Dynamic scrolling-ticker for initiating telecommunications services
A system and method for initiating communications between a first wireless device and a second wireless device. The method includes the steps of detecting the status of the first wireless device, notifying the second wireless device via a scrolling ticker message based on the detecting step and establishing a communication session between the first and second wireless devices. The detecting step includes generating an alert based on a predefined event. The system for establishing a communication path between a first mobile device and a second mobile device includes an IMS core, a presence server communicatively coupled to the IMS core and in communication with the first mobile device, a scrolling ticker server in communication with the presence server and with the second mobile device, wherein the presence server communicates availability of the first mobile device and the scrolling ticker notifies the second mobile device of the availability of the first mobile device.
1. A method comprising:
registering a first wireless device with an IP Multimedia Subsystem core and a presence server;
attempting to establish a peer to peer communication session between the first wireless device that supports ticker technology configured to receive content streams from a ticker server configured as an IP Multimedia Subsystem application server and a second wireless device;
receiving a communication from the presence server through an ISC interface between the presence server and the ticker server that the second wireless device is presently unavailable to establish the peer to peer communication session;
selecting an option to have a ticker message streamed to the first wireless device when the second wireless device becomes available;
when the second wireless device becomes available at a future point in time, receiving the ticker message from the ticker server on the first wireless device wherein the ticker message includes an indication that the second wireless device has become available, and wherein the ticker message includes an embedded pointer which, if selected by a subscriber associated with the first wireless device, offers a one-click invocation of the peer to peer session between the first wireless device and the second wireless device;
displaying the ticker message on a display screen in the first wireless device;
selecting the embedded pointer on the ticker message; and
establishing the peer to peer communication session with the second wireless device in response to selecting the embedded pointer on the ticker message.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the ticker message is based on a predefined event.
3. The method of claim 1 wherein the ticker message comprises a text stream based on a set of user-defined alerts.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein the ticker message comprises an automatic generation of a call back signal upon receipt of the ticker message.
5. The method of claim 3 wherein the text stream based on a set of user-defined alerts comprises the text stream selected from among a group comprising stock information, sports information, news information, and weather information.
6. The method of claim 1 wherein the ticker message comprises a really simple syndication (RSS) communication protocol.
7. A wireless device that supports ticker technology, the wireless device comprising:
a processor; and
memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to effectuate operations comprising:
registering a first wireless device with an IP Multimedia Subsystem core and a presence server;
attempting to establish a peer to peer communication session between the first wireless device that supports ticker technology configured to receive content streams from a ticker server configured as an IP Multimedia Subsystem application server and a second wireless device;
receiving a communication from the presence server through an ISC interface between the presence server and the ticker server that the second wireless device is presently unavailable to establish the peer to peer communication session;
selecting an option to have a ticker message streamed to the wireless device when the second wireless device becomes available;
receiving on the first wireless device the ticker message from the ticker server, wherein the ticker message includes an indication that the second wireless device has become available, and wherein the ticker message includes an embedded pointer which, if selected by a subscriber associated with the wireless device, offers a one-click invocation of the peer to peer session between the wireless device and the second wireless device;
displaying the ticker message on a display screen in the first wireless device;
selecting the embedded pointer on the ticker message; and
establishing the peer to peer communication session with the second wireless device in response to selecting the embedded pointer on the ticker message.
8. The wireless device of claim 7 wherein the ticker message is based on a predefined event.
9. The wireless device of claim 7 wherein the ticker message comprises a text stream based on a set of user-defined alerts.
10. The wireless device of claim 7 wherein the ticker message comprises an automatic generation of a call back signal upon receipt of the ticker message.
11. The wireless device of claim 9 wherein the text stream based on a set of user-defined alerts comprises the text stream selected from among a group comprising stock information, sports information, news information, and weather information.
12. The wireless device of claim 7 wherein the ticker message comprises a really simple syndication (RSS) communication protocol.
13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program to effectuate operations comprising:
registering a first wireless device with an IP Multimedia Subsystem core and a presence server;
attempting to establish a peer to peer communication session between a first wireless device that supports ticker technology configured to receive content streams from a ticker server configured as an IP Multimedia Subsystem application server and a second wireless device;
receiving a communication from the presence server through an ISC interface between the presence server and the ticker server that the second wireless device is presently unavailable to establish the peer to peer communication session;
selecting an option to have a ticker message streamed to the first wireless device when the second wireless device becomes available;
receiving the ticker message from a ticker server on the first wireless device wherein said the ticker message includes an indication that the second wireless device has become available, and wherein the ticker message includes an embedded pointer which, if selected by a subscriber associated with the first wireless device, offers a one-click invocation of the peer to peer session between the first wireless device and the second wireless device;
displaying the ticker message on a display screen in the first wireless device;
selecting the embedded pointer on the ticker message; and
establishing the peer to peer communication session with the second wireless device in response to selecting the embedded pointer on the ticker message.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 wherein the ticker message is based on a predefined event.
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 wherein the ticker message comprises a text stream based on a set of user-defined alerts.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 the ticker message comprises an automatic generation of a call back signal upon receipt of the ticker message.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 wherein the text stream based on a set of user-defined alerts comprises one selected from among a group comprising stock information, sports information, news information, and weather information.
