Digital assistant water mark
A method and apparatus for providing a watermark within an audible virtual partner transmission is provided herein. During operation, each officer's digital partner will have a uniquely-identifiable watermark embedded within any audible transmission associated with the digital partner.
1. An apparatus comprising:
a database comprising a plurality of electronic digital assistant identifications and a plurality of watermarks;
logic circuitry accessing the database and mapping a particular electronic digital assistant to a particular watermark; and
transmission circuitry transmitting a virtual-partner communication from the particular electronic digital assistant to an officer, wherein the communication has the particular watermark embedded within the communication;
wherein the particular electronic digital assistant comprises software applications running on underlying electronic hardware that are capable of understanding natural language, and can complete electronic tasks in response to user voice inputs, among other additional or alternative types of inputs.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the particular watermark comprises a sub-audible tone.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the particular watermark uniquely identifies the particular electronic digital assistant.
4. An apparatus comprising:
a database comprising a plurality of electronic digital assistant identifications, a plurality of officer identifications, and a plurality of watermarks;
logic circuitry accessing the database and mapping a particular electronic digital assistant/officer combination to a particular watermark; and
transmission circuitry transmitting a virtual-partner communication from the particular electronic digital assistant to the officer, wherein the communication has the particular watermark embedded within the communication;
wherein the particular electronic digital assistant comprises software applications running on underlying electronic hardware that are capable of understanding natural language, and can complete electronic tasks in response to user voice inputs, among other additional or alternative types of inputs.
5. The apparatus of claim 4 wherein the particular watermark comprises a sub-audible tone.
6. The apparatus of claim 4 wherein the particular watermark uniquely identifies the particular electronic digital assistant/officer combination.
7. A method comprising the steps of:
providing a database comprising a plurality of electronic digital assistant identifications and a plurality of watermarks;
accessing the database and mapping a particular electronic digital assistant, electronic digital assistant/officer combination, and/or an officer to receive a virtual-partner transmission to a particular watermark; and
transmitting a virtual-partner communication from the particular electronic digital assistant to the officer, wherein the communication has the particular watermark embedded within the communication,
wherein the particular electronic digital assistant comprises software applications running on underlying electronic hardware that are capable of understanding natural language, and can complete electronic tasks in response to user voice inputs, among other additional or alternative types of inputs.
8. The method of claim 7 wherein the particular watermark comprises a sub-audible tone.
9. The method of claim 7 wherein the particular watermark uniquely identifies the particular electronic digital assistant, electronic digital assistant/officer combination, and/or an officer to receive the virtual-partner transmission.
