Abstract
Systems and methods for generating notifications based on one or more environmental conditions sensed a mobile computing device. The notifications can also be based on information related to one or more applications that can run on the mobile computing device. The mobile device can also detect non-environmental inputs from the user and ignore them in determining parameters of the notifications.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method of generating notifications, the method comprising:
- receiving information derived from at least one environment sensor of a mobile computing device;
- and
- selectively generating a notification for a user in response to notification request, wherein the notification has parameters based at least on the received information.
A system to generate a notification, the system comprising:
- an interface to an environment sensor of a mobile computing device;
- and
- a sensor data processor to selectively generate a notification for a user in response to notification request, wherein the notification has parameters based at least on the received information.
A system for generating notifications, the system comprising:
- means for receiving information derived from at least one environment sensor of a mobile computing device;
- and
- means for selectively generating a notification for a user in response to notification request, wherein the notification has parameters based at least on the received information.
