VIDEO CALL RECORDING CALLS

[1] The present invention is a video call recording system in the telephone and computer industry, particularly a system for use in mobile devices (smartphone or tablet with associated telephone number). to him) in order to record a video conference that starts on his mobile device with a single call.

TECHNICAL BACKGROUNDS

[2] It is noteworthy that the organizational processes are still conditioned to the "paper" work tool for various purposes, especially with regard to selective processes for job openings. However, concern for the environment and sustainability is "forgotten" by organizational structures and large corporations and this is a hot topic in today's world. Issues related to sustainability make companies engaged in these projects stand out in the media and the corporate world, as it generates healthy competitiveness with other companies that have always promoted alternative sustainability systems.

[3] It is also noteworthy that in a selective process, the candidate for the vacancy would travel many times to pass tests and questions from different areas, that is, for the same purpose. With the system, object of _. In the present invention, the selection process would be carried out by videoconferencing via a smartphone or tablet without the applicant or company personnel moving (eventually moving to a plant other than work every day). The invention will be of great use in the corporate world and will also be useful for personal / private, commercial and educational purposes, such as the technical explanation of the use and usability of a particular product between a chemical engineer and a seller / user of his product. ; the orientation of an academic work between an advisor teacher and his group of students. The invention adds to the members being able to watch (see again) and share with others the event / conversation (recorded) of something that is important to them, having sentimental, financial value or as a means of security and certification of what was treated. conversations between friends and acquaintances, instruction, leisure, business, general interviews, service proposals, and personal safety (SOS). In this case, as an example, a person who is in trouble with his car, plane, boat, or anyone who is in a bad place (without company) and needs to "fix" his "good" as well as provide first aid in case of accident and / or discomfort, you may have access to a previously recorded conversation with instructions to follow, and the system will be free for anyone, natural or legal, simply download the application (App) on your mobile device.

[4] Electronic media has been the path of companies that want to broaden their horizons in the pursuit of business globalization, providing greater disclosure and agility in their business, products or services.

[5] For a better understanding of the subject matter of the patent, some terms will be defined below:

[6] App: This is a mobile app programmed through of specific software to be installed on the mobile electronic device, such as a PDA, a mobile phone, a smartphone, or an MP3 player. This app can be installed on the device as soon as it is downloaded by the user through an online store such as Google Play, App Store and etc. if the model of the device allows access. In these stores, some of the apps available are free, while some are paid for. These applications are factory preinstalled, or downloaded by customers from various mobile software distribution platforms, or are HTTP-delivered web applications that use server or client-side processing (for example, JavaScript) to provide an experience. "application" within a web browser.

[7] Smartphone: {smart phone) is a mobile device with advanced features that can be extended through programs run by your operating system. Smartphone operating systems allow developers to create thousands of additional programs with various uses.

[8] Tablet: Also known as a tablet, PC tablet or simply Portuguese tablet, it is a personal clipboard-shaped device that can be used for internet access, personal organization, photo viewing, video reading, book reading, newspaper and magazines, entertainment and games. Features a touchscreen which is the main input device. A fingertip or a pen triggers its functionality. It's a new concept: it should not be equated with a complete computer or a smartphone, although it has functionality for both.

[9] Videoconferencing: A technology that allows visual and sound contact between people in different places, giving the impression that the interlocutors are in the same place. It allows not only communication between a group, but also person-to-person communication.

[10] Video call: A real-time video call that can be made from one compatible device to another, linked to a personal identifier line / number.

[11] Store: Smart store that lets users browse and download apps. Depending on the application, it can be free or paid. Applications can be downloaded directly to the device.

[12] Currently there are devices equipped with system that through different applications allow to make a videoconference, video call, and yet do not allow its recording on the device itself, or when it allows some recording, it is stored on an external server, This favors that only a few companies use this service, since such storage demands high investments. PROPOSAL OF THE INVENTION

[13] Thus, one of the objectives of the present invention is the creation of a system which, by means of an application, by initiating the conversation with one of the users who also has the respective application, will also allow to start a videoconference and it can be recorded. on the smartphone / tablet of the caller, that is, the system will make life easier for users in certain situations, but will be of great use to the routine where, for example, a simple interview can be done through this system and then made available to the other areas and people involved in the selection process, preventing a particular person from moving to the same place over and over for the same purpose in case for a job selection.

[14] Another objective of the present invention is through the system to create a different application that, in addition to conventional messaging, also enables the exchange of videos and images, not to mention, of course, that the system will enable the user to record a video conference started on the caller's smartphone / tablet. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[15] The system allows, by means of an entry, which is the user's own telephone line number, to display in the phonebook of the smartphone or tablet (which has the possibility of using a chip to make phone calls) all contacts who have the app, where you can adjust your personal settings to the quality of your calls' audio and video, and the ways you want to store and share them when they are created by the app.

