Abstract
A method and system is disclosed in which information related to an orientation or motion pattern of a mobile device system is detected. A determination is made whether the orientation information detected corresponds to a predetermined motion pattern or orientation for collecting event stamp information. The event stamp information may include a location and/or other event information. If the detected orientation and/or motion patterns is detected, the event stamp information is automatically collected in response to the determination, and the event stamp information is is at least temporarily stored.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- detecting, by a detector, information related to an orientation of a mobile device system, the mobile device system including the detector, a processor system including one or more processor, and nonvolatile memory system;
- determining, by the mobile device system, that the orientation information detected corresponds to a predetermined orientation that is associated with actively collecting information related to an event, where the information related to the event is different than information that is automatically collected as event stamp information, the event stamp information including a location;
- in response to the determining, automatically by the processor system, collecting the event stamp information;
- and
- at least temporarily storing, by the processor system the event stamp information in the nonvolatile memory.
A method comprising:
- detecting, by a detector, information related to an orientation of a mobile device system, the mobile device system including the detector, a processor system including one or more processor, and nonvolatile memory system;
- determining, by the mobile device system, that the orientation information detected corresponds to a predetermined orientation for collecting event stamp information, the event stamp information including a location;
- in response to the determining, automatically by the processor system, collecting the event stamp information;
- and
- at least temporarily storing, by the processor system the event stamp information in the nonvolatile memory, the mobile device system including a camera, and the information related to the orientation of a mobile device system including at least information related to lifting the mobile device system so as to be oriented parallel to the user's face with the camera facing away from the user's face.
A method comprising:
- detecting, by a detector, information related to an orientation of a mobile device system, the mobile device system including the detector, a processor system including one or more processor, and nonvolatile memory system;
- determining, by the mobile device system, that the orientation information detected corresponds to a predetermined orientation for manually collecting event stamp information, the event stamp information including a location;
- in response to the determining, automatically by the processor system, collecting the event stamp information;
- and
- at least temporarily storing, by the processor system the event stamp information in the nonvolatile memory.
