Point-to-Point Ad Hoc Voice Communication - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240237094 titled 'Point-to-Point Ad Hoc Voice Communication
The abstract describes a wireless communication device that enables voice communication between a supported user and a selected remote device supporting another user through a point-to-point wireless ad hoc network link. The device selects a specific remote device, establishes a network link with it, and facilitates voice communication signals between the two devices. The selection process can be based on user interaction with the device, which may involve specifying the desired remote device through a graphical user interface or an audio command received via an audio interface. The device may include multiple headset devices, including a pair that can switch between providing audio signals to a single user or supporting communication between separate users via the ad hoc network link.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the device prioritize selecting a remote device for communication? The device may prioritize selection based on user input or predefined settings to ensure efficient communication. 2. Can the device support communication between multiple users simultaneously? Yes, the device can support communication between multiple users by establishing an ad hoc network link and distributing audio signals accordingly.
Original Abstract Submitted
a wireless communication device establishes voice communication between a supported user and a selected remote device supporting another user via a point-to-point wireless ad hoc network link. the device selects a particular remote device, establishes an ad hoc network link with the selected remote device, and communicates voice communication signals with the selected remote device. selection can be based upon a user interaction with the device which specifies the particular remote device. the user interaction can include interaction with a graphical representation of the particular remote device presented in a graphical user interface. the user interaction can include an audio command received via an audio interface of the device. the device can include one or more headset devices, including a pair of headset devices which can be switched between providing audio signals to a single user to supporting communication between separate users via an ad hoc network link.
