ROLE ASSIGNMENT FOR INTELLIGENT VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17933135 titled 'ROLE ASSIGNMENT FOR INTELLIGENT VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the abstract involves delegating role assignments to users in a cluster with multiple devices, based on authorization from an authorized user. The users can then interact with an intelligent virtual assistant using audio commands, with authorization determined by their assigned roles.
- Cluster of users with multiple devices
- Delegating role assignments based on authorization
- Interacting with intelligent virtual assistant using audio commands
- Authorization based on assigned roles
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in smart home systems, where multiple users share access to various devices and need to delegate control based on permissions.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of managing access and control within a cluster of users with multiple devices, ensuring that only authorized users can interact with the intelligent virtual assistant.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include enhanced security and privacy, as well as improved user experience by allowing seamless interaction with the intelligent virtual assistant.
Potential Commercial Applications
One potential commercial application of this technology could be in the development of smart home systems or office environments where multiple users need to interact with devices and delegate control based on permissions.
Possible Prior Art
Prior art in this field may include existing systems for user authentication and access control in smart home or office environments, as well as technologies related to intelligent virtual assistants and voice recognition.
=== What are the specific devices mentioned in the cluster of users with multiple devices? The abstract does not specify the specific devices mentioned in the cluster of users with multiple devices.
=== How does the method ensure the security of audio commands provided by users? The abstract does not detail the specific security measures implemented to ensure the security of audio commands provided by users.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method includes identifying a cluster of users with a plurality of devices, where each user from the cluster of users is associated with at least one device from the plurality of devices. The method also includes identifying an authorized user from the cluster of users to delegate role assignments to a remaining portion of the cluster of users and receiving, from the authorized user, a first role assignment for a first user from the remaining portion of the cluster of users. In response to receiving, from the first user, an audio command, the method also includes determining whether the first user is authorized to provide the audio command to the intelligent virtual assistant based on the first role assignment. In response to determining the first user is authorized to provide the audio command, the method also includes performing the audio command from the first user.
