Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of video ringback tones, and more particularly to a method, system, and apparatus for pushing video ringback tones. Background Technology

[0002] With the application of Voice over Long-Term Evolution (VoLTE) technology, users not only enjoy clearer voice calls but also more innovative services based on the VoLTE network, such as video ringback tones. Video ringback tones mean that while waiting for a call to connect, the caller not only "hears" an audio message but also "sees" a video; for example, during the call waiting period, the caller can watch a preset video ringback tone.

[0003] In existing technologies, the specific video ringback tone played on the calling terminal is mainly set by the called user. The content primarily consists of video clips or music videos that the called user likes, and is pushed to the calling party when both parties send a call. The calling party cannot independently choose the ringback tone content, which can cause visual fatigue on the calling terminal. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a method, system, and apparatus for pushing video ringback tones, so as to solve the limitations of existing video ringback tones.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this specification is implemented as follows:

[0006] Firstly, a method for pushing video ringback tones is provided, applied to a server, including:

[0010] The system pushes video ringback tones generated based on the aforementioned lifestyle-related information to the calling user.

[0011] Secondly, a method for pushing video ringback tones is provided, applied to terminal devices, including:

[0012] In response to the first collection instruction issued by the server to users in the service group who have activated the target video ringback tone service, the current status information of the user corresponding to the terminal device is collected and sent to the server. The current status information includes a combination of the user's current time and current location.

[0013] In response to the second collection instruction sent by the server, collect the user's life-related information corresponding to the current status information and send it to the server;

[0014] The server receives feedback information, wherein the feedback information is determined by the server based on feedback from video ringback tones generated based on the user's life-related information.

[0015] Thirdly, a video ringback tone push system is provided, characterized by including a server and terminal devices.

[0016] The server collects life-related information for each user in the service group that has activated the target video ringback tone service under various life states; monitors calls from users in the service group; obtains life-related information corresponding to the life state of the calling user; and pushes video ringback tones generated based on the life-related information to the calling user.

[0017] The terminal device collects relevant life information of the corresponding user in response to the collection instructions from the server.

[0018] Fourthly, a video ringback tone push device is provided, including a memory and a processor electrically connected to the memory, the memory storing a computer program executable by the processor, the computer program, when executed by the processor, implementing the steps of the method described in the first or second aspect.

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. The drawing numbers in this application are only used to distinguish the various steps in the solution and are not used to limit the execution order of the various steps. The specific execution order is subject to the description in the specification.

[0027] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this application provides a method for pushing video ringback tones, in which the method is applied to a server.

[0028] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the video ringback tone push method according to the first embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:

[0029] Step 102: Collect life-related information of each user in the service group who have activated the target video ringback tone service under various life statuses;

[0030] Step 104: Monitor user calls within the service group;

[0031] Step 106: Obtain life-related information corresponding to the life status of the user being called;

[0032] Step 108: Push a video ringback tone generated based on the life-related information to the calling user.

[0033] Each user in the service group is a user who has activated a certain video ringback tone service. Users in this service group can be provided with the corresponding video ringback tone service. In this embodiment of the application, the target video ringback tone service is to provide video ringback tones that are related to life-related information about the user's life status.

[0034] Life-related information pertains to a user across various life states, including information related to different times and locations. This information is connected to the user's daily life, such as information about the food in their smart refrigerator, the parameters of their smart air conditioner, and the programs playing on their smart TV.

[0035] Before obtaining the life-related information of each user in the service group that has activated the target video ringback tone service under multiple life states, the method further includes: in response to the activation request sent by the target user, activating the target video ringback tone service for the target user and establishing a service group corresponding to the target video ringback tone service; in response to the request of the target user to invite other users to join the service group, activating the target video ringback tone service for other users.

[0036] The target users can be those applying for the target video ringback tone service for the first time. For example, users can log in to the server's video ringback tone platform by dialing a specific number and apply for the video ringback tone family life service function. Upon receiving the application, the server activates the corresponding video ringback tone life service function for the target user and creates a corresponding video ringback tone family life service group. The user can add family members' phone numbers to this service group and invite them to join. The server can then simultaneously activate the video ringback tone life service for all family members who have joined the group.

[0037] In practice, users can activate the video ringback tone family life service through a browser, WeChat official account, mini-program, or by calling the operator's customer service hotline. They can then invite other family members to join the video ringback tone family life service group by entering their phone numbers. Additionally, to prevent unauthorized activation, the video ringback tone server can require users to enter a security verification code to authenticate their identity during service activation.

