Systems and methods for establishing communications between mobile device users
DCFirst Claim
1. A method for establishing a communication between mobile devices, comprising:
- determining, by a collaboration system, a match between profile data of a first mobile device and profile data of a second mobile device;
displaying at the first mobile device in response to the match a first list of user identifications, the first list including an identification of a user of the second mobile device;
displaying at the second mobile device in response to the match a second list of user identifications, the second list including an identification of a user of the first mobile device;
providing at the first mobile device an option for the user of the first mobile device to select or not to select the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list, wherein in response to selecting or not selecting the identification of the second mobile device user an option is provided to select or not to select a different user identification;
providing at the second mobile device an option for the user of the second mobile device to select or not to select the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list, wherein in response to selecting or not selecting the identification of the first mobile device user, an option is provided to select or not select a different user identification;
wherein;
in response to selecting the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list and selecting the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list, an electronic communication is formed between the first mobile device and second mobile device; and
wherein;
in response to the first mobile device user failing to select the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list or the second mobile device user failing to select the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list, an electronic communication is prevented from being formed between the first mobile device and second mobile device.

Abstract
Provided are systems and methods for establishing a communication between mobile device users that register with a collaboration system. The collaboration system determines a match between profile data of the first registered mobile device and profile data of the second registered mobile device. Displayed at the first registered mobile device is a first list of user identifications, which includes an identification of a user of the second registered mobile device and an identification of a user of at least one other mobile device. Displayed at the second registered mobile device is a second list of user identifications. The second list includes an identification of a user of the first registered mobile device and an identification of at least one other mobile device user.

wherein;
in response to selecting the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list and selecting the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list, an electronic communication is formed between the first mobile device and second mobile device; and
wherein;
in response to the first mobile device user failing to select the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list or the second mobile device user failing to select the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list, an electronic communication is prevented from being formed between the first mobile device and second mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
- determining, by a collaboration system, a match between profile data of a first mobile device and profile data of a second mobile device;
-
35. A server device configured to establish a communication between mobile devices, comprising:
- a processor that determines a match between profile data of a first mobile device and profile data of a second mobile device;
a processor that generates and outputs to the first mobile device in response to the match a first list of user identifications, the first list including an identification of a user of the second mobile device;
a processor that generates and outputs to the second mobile device in response to the match a second list of user identifications, the second list including an identification of a user of the first mobile device;
a processor that provides at the first mobile device an option for the user of the first mobile device to select or not to select the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list, wherein in response to selecting or not selecting the identification of the second mobile device user, an option is provided to select or not select a different user identification;
a processor that provides at the second mobile device an option for the user of the second mobile device to select or not to select the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list, wherein in response to selecting or not selecting the identification of the first mobile device user an option is provided to select or not to select a different user identification; and
a processor that forms an electronic communication between the first mobile device and the second mobile device in response to the user of the first mobile device selecting the identification of the second mobile device user from the first list and the user of the second mobile device selecting the identification of the first mobile device user from the second list.
- a processor that determines a match between profile data of a first mobile device and profile data of a second mobile device;
-
36. A computer for establishing a communication between mobile devices according to steps, comprising:
- providing an interface for a user of a mobile device to enter profile data;
displaying on the device, in response to a match between profile data of the user and at least one other mobile device, a list of user identifications, the list including an identification of a user of the at least one other mobile device;
providing an option for the user to select or not to select the identification of the user of the at least one other mobile device from the list of user identifications, wherein in response to selecting or not selecting the identification of the at least one other mobile device user, an option is provided to select or not select a different user identification;
providing for an electronic communication between the user'"'"'s device and the at least one other mobile device in response to the user selecting the identification of the user of the at least one other mobile device and the user of the at least one other device user selecting the user; and
wherein;
an electronic communication is absent between the user'"'"'s device and the at least one other mobile device when the user fails to select the identification of the at least one other mobile device user or the user of the at least one other device fails to select the user.
