CONVERSION OF MESSAGES INTO AUDIO FORMAT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240028436 titled 'CONVERSION OF MESSAGES INTO AUDIO FORMAT
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus that can process messages related to the management of information technology assets in an IT infrastructure. The apparatus determines whether a given message is suitable for delivery in an audio format based on its content. If the message is suitable, the apparatus converts the content into one or more audio messages. It also selects audio output devices for delivering the audio messages and provides them to the selected devices.
- The apparatus processes messages related to managing IT assets in an IT infrastructure.
- It determines if a message is suitable for audio delivery based on its content.
- If suitable, the content of the message is converted into audio messages.
- Audio output devices are selected for delivering the audio messages.
- The audio messages are provided to the selected audio output devices.
Potential Applications:
- Enhancing accessibility by converting text-based messages into audio format.
- Streamlining communication by delivering important messages through audio channels.
- Facilitating multitasking by allowing users to listen to messages instead of reading them.
Problems Solved:
- Overcoming limitations for individuals with visual impairments who may struggle with reading text-based messages.
- Addressing situations where reading messages is not feasible or convenient, such as while driving or performing tasks that require visual focus.
- Improving efficiency by providing an alternative delivery method for messages that can be consumed through audio.
Benefits:
- Increased accessibility and inclusivity for individuals with visual impairments.
- Improved convenience and safety by allowing users to listen to messages hands-free.
- Enhanced multitasking capabilities by enabling users to consume messages while engaged in other activities.
Original Abstract Submitted
an apparatus comprises a processing device configured to obtain one or more messages, the one or more messages being associated with management of a given one of one or more information technology assets in an information technology infrastructure, and to determine, based at least in part on content of a given one of the one or more messages, whether the given message is suitable for delivery in an audio format. the processing device is also configured, responsive to determining that the given message is suitable for delivery in the audio format, to convert the content of the given message into one or more audio messages. the processing device is further configured to select one or more audio output devices for delivery of the one or more audio messages, and to provide, to the selected one or more audio output devices, the one or more audio messages.
