Patent Images
1. A method for interaction with a wallboard, comprising:
- obtaining, by a processor, location information for one or more individuals in a contact center;
determining, by the processor, based on the obtained location information, a first wallboard to display contact center information to the one or more individuals that is specifically directed to the one or more individuals, wherein the first wallboard is selected from among a plurality of wallboards in the contact center based on a proximity of the first wallboard with the one or more individuals; and
causing, by the processor, the first wallboard to display the contact center information that is specifically directed to the one or more individuals.

17. A communication system, comprising:
-
a plurality of wallboards; and a wallboard module comprising a processor and processor-executable instructions that enable the processor of the wallboard module to perform the following operations; obtain, using the processor, location information for one or more individuals in a contact center; determine, using the processor and based on the obtained location information, a first wallboard to display contact center information to the one or more individuals that is specifically directed to the one or more individuals and cause the first wallboard to display the contact center information that is specifically directed to the one or more individuals, wherein the first wallboard is selected from among the plurality of wallboards in the contact center based on a proximity of the first wallboard with the one or more individuals; receive, using the processor, an instruction from a device carried by the contact center supervisor to update the first wallboard with new contact center information and push the new contact center information to the first wallboard, thereby causing the first wallboard to display the new contact center information; receive, using the processor, a request from the contact center agent to display the new contact center information and provide the device carried by the contact center supervisor with a request to display the new contact center information on the first wallboard; and receive, using the processor, a response to the request granting permission to display the new contact center information on the first wallboard and cause the first wallboard to display the new contact center information. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
