Abstract
An approach is provided for causing, at least in part, a detection of at least one notification within proximity of at least one device. The approach involves causing, at least in part, a detection of at least one movement of the at least one device after the detection. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, an initiation of at least one alternative operating mode for the at least one device based, at least in part, on the at least one notification and the at least one movement.
Claims21
A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following:
- a detection of at least one notification within proximity of at least one device;
- a detection of at least one movement of the at least one device after the detection;
- and
- an initiation of at least one alternative operating mode for the at least one device based, at least in part, on the at least one notification and the at least one movement.
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following,
- cause, at least in part, a detection of at least one notification of at least one alarm within proximity of at least one device;
- cause, at least in part, a detection of at least one movement of the at least one device after the detection;
- and
- cause, at least in part, an initiation of at least one alternative operating mode for the at least one device based, at least in part, on the at least one notification and the at least one movement.
A computer-readable storage medium carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause an apparatus to at least perform the following steps:
- cause, at least in part, a detection of at least one notification within proximity of at least one device;
- cause, at least in part, a detection of at least one movement of the at least one device after the detection;
- and
- cause, at least in part, an initiation of at least one alternative operating mode for the at least one device based, at least in part, on the at least one notification and the at least one movement.
