| 20080242418 | Position-Based Context Awareness for Mobile Terminal Device - The present invention relates to location/position-based context awareness for devices and mobile terminal devices, respectively. In particularly, the present invention relates to an infrastructure entity performing the location/position-based context awareness for a portable terminal device. According to the present invention an infrastructure entity and a method operable therewith for serving distance-dependent context information relating to a defined environment is provided. For instance, terminal/object distances are determined in accordance with a position of a portable terminal, each position of a plurality of objects and a position of an infrastructure entity, which is adapted to serve the aforementioned distance-dependent context information. Context information, which is associated with each of the plurality of object, is provided for being selected. Context information is selected from provided context information on the basis of the determined terminal/object distances. The selected context information is finally transmitted to the portable terminal for being processed thereon. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20080278313 | Methods, Device and System for Sending and Providing Environmental Data - The invention relates to a method for sending environmental data by means of a mobile terminal device, comprising the steps of detecting said environmental data, evaluating said environmental data, determining if said evaluated environmental data is to be sent, and sending said environmental data in case of an affirmative determination. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20080288162 | Combined short range and long range communication for traffic analysis and collision avoidance - A method and system for combining short range communication and long range communication for traffic related applications is presented. In one example, a central server is equipped and configured to receive information via long range communication from one or more individual traffic objects, analyze the received information to determine the short range communication needs, if any, between an identified subset of traffic objects and then initiate short range communication between the traffic objects in the identified subset of traffic objects. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20090264201 | Multi-User Game - A method of controlling a multi-user game, comprising: receiving non-game information concerning the technical capabilities of a first device; and providing game play at the first device, in dependence upon the received non-game information, that compensates for the technical capabilities of the first device. A method of initiating a multi-user game that has a plurality of potential roles, the method comprising: specifying a first sub-set of the plurality potential roles; specifying a second sub-set of the plurality potential roles, that is different to the first sub-set; providing, if a first device has first technical capabilities, the first sub-set of potential roles to the first device; and providing, if a second device has second technical capabilities, different to the first technical capabilities, the second sub-set of potential roles to the second device. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20110029600 | Mobile Telephone for Internet Applications - A control unit for a mobile telephone includes a Web server adapted to connect to a Web browser in the mobile telephone, wherein the Web server receives information and provides the information to the Web browser when connected to the Web browser. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20110060754 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ORGANIZING USER PROVIDED INFORMATION WITH META-INFORMATION - The present invention is directed to a method for organizing user provided information in a mobile terminal device with meta-information to allow retrieval of the user provided information, and a device configured to perform the method. The user provided information is obtained by any user operation against the mobile terminal device and context information is obtained associated with the User provided information. The meta-information is obtained from the context information and assigned to the user provided information. The meta-information is employed for retrieval of the User provided information by matching request information with the meta-information. Further, the method for organizing user provided information employs calendar information for obtaining meta-information. Further, the method for organizing user provided information is adapted to organize user provided audio information. Further, the method for organizing user provided information is adapted to organize User provided audio information by embedding meta-information into the User provided audio information. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20110130156 | Methods, Device and System for Sending and Providing Environmental Data - The invention relates to a method for sending environmental data by means of a mobile terminal device, comprising the the steps of detecting said environmental data, evaluating said environmental data, determining if said evaluated environmental data is to be sent, and sending said environmental data in case of an affirmative determination. | 06-02-2011 |