[16] After downloading the app to the mobile device (smartphone or tablet that has the ability to make phone calls), the app will integrate with the phonebook, where you can view all contacts who also have the app and by clicking on contact, the conversation will start instantly and you can make video or video calls. text, as is already standard in other applications, and it will still be possible to exchange images.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURE

[17] The video call recording call system will be better understood by the single figure which schematically represents a system flowchart for performing a video call recording.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[18] According to the single figure, the video call recording call system consists of an application, which once downloaded over the internet in smart stores, allows user A (UA) to sign in to the system by associating the your device number (mobile phone line number) to the application, which will identify you as a system user. User A (UA), call generator, when accessing the address book of his contacts, will identify the users also registered in the system and possessors of the respective application, and those who do not have the registration may be invited to do so. you through email message or SMS.

[19] Once the video call generator, user A (UA), and the receiver, user B (UB) are identified, the application starts by connecting the parties via internet access, either by network. wifi or other data packet. Real-time audio and video exchange is now possible via the mobile device's native camcorder and microphone, and a server (S) is responsible for encoding, compressing, transmitting and recording the message. At the end of the call, the server then generates a file (A) in "open" format with the recording and allows it to be stored. on the call generator's own device (D1) (user A), which can share or send the resulting "recorded" file through widely broadcast social networks (RS) or via email to another mobile device (D2).

[20] Not being of interest to the call generator (user A), the generated file can be immediately or as soon as you wish to be deleted from your device. Noting that no copy and storage will be generated at any time on any device or server other than the one that originated the call.

[21] The system works with input sources (camera, microphone) from platforms such as mobile phones and tablets using codecs ¹ for Adobe Air-type audio and video compression, then data is transmitted point-by-point. peer-to-peer (P2P) ² between users through Flash Media Server (FMS) media servers ³ . So that this video call does not affect the server, the system is highly scalable. However, the system FMS media server allows end-user chat before streaming ⁴ starts via its Network Address Translation (NAT) ⁵ with configuration on its networks with network security systems (firewalls) ⁶ between end-users, making communication otherwise impossible. This is done with the help of network servers that relay information in the event of a point-to-point (STUN / TURN) ⁷ failure operating on FMS media servers. The same system occurs in video calls and with textual chat communication. [22] Textual "chat" system communication is performed quickly and reliably, combining the benefits of scalable ⁸ Cloud Hosted (XMPP) ⁹ hosted storage servers for instant messaging, Authorized via (Sign-On) ¹⁰ , single sign-on authentication system (PushNotifications) ¹¹ used for technical notifications, reminders and other messages, and file attachments via Content Server and Data Center ) ¹² allocated to ^' scalable cloud storage servers.

[23] The system can be configured with a keep-alive connection ³ , which allows web browsers to make multiple requests using the same connection with self-scaling servers with FMS chat infrastructure. SYSTEM FEATURES:

[56] Once the user has downloaded the app to their smartphone or tablet they will be able to view through their phonebook all contacts who have the app as well. From this point on, the integration to start a conversation is very easy, just click on that contact that also has the application and the conversation will start instantly. With the conversation you can simply exchange standard text messages, or exchange video images. After the conversation, the system will generate the file with the conversation recording that can be saved to the generating user's device, shared or simply deleted.

[57] With the video call recording system thus obtained, you will only need a smartphone or tablet (which has the ability to use a phone chip) and access Internet via your smartphone, Wi-Fi or data packet.

[58] Regarding its use, it may be for various personal purposes, such as a simple conversation between friends, or for professional use, making it possible to conduct a job interview through the application, because on the mobile device of the one who generated the link, where the resulting video starts the same, will also be automatically archived, and it will be possible after the call ends to make the content available through sharing on social networks or through the application itself with other people and / or areas involved in the recruitment.

[59} The present system allows users to watch (see again) and share with others the recorded event / conversation of something that matters to them, having sentimental, financial value or as a means of security and certification of what has been treated, such as conversations between friends and acquaintances, instruction, leisure, business, general interviews, including job interviews, service proposals, and personal safety {SOS). In this case, as an example, a person who is in trouble with his car, plane, boat, or anyone who is in a bad place (without company) and needs to "fix" his "good" as well as provide first aid in case of accident and / or malaise, you may have access to a previously recorded conversation with instructions to follow.

[60] The scope of the present invention should not be limited to the examples of the system but to the terms defined in the claims and their equivalents.
