of similar service. The mobile intermediary entity or service can also provide rich, supplementary services for mobile callers. These services can include but are not limited to menu navigation, call continuity, caller geo-location awareness, and awareness of the caller's mobile network operator's identifier. Services natively provided by the called enterprise, such as call conferencing, can also be provided within the call.

  • Publication number: 20190253699
    Abstract: Systems and methods for capturing a two dimensional (2D) image of a portion of a three dimensional (3D) scene may include a computer rendering a 3D scene on a display from a user's point of view (POV). A camera mode may be activated in response to user input and a POV of a camera may be determined. The POV of the camera may be specified by position and orientation of a user input device coupled to the computer, and may be independent of the user's POV. A 2D frame of the 3D scene based on the POV of the camera may be determined and the 2D image based on the 2D frame may be captured in response to user input. The 2D image may be stored locally or on a server of a network.

  • Publication number: 20190230163
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a communication system and method. In some embodiments, a mobile network core is provided with a communication interface that establishes enables the receipt of incoming calls, a microprocessor, and memory that stores instructions that, when executed by the microprocessor, enable the microprocessor to identify an incoming call as being associated with a first persona or a second persona and, based on whether the incoming call is identified as being associated with the first persona or the second persona, automatically causes a user interface of a mobile device associated with the incoming call to present a particular set of applications from a plurality of applications to a user of the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 10212145
    Abstract: Mobile devices and other devices used in transactions or interactions with other computer systems can be identified by an abstract composite of information unique to the device. For example, the device can record and store when a user first started the device (a date and time of first use), how the device is configured (including any hardware/software identifications, versions, install dates, time when configurations or installations occurred, etc.), etc. All of the information can be collected for a specified period of time (e.g., 30 minutes, 1 hour, etc.), periodically, or continually. This process yields a large collection of data, which can be condensed (a record before condensing the data may be approximately 10 to 50 MB). The data may then be encapsulated in a blockchain. At least a portion of the blockchain may then be exchanged to identify the device.

  • Publication number: 20190036922
    Abstract: A call request is received, from a mobile device, to establish a communication with a contact center. For example, the call request may be to establish a voice call with the contact center. In response to the call request, the mobile device sends authentication factors to a cloud authentication service that the user/mobile device has previously registered with. For example, the authentication factors may include usage factors of the mobile device, such as a call history of the user on the mobile device. If the authentication factors are validated, a token is generated. The token is sent to the contact center along with the call request. The token is validated at the contact center. At this point, the contact center knows that the user/mobile device are authentic. A call is then established between the user and the contact center.
