Caller ID Audio Prompting During Active Calls
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for handling call waiting notifications during active calls on mobile devices are inefficient, as users often miss important information due to the delay between ending a call and accessing the screen to read caller details, leading to prolonged information acquisition times.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that receive a calling request during an active call, inquire user information from a local contact list, and convert it into audio data for immediate playback through the speaker, allowing users to access caller information without putting down their phone, thereby enhancing information acquisition efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If the screen is lit up to display caller information after the user puts down the mobile phone, then the user can read the user information of the calling request, but the time period from putting down the phone to reading the information is prolonged, resulting in the user missing important parts of the current call
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the visual display mechanism (screen) with an acoustic mechanism (speaker) for delivering caller information. The speaker outputs audio data containing the calling user's information, allowing users to obtain caller details through sound without needing to visually check the screen, thus significantly reducing information acquisition time and preventing loss of important call content.
2Ease of operation
If the user puts down the mobile phone to read the caller information on the screen, then the user can access the caller details, but the user may miss important parts of the current call
Solution Approach 1:
The patent substitutes the visual information delivery system with an acoustic information delivery system. The speaker plays audio data containing caller information during the call, enabling users to access caller details without taking their hands off the phone or diverting visual attention from the screen, thus eliminating the trade-off between accessing information and missing call content.
3Object-generated harmful factors
If the speaker emits a prompting beep during the call, then the user is notified of the calling request, but the user information cannot be effectively communicated to the user
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the parameter of information delivery from simple acoustic notification (beep sound) to structured audio data containing encoded caller information. The speaker outputs audio data that has been transformed from the calling user's stored information, enabling effective communication of caller identification details through sound rather than just a generic beep notification.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a method for prompting a calling request and a device for the same, which belong to the field of electronic technology. The method includes: receiving (101) a calling request from a second terminal during a call with a first terminal, the calling request carrying a communication identification of the second terminal; inquiring (102) first user information corresponding to the communication identification of the second terminal in a contact list stored in local; and determining (103) corresponding first audio data through audio transformation according to the first user information, and playing the first audio data. Through the present disclosure, efficiency in acquiring information may be improved.
