Actuator activation based on sensed user characteristics

An actuator activation system comprising:

• an actuator;
• an interface configured to communicate with a sensor;
• and
• a processor block coupled to the actuator and the interface and configured to:
• receive a first orientation parameter from the sensor;
• measure a second orientation parameter associated with the actuator;
• determine a difference between the first orientation parameter and the second orientation parameter;
• determine that the sensor and the actuator are in proximity;
• and
• in response to determination that the difference satisfies an activation threshold and determination that the sensor and the actuator are in proximity, activate the actuator.

An actuator activation system comprising:

• an interface configured to communicate with an actuator controller;
• a sensor configured to measure a first orientation parameter associated with the sensor;
• and
• a processor block coupled to the interface and the sensor and configured to:
• receive a proximity detection signal from the actuator controller,
• receive a second orientation parameter from the actuator controller;
• determine a difference between the first orientation parameter and the second orientation parameter;
• and
• in response to receiving the proximity detection signal and determination that the difference satisfies an activation threshold, transmit an activation signal to the actuator controller.
