Query based volume determination

摘要

An approach, carried out by one or more processors, for providing volume information to communication devices. The approach may further comprise receiving a query for a set of volume information for a first communication device. The volume information includes at least a volume range for audible communicating. The approach may further comprise determining if a second communication device is in a vicinity of the first communication device. Responsive to determining the second communication device is in the vicinity of the first communication device, the approach may further comprise determining a first location and a second location for the respective first communication device and second communication device. The approach may further comprise determining the set of volume information for the first communication device based on at least the second location of the second communication device.

1. A method for providing volume information to communication devices, the method comprising:
receiving, by one or more processors on a server computer, an indication from a first communication device of a first user to send volume information to other communication devices in a vicinity; responsive to determining a second user with a second communication device is in the vicinity of the first communication device, determining, by one or more processors on the server computer, a first location for the first communication device; determining, by one or more processors on the server computer, a first set of volume information for the second communication device based on at least the first location of the first communication device, wherein the first set of volume information includes a volume range for the second user audibly communicating for which the first user will not hear the second user; and sending, by one or more processors on the server computer, the first set of volume information to the second communication device.