[0038] After the video ringback tone server verifies the user's identity, it will send a confirmation message to the mobile phone numbers of other members invited to join the group. This confirmation message includes the group creator's name, the creator's phone number, and the names of other invited group members. Group members can confirm whether to join the group by replying to the SMS message.

[0039] Based on the solution provided in the above embodiments, optionally, in step 102 above, collecting life-related information corresponding to multiple life states of each user in the service group that has activated the target video ringback tone service includes: sending a first collection instruction to the terminal devices of each user in the service group; receiving the current status information of each user collected by each terminal device in response to the first collection instruction, wherein the current status information includes a combination of the user's current time and current location; if the current status information meets preset conditions, sending a second collection instruction to the terminal devices of each user in the service group whose current status information meets preset conditions; and receiving the user's life-related information corresponding to the current status information collected by each terminal device in response to the second collection instruction.

[0040] After the service is activated, the server's video ringback tone platform will send data collection instructions to the terminal devices corresponding to each user in the video ringback tone family life service group, so that these terminal devices can collect the current status information of the corresponding users at preset time intervals.

[0041] In one implementation, the user's current status information to be collected by the terminal device includes the user's current location information. For example, the user's home address or work address. The terminal device can send the collected current location to the server. The server, based on the pre-saved location information of the user, determines whether the user's current location meets preset location conditions, such as the location being a home address or work address. If the current location is a home address or work address, then the server collects user-related life information. If the determination result is negative, the terminal device continues to repeatedly execute the user's current status information collection steps.

[0042] When the judgment result is yes, the server will instruct the terminal device to collect life-related information for the corresponding location. For example, when the user is at home, the terminal device will be instructed to establish a communication connection with the smart refrigerator through the home local area gateway to obtain information about the food items already inside the smart refrigerator and upload this information as life-related information to the server's video ringback tone platform. Alternatively, it can connect to the smart air conditioner to obtain the current adjustment parameters of the smart air conditioner from the smart space, including the air conditioning mode, temperature, humidity, etc.

[0043] Alternatively, in one implementation, the current location data collected by the terminal device can be determined by the terminal device based on the user's pre-saved location information to determine whether the user's current location meets preset location conditions. When the determination result is yes, the user terminal automatically establishes a communication connection with the smart refrigerator or smart air conditioner through the home local area gateway to collect user-related life information from the corresponding smart device and upload it to the video ringback tone platform.

[0044] In step 104, the video ringback tone platform will further monitor the calls of each user in the group.

[0045] In step 106, optionally, obtaining life-related information corresponding to the life status of the calling user includes: if the first user of the calling party is a user within the service group, obtaining the calling location of the first user; and obtaining the life-related information of the first user corresponding to the calling location from the collected life-related information.

[0046] Correspondingly, in step 108, pushing a video ringback tone generated based on the life-related information to the calling user includes: generating a video ringback tone based on the life-related information of the first user; and pushing the video ringback tone to the second user who is calling the other party.

[0047] In step 106, optionally, obtaining life-related information corresponding to the life status of the calling user includes: if the first user of the calling party is a user within the service group, obtaining the calling location and calling time of the first user; and obtaining the life-related information of the first user corresponding to the calling location and calling time from the collected life-related information.

[0048] Correspondingly, in step 108, pushing a video ringback tone generated based on the life-related information to the calling user includes: generating a video ringback tone based on the life-related information of the first user; and pushing the video ringback tone to the second user who is calling the other party.

[0049] In step 106, optionally, obtaining life-related information corresponding to the life status of the calling user includes: if both users in the call are users within the service group, obtaining the calling location and calling time of the calling user; and obtaining the life-related information of the calling user corresponding to the calling location and calling time from the collected life-related information.

[0050] Correspondingly, in step 108, pushing a video ringback tone generated based on the life-related information to the calling user includes: generating a video ringback tone based on the life-related information of the calling user; and pushing the video ringback tone to the calling user.

[0051] In addition to obtaining the life-related information of the caller, the system can also obtain the life-related information of the callee and generate a video ringback tone based on the life-related information of the callee, and push the video ringback tone to the caller.

[0052] Alternatively, the server can simultaneously push the video ringback tone to both calling parties.

