Abstract
Sessions in progress are seamlessly moved between devices of a software platform. Proximity-based session handovers are performed between devices of the software platform utilizing short range signals. The short range signals include a frequency signature. The frequency signature is associated with a vehicle. A handover a session in progress from a mobile device to the vehicle is performed based on the detection of a short range signal.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- detecting a short range signal at a mobile device, wherein the short range signal includes a frequency signature of an infotainment device integrated with a vehicle comprising an in-vehicle internet source;
- determining, by the mobile device, that the vehicle is in motion based on a detection of a termination of the short range signal at the infotainment device;
- displaying, on the mobile device when the vehicle is in motion, a request to confirm a handover of a video conference in progress, the video conference having an audio component and a video component;
- responsive to receiving a confirmation, performing, by the mobile device, the handover of the audio component of the video conference to the infotainment device;
- transmitting an instruction to the infotainment device that indicates to the infotainment device to continue the audio component of the video conference using the in-vehicle internet source and to terminate the video component of the video conference at the infotainment device based on the detection of the termination of the short range signal by the mobile device;
- and
- terminating the audio component and the video component of the video conference at the mobile device.
A system comprising:
- an infotainment device integrated with a vehicle comprising an in-vehicle internet source, the infotainment device configured to transmit a short range signal;
- a mobile device configured to:
- detect the short range signal, wherein the short range signal includes a frequency signature of the infotainment device;
- determine that the vehicle is in motion based on a detection of a termination of the short range signal from the infotainment device;
- display a request to confirm a handover of a video conference in progress to the infotainment device when the vehicle is in motion, the video conference having an audio component and a video component;
- perform the handover of the audio component of the video conference to the infotainment device responsive to a confirmation response;
- transmit an instruction to the infotainment device that indicates to the infotainment device to continue the audio component of the video conference using the in-vehicle internet source and to terminate the video component of the video conference at the infotainment device based on the detection of the termination of the short range signal;
- and
- terminate the audio component and the video component of the video conference at the mobile device,
- wherein the infotainment device is further configured to continue the audio component of the video conference using the in-vehicle internet source and to terminate the video component of the video conference based on the detection of the termination of the short range signal.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- detecting a short range signal at a mobile device, wherein the short range signal includes a frequency signature of an infotainment device of a vehicle;
- determining, by the mobile device, that the vehicle is in motion based on a detection of a termination of the short range signal from the infotainment device;
- displaying a request to confirm a handover of a video conference in progress from the mobile device to the infotainment device when the vehicle is in motion, the video conference having an audio component and a video component;
- performing, by the mobile device, the handover of the audio component of the video conference to the infotainment device responsive to a confirmation response;
- transmitting an instruction to the infotainment device that indicates to the infotainment device to continue the audio component of the video conference using an in-vehicled internet source and to terminate the video component of the video conference at the infotainment device based on the detection of the termination of the short range signal by the mobile device;
- and
- terminating the audio component and the video component of the video conference at the mobile device.
