Abstract
A method for dynamically adjusting alerts of a portable electronic device is provided. The method may include steps for receiving, from a threshold value associated with an attention level of a user. The method may also include receiving one or more numeric values corresponding to a current mental state of a user from a brainwave sensor. Next, the method may compare the one or more numeric values from the brainwave sensor and the received threshold, and based at least on the comparison, the method may automatically adjust at least one alert of the portable electronic device.
Claims23
A method for dynamically adjusting alerts of a portable electronic device, the method comprising:
- receiving a threshold value from a user, wherein the threshold value comprises a threshold value associated with an attention level value of the user;
- receiving one or more numeric values from a brainwave sensor, the numeric values corresponding to a current attention level of the user;
- comparing the received one or more numeric values from the brainwave sensor and the received threshold value;
- and
- based at least on the comparison, automatically adjusting at least one alert mode of the portable electronic device.
A system for dynamically adjusting alerts of a portable electronic device, the system comprising:
- a brainwave sensor configured to measure one or more brainwave signals;
- a portable electronic device communicatively coupled to the brainwave sensor, wherein the portable electronic device is configured to:
- receiving one or more numeric values from the brainwave sensor, the one or more numeric values corresponding to a current attention level of a user;
- receiving a threshold value from the user, wherein the threshold value comprises a threshold value associated with an attention level value of the user;
- comparing the one or more received numeric values from the brainwave sensor and the received threshold value;
- and
- based at least on the comparison, automatically adjusting at least one alert mode of the portable electronic device.
A program of instructions stored on computer readable media, the program instructions configured to, when executed by a processor:
- receive a threshold value from the user, wherein the threshold value comprises a threshold value associated with an attention level value of a user;
- receive one or more numeric values from a sensor, the numeric value corresponding to a current attention level of the user;
- compare the one or more received numeric values from the brainwave sensor and the received threshold value;
- and
- based at least on the comparison, automatically adjusting at least one alert mode of the portable electronic device.
