Trigger event based response execution with a cancel option

A method, comprising:

• sending, from a sensor apparatus, an identification message over a wireless communication network in response to a trigger event sensed by a sensor device comprised in the sensor apparatus, the identification message consisting of a unique identifier of the sensor apparatus;
• receiving the identification message at a network server;
• accessing, by the network server, a preconfigured action profile associated with the unique identifier in the received identification message;
• and
• causing, by the network server, a response action to be executed based on information in the accessed action profile,
• wherein the sensor apparatus comprises a button, and the trigger event consists of pressing the button no longer than a predetermined time period;
• and wherein a cancel event consists of pressing the button longer than the predetermined time period;
• and
• wherein the method further comprises causing a cancel action to be executed for cancelling the response action associated with the previous trigger event in response to detecting the cancel event.

A sensor apparatus, comprising:

• a sensor device configured to sense a trigger event;
• and
• a wireless transmitter configured to send an identification message over a wireless communication network to a network server in response to the trigger event sensed by sensor device, the identification message consisting of a unique identifier of the sensor apparatus,
• wherein the sensor apparatus further comprises a button, and the trigger event consists of pressing the button no longer than a predetermined time period;
• and wherein a cancel event consists of pressing the button longer than the predetermined time period, the cancel event triggering cancelling of the response action associated with the previous trigger event.

A network server, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the network server at least to perform:
• receiving an identification message sent by a sensor apparatus over a wireless communication network in response to a trigger event sensed by a sensor device comprised in the sensor apparatus, the identification message consisting of a unique identifier of the sensor apparatus;
• accessing a pre-configured action profile associated with the unique identifier in the received identification message;
• and
• causing a response action to be executed based on information in the accessed action profile,
• wherein the sensor apparatus comprises a button, and the trigger event consists of pressing the button no longer than a predetermined time period;
• and wherein a cancel event consists of pressing the button longer than the predetermined time period, and
• wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processor, further cause the network server to perform:
• causing a cancel action to be executed for cancelling the response action associated with the previous trigger event in response to detecting the cancel event.
