  • Automated initiation of a computer-based video conference using a mobile phone telephony session
    Patent number: 8294747
    Abstract: Techniques are described for initiating a video conference between two video conferencing devices by leveraging information obtained from two mobile phones that are engaged in a mobile phone session with one another and are each associated with a respective one of the video conferencing devices. A video conferencing device may obtain the information, including the telephone numbers for both mobile phones, using a Bluetooth connection between the mobile phone and the video conferencing device. A data center receives and maintains the mobile phone session information, determines whether each mobile phone engaged in the mobile phone session is associated with an available video conferencing device, and, if so, invites the associated video conferencing devices to initiate a video conference with one another.
