AUTOMATIC ROTATION THROUGH PLAY OUT OF AUDIO-CLIPS IN REPSONSE TO DETECTED ALERT EVENTS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- maintaining in data storage a set of audio-clip data defining a plurality of distinct audio-clips and a particular sequence in which the audio-clips should be played out;
detecting a first alert event and responsively playing out at least a first audio-clip of the sequence; and
detecting a next alert event and responsively playing out at least a next audio-clip of the sequence.

Abstract
A method and device for detecting alert events and responsively playing out audio-clips. The audio-clips may comprise data representing a sound recording. Playing out the audio-clips occurs in an order defined by a sequence. The audio-clips and the sequence are maintained in data storage. A processor executes program logic to detect a first alert event and responsively play out at least a first audio-clip of the sequence, and to detect a next alert event and responsively play out at least a next alert event of the sequence. After playing out all audio-clips in the sequence, play out of the audio-clips may then continue with the first audio-clip of the sequence.

11. A device comprising:
-
a processor; a communication interface; data storage; a set of audio-clip data stored in the data storage and defining a plurality of distinct audio-clips and a particular sequence in which the audio-clips should be played out; and program logic stored in the data storage and executable by the processor to (i) detect a first alert event and responsively play out at least a first audio-clip of the sequence, and (ii) detect a next alert event and responsively play out at least a next audio-clip of the sequence. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A device comprising:
-
a processor; a communication interface; data storage; a first set of audio-clip data stored in the data storage and defining a first set of audio-clips of a plurality of distinct audio-clips and a first sequence in which the audio-clips of the first set should be played out; a second set of audio-clip data stored in the data storage and defining a second set of audio-clips of the plurality of distinct audio-clips and a second sequence in which the audio-clips of the second set should be played out; and program logic stored in the data storage and executable by the processor to (i) detect a first alert event of a first type and responsively play out at least a first audio-clip of the first sequence, and (ii) detect a next alert event of the first type and responsively play out at least a next audio-clip of the first sequence, wherein the program logic is further executable to (i) detect a first alert event of a second type and responsively play out at least a first audio-clip of the second sequence, and (ii) detect a next alert event of the second type and responsively play out at least a next audio-clip of the second sequence. - View Dependent Claims (20)
