Abstract
There is provided a method, user device (106A) and computer program for transferring a call from a first user device (106A) to a second user device (106B). The call is initially conducted between the first user device (106A) and a third user device (108). The method comprises detecting a user's speech at the first user device (106A) and at the second user device (106B). If the user's speech is detected being as loudest at the second user device (106B) the call is transferred from the first user device (106A) to the second user device (106B) such that the call with the third user device (108) is continued between the second user device (106B) and the third user device (108). The user device (106A) comprises a processor for executing the method.
Claims15
A method of transferring a call from a first user device (106A) to a second user device (106B), the call initially being conducted between the first user device (106A) and a third user device (108), the method comprising:
- detecting a user's speech at the first user device (106A);
- detecting the user's speech at the second user device (106B);
- determining whether the user's speech is detected as loudest at the first user device (106A) or the second user device (106B);
- and
- if the user's speech is detected as loudest at the second user device (106B), causing the call to be transferred from the first user device (106A) to the second user device (106B) such that the call with the third user device (108) is continued between the second user device (106B) and the third user device (108).
A user device (106A) for conducting a call with a third party user device (108), the user device (106A) comprising:
- a microphone;
- a communication interface (202A) configured to establish a local wireless connection (112) with a second user device (106B) and to receive a measurement of the user's speech detected at the second user device (106B) via the wireless connection (112);
- and
- a processor configured to:
- generate a measurement of the user's speech received via the microphone;
- receive a measurement of the user's speech from the second user device (106B);
- and
- if the user's speech is detected as loudest at the second user device (106B), transfer the call to the second user device (106B) to enable the call with the third user device (108) to be continued between second the user device (106B) and the third user device (108).
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising a set of computer-readable instructions stored thereon, which, when executed by a processing system, cause the processing system to carry out a method of transferring a call from a first user device to a second user device, the call initially being conducted between the first user device and a third user device, the method comprising:
- detecting a user's speech at the first user device;
- detecting the user's speech at the second user device;
- determining whether the user's speech is detected as loudest at the first user device or the second user device;
- and
- if the user's speech is detected as loudest at the second user device, causing the call to be transferred from the first user device to the second user device such that that call with the third user device is continued between the second user device and the third user device.
