摘要： A method and apparatus for routing an incoming telephone call to an individual in a building who is not in his or her office. The individual carries a wireless communications unit, typically incorporated in a clip-on badge, that receives messages and transmits both responses and periodic signals to allow tracking the location of the individual. When a call arrives, a message indicating the call is transmitted to the communications unit, which displays an indication of the call together with responses that can be selected to determine how the call is to be routed. Such responses include, in particular, locations of telephone instruments near the individual that the call can be routed to. If the individual selects a particular location, the response is transmitted back to a PBX to cause the appropriate routing.

摘要： A method and apparatus for sending paging signals and messages to individuals within a building and accepting responses to the messages. Messages may be initiated by electronic mail, incoming telephone calls, incoming Fax messages, or other sources. Data is sent via radio to a communications unit carried by the individual and displayed visually together with possible responses. Each unit transmits its identity and responses or original messages when desired via coded infrared light (or, in an alternative embodiment, ultrasound) to one or more remote stations located in rooms or along corridors of the building. A remote station relays data to a central station via wire or optical fiber, which tracks the location of units and delivers messages. Communication units are clipped to the clothing of users and can be incorporated into a corporate employee identification badge. The hybrid radio-infrared light approach combines the broad, reliable characteristics of radio communication with the ability of infrared light to allow each unit to be located. This allows highly reliable delivery of messages via an acknowledgement and retransmission protocol, two-way communication with the individual, and capabilities (such as those for transferring incoming telephone calls) that require the location of the individual to be known.
摘要翻译：一种用于向建筑物内的个人发送寻呼信号和消息并接受对消息的响应的方法和装置。消息可以通过电子邮件，传入电话呼入，传入传真消息或其他来源发起。数据通过无线电发送到个人携带的通信单元，并与可能的响应一起可视地显示。每个单元在需要时通过经编码的红外光（或在替代实施例中，超声波）发送其身份和响应或原始消息到位于建筑物的房间或沿着走廊的一个或多个远程站。远程站通过有线或光纤将数据中继到中心站，跟踪单元的位置并传送消息。通信单元被剪辑到用户的衣服上，并且可以被并入企业雇员身份证。混合无线电红外光方法将无线电通信的广泛可靠的特征与红外光的能力相结合，以允许每个单元被定位。这允许通过确认和重传协议，与个体的双向通信以及要求个人的位置被知道的能力（例如那些用于传送传入电话呼叫）的高度可靠的传送。

摘要： A method and apparatus for control of a digital watch and associated functions, based on a user interface with a menu and thumbwheel. The watch consists of an internal clock, microprocessor, display, rotating cylinder (thumbwheel) operated by the thumb or finger, and a button. The display consists of a matrix of pixels and can display menus or other information with small characters and time and date information in a larger size. Rotating the cylinder results in changing the designated item in a menu, which is typically indicated in reverse video, and pressing the button results in the designated item being selected. In cases where a parameter is modified and the values of the parameter are well known and have a natural order (such as minutes) only the present value of the parameter is displayed, and movement of the thumbwheel causes the displayed value to be incremented or decremented, as appropriate. Pressing the selector button causes the actual value of the parameter to be replaced by the displayed value. The use of a hierarchical set of menus and a thumbwheel allows control of a watch with only a single button and avoids excessive dependence on multiple buttons the function of which is context-dependent and difficult to learn and to remember.
摘要翻译：一种用于基于具有菜单和指轮的用户界面来控制数字手表和相关功能的方法和装置。手表由内部时钟，微处理器，显示器，拇指或手指操作的旋转圆柱（指轮）和按钮组成。显示器由像素矩阵组成，可以显示具有小字符的菜单或其他信息以及更大尺寸的时间和日期信息。旋转圆筒导致改变菜单中的指定项目，其通常以反向视频指示，并且按下按钮导致所选择的指定项目。在修改参数并且参数值是众所周知的且具有自然顺序（如分钟）的情况下，仅显示参数的当前值，并且指轮的移动将使显示值递增或递减，作为适当的。按下选择按钮可以将参数的实际值替换为显示的值。使用分层的菜单和指轮允许仅使用单个按钮来控制手表，并避免过度依赖多个按钮，其功能与上下文有关并且难以学习和记忆。
