Filed:

Jul 13, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/777495

Inventors:

Andrew Jonathan Braun - Cary NC, US

Assignee:

SONY ERICSSON MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS AB - Lund

International Classification:

H04H 1/00

US Classification:

455 301

Abstract:

According to teachings presented herein, a system and method enhance live events by providing coordinated content delivery to mobile device subscribers physically present at the live event. As a non-limiting example, a system is configured to feed any one or more of replay video, alternate or zoom camera angles, and supporting information for the event, such as interesting data on event participants, e.g., player statistics, etc. Accordingly, one embodiment of a method of delivering location-based event content to a mobile station comprises determining that the mobile station is physically present at an event venue, identifying desired types of event feeds for the mobile station for a live event at the event venue, and dynamically delivering one or more event feeds of the desired types to the mobile station. A system for supporting the method may be implemented in whole or in part in a cellular communication network.

International Classification:

G06F 9/54
G06Q 10/10
G10L 15/26
G10L 15/22
G10L 15/18

Abstract:

Devices and systems supporting more than one Virtual Assistant (VA) are able to initiate and collaborate with multiple virtual assistants within the same session and at the same time. This system allows application specific virtual assistants to register and listen for intents from a general purpose virtual assistant. When the general purpose virtual assistant raises an intent, control can be passed to an interested application specific virtual assistant for handling. The system of registering new intents increases the knowledge of the general purpose virtual assistant, or overloads the handling of an existing intent.
