Interactive combination of game data and call setup

摘要

A solution is provided to enhanced user experience in digital media content sharing by inactively combining call setup for a video call with a caller's game performance data. A first communication terminal is used by the caller to initiate a video call to a callee, who uses a second communication terminal to receive the call. The caller plays a computer game while waiting for the call setup. During the call setup, the first terminal periodically evaluates the caller's game performance and generates a ring tone adjustment instruction that modifies an original ring tone played by the callee's communication terminal. The adjusted ring tone indicates caller's emotions. Integrating a caller's game performance data with a video call setup makes the call setup more joyful for the parties and conveys valuable psychotherapeutic value in the video communication between the parties.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for interactively combining call setup and game data, the method comprising:
initiating, by a first communication terminal, a video call between the first communication terminal and a second communication terminal; identifying a ring tone file to be played by the second communication terminal for receiving calls at the second communication terminal; evaluating game performance of a user of the first communication terminal for a computer game played by the user on the first communication terminal during call setup; generating a ring tone adjustment instruction based on the game performance of the user of the first communication terminal during the call setup, the ring tone adjustment instruction indicating at least one modification to a ring tone associated with the identified ring tone file to be played by the second communication terminal; and transmitting overall game performance data of the user of the first communication terminal to the second communication terminal for display.
