Abstract: One provides (101) a captured image of a real-world setting that comprises both target content and at least one visual distraction. One also provides (102), via a display, information regarding selectable elements of the captured image as a function of the relative positions (such as relative depth) of the selectable elements with respect to one another. An end user (via an end-user interface) can select (103) at least one visual distraction as a selected element. Additional image content from the real-world setting can then be accumulated (105) for a portion of the target content as corresponds to the selected element. This additional image content is then aggregated (106) with previously obtained image content for the target content to facilitate the provision of an image of the real-world setting that comprises the target content in the absence of the at least one visual distraction.

Abstract: A system and method of providing communication with a wireless mobile terminal in a wireless communications network having a plurality of wireless communications systems. The method includes sending the mobile terminal's MEC between the wireless communications systems in all intersystem messages that contain the MIN for wireless mobile terminal identifiers. This guarantees the successful termination in the system that uses MECs that can support international roaming. The method also includes collecting wireless mobile terminal MECs and correcting incorrect MECs. The system is a wireless communications network for providing communications for a wireless mobile terminal.

Abstract: The invention provides systems, including a methods and apparatus, for providing seamless telephone service across MSC's that support multiple or different protocols. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, the home mobile switching center, where the subscriber record is stored, is equipped to respond to a first inquiry signal from an originating mobile switching center by identifying itself to the originating mobile switching center. The incoming call may then be trunked to the home mobile switching center and forwarded to the visited mobile switching center according to the second protocol. According to another preferred embodiment, in response to the first inquiry signal, the home mobile switching center sends a second inquiry signal to the visited mobile switching center. The first inquiry signal represents a request for an identification number identifying, in the first protocol, the visited mobile switching center.
