Patent number: 9089772Abstract: Methods and systems establish games with automation using verbal communication for exchanges between the automated game and the one or more game players. Game information data is converted into verbal information that is provided to the individual. The individual provides verbal instruction which is received and converted into the instruction data. The instruction data is applied to the current game to update the current game status. Information data for the current game status is converted to verbal information for the current game status which is provided to the individual. The game may be implemented on a local device of the individual or may be network-based and accessed remotely by the individual through verbal communication over a voice connection. The voice connection may be of various forms such as a conventional voiced call to a voice services node of a telephone network or a voice-over IP voiced call on a data network.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2007Date of Patent: July 28, 2015Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Dave Anderson, Senis Busayapongchai

Patent number: 8626759Abstract: A method and system for searching an information retrieval system for items of interest that are in proximity to geographical locations provided by the user. The information retrieval system can perform a search for specified types of businesses or items of interest that surround or are in close proximity to the user's present geographical location, or a geographical location that the user has pre-configured in a database. The system receives geographical location information concerning the user's position from the wireless network carrier, which tracks the location of the user's mobile communications device. When the user desires to store a geographical location and geographical name for a future search, the information is entered into the pre-configured database. When conducting an information search at a later time, the user can narrow a search request to a geographical area in the vicinity of the stored geographical location.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2008Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Propert I, L.P.Inventors: David J.

Patent number: 8068585Abstract: Systems and methods for checking broadband network components are provided in which an automated interactive system permits a field technician to check various conditions of a communication line or other broadband network components without the assistance of a support technician. While options to request assistance from a support technician are provided, the automated interactive system permits the field technician to perform various functions on a communication line without additional assistance, especially for routine tasks. The automated interactive system, therefore, removes efficiencies that may be associated with conventional approaches for checking broadband network components.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2008Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Scott Traynham Stillman, Scott Crandall Holt, Kenneth Wayne Chastain, Hong Thi Nguyen, Senis Busayapongchai, Lisa Marie Birkenberger, Judson Barry Johnston, Eric Duron, Diana N.

Patent number: 7577568Abstract: Methods and systems for automating the assembly or creation of audio files for providing to listeners or for use in voice interactive services are provided. A voice application script is prepared and text associated with a desired audio file statement is inserted in the voice application in place of an audio file name. A recording manager software program passes the voice application script to an Extensible Markup Language (XML) parser that locates audio file tags in the voice application script. The XML parser extracts voice properties, if any, for each found audio tag, such as age and gender properties. The XML parser extracts the text string, and the recording manager software module passes the text string and associated properties in a database query to an audio file recording library database for locating an audio file matching the text string and properties.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2003Date of Patent: August 18, 2009Assignee: AT&T Intellctual Property II, L.P.Inventors: Senis Busayapongchai, Pichet Chintrakulchai

Patent number: 7386540Abstract: An information retrieval system is described that dynamically prioritizes search request results prior to output to a user. When a database search yields multiple hits, the results are first categorized into a series of groups. Categories are determined from any number of different factors, such as geographical locations of the search results, amenities, hours of operation, etc. For each category, the search results can be parsed into groups within the category. The results are first reported to the user in general terms, as a number of search results in each of the groups. The user is prompted to select the group that is of most interest, and the portion of the individual search results that are within the selected group are reported.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2003Date of Patent: June 10, 2008Assignee: AT&T Delaware Intellectual Property, Inc.Inventors: David J.
