Trigger event based response execution with secure initialization

A method, comprising:

• sending, from a sensor apparatus comprising a sensor device configured to sense a trigger event related to at least one of touching the sensor apparatus, illumination in proximity of the sensor apparatus, temperature in proximity of the sensor apparatus, position of the sensor apparatus, acceleration of the sensor apparatus, compass heading of the sensor apparatus, velocity of the sensor apparatus, and motion in proximity of the sensor apparatus, an identification message over a wireless communication network in response to a single sensed trigger event automatically without requiring further user interaction, the identification message only consisting of a unique identifier of the sensor apparatus;
• receiving the identification message at a network server;
• accessing, by the network server, a pre-configured 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 method further comprises pairing the sensor apparatus to a subscriber account before first use;
• and
• wherein the pairing comprises entering to subscriber account associated data a unique device code associated with the sensor apparatus and a description of a light signal sequence displayed by the sensor apparatus.

A system, comprising:

• a sensor apparatus comprising a button and a switch arrangement configured to sense pressing of said button, said sensor apparatus configured to interact with an Internet service via single a button press by automatically sending an identification message over a wireless communication network in response to a single sensed pressing of said button without requiring further user interaction, said identification message consisting of a unique identifier of the sensor apparatus;
• and
• a network server, configured to receive the identification message, access a pre-configured action profile associated with the unique identifier in the received identification message, and cause a response action to be executed based on information in the accessed action profile,
• wherein the sensor apparatus is further configured to be paired to a subscriber account before first use;
• and
• wherein the pairing comprises entering to subscriber account associated data a unique device code associated with the sensor apparatus and a description of a light signal sequence displayed by the sensor apparatus.
