  • Patent number: 10616730
    Abstract: An approach is provided for using one or more identification parameters of terminals associated with a communication session to initiate another communication session among the terminals. A communication platform determines one or more identification parameters associated with one or more terminals participating in at least one communication session. The communication platform further causes, at least in part, an initiation of at least one other communication session among the one or more terminals based, at least in part, on the one or more identification parameters.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 20, 2017
    Date of Patent: April 7, 2020
    Assignee: Nokia Technologies Oy

  • Patent number: 9501183
    Abstract: There are disclosed a method, apparatuses and a computer program product for sensing a movement of an object in proximity of a sensing panel. In some embodiments of the method proximity data indicative of existence of one or more pointing objects in proximity of a sensing panel is formed. It is also determined from the proximity data whether at least one of the pointing objects touches the sensing panel. If the determining indicates at least one touch of at least one pointing object, it is determined if a probability that movement of one or more of the pointing objects in proximity of the sensing panel illustrates a predetermined gesture. The probability is compared to a predetermined threshold; and a touch event is sent, if the probability is less than the predetermined threshold.