[0053] When a user in the monitoring group makes a call, the video ringback tone platform will further obtain the current calling location and current calling time of the calling user. Based on the current calling location and / or current calling time of the calling user, the platform will obtain the corresponding life-related information for the location and / or time from the life-related information uploaded by the user's terminal device.

[0054] The video ringback tone platform will further monitor calls from users in the group. When a call is detected from a user in the group, the platform will obtain the caller's current location and time. Based on the caller's current location, call time, and pre-uploaded lifestyle information, the platform will determine the content and playback method of the video ringback tone.

[0055] The following is an example where both users in a call are users within a service group: When the video ringback tone platform determines that one of the calling users, user A (who can be either the caller or the called user), is currently at home and the current time is a specific moment, the video ringback tone platform can generate a recipe video ringback tone based on the received food information from the smart refrigerator, and send it to the terminal device of another user, user B, for playback via the caller's video ringback tone (or the called user's video ringback tone).

[0056] Suppose user A, a member of the video ringback tone family life service group, initiates a call to user B in the same group. After listening to the call, the video ringback tone platform can determine the current location of both parties based on base station positioning (or GPS positioning). Assuming user A is at home and user B is at work, and the current time is 5:00 PM, the video ringback tone platform can generate a recipe video ringback tone based on the family food information uploaded by user A. For example, the video ringback tone could be: "How about we have mushrooms and bok choy, salt-baked chicken, and rice for dinner?" This generated video ringback tone is then sent to the called user B's device as a caller's video ringback tone. If the user at home is the called user, the video ringback tone platform will send the generated recipe video ringback tone to the caller's device as a called user's video ringback tone.

[0057] In one embodiment, the method further includes: receiving first feedback information from the calling user whose video ringback tone is being pushed to the video ringback tone; generating second feedback information based on the first feedback information and the life-related information corresponding to the video ringback tone; and sending the second feedback information to the calling user on the other end.

[0058] In this embodiment, the calling user who receives the video ringback tone push message can provide feedback on the received video ringback tone, and the feedback information can be sent to the other calling user through the server.

[0059] Taking the video ringback tone received by user B as an example, after user B watches the video ringback tone displayed on the terminal device, he / she can provide feedback based on the content displayed by the video ringback tone. The video ringback tone platform can generate recipe information based on the received feedback information and send it to user A's terminal device after the call ends.

[0060] When a video ringback tone is played on User B's device, a feedback button is simultaneously displayed on the playback interface, allowing User B to provide feedback on the currently playing ringback tone. For example, the playback interface displays a generated recipe ringback tone and various feedback buttons. User B can select the feedback button "Want to eat" for the recipe "Mushrooms, Bok Choy, and Salt-baked Chicken," and the feedback button "Replace" for the recipe "Rice," further selecting "Roasted Sweet Potato" as the replacement recipe. User B's device can then upload the user's feedback information to the video ringback tone platform.

[0061] The video ringback tone platform compares user B's feedback with the ingredient information previously received from user A. It identifies the ingredient that differs from the feedback (e.g., sweet potato in the previous example). Based on this difference and the feedback, it generates a recipe, which may include a purchase link for the corresponding ingredient. After determining that the call between user A and user B has ended, the platform sends the recipe to user A's device. Upon receiving the recipe, user A can then purchase the ingredient by clicking the purchase link.

[0062] In another embodiment, this application also provides a video-based ringback tone push method, applied to a terminal device. For example... Figure 2 As shown, it includes:

[0063] Step 202: In response to the first collection instruction issued by the server to users in the service group who have activated the target video ringback tone service, the current status information of the user corresponding to the terminal device is collected and sent to the server. The current status information includes a combination of the user's current time and current location.

[0064] Step 204: In response to the second collection instruction sent by the server, collect the user's life-related information corresponding to the current status information and send it to the server;

[0065] Step 206: Receive feedback information sent by the server, wherein the feedback information is determined by the server based on the feedback of the video ringback tone generated by the server based on the user's life-related information.

[0066] In yet another embodiment, this application also provides a video ringback tone push system. Figure 3 This is a structural block diagram of the video ringback tone push system according to an embodiment of this application.

[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, the video ringback tone push system 1000 includes a server 1200 and a terminal device 1400.

[0068] The server 1200 collects life-related information of each user in the service group that has activated the target video ringback tone service under various life states; monitors the calls of users in the service group; obtains life-related information corresponding to the life state of the calling user; and pushes video ringback tones generated based on the life-related information to the calling user.
