1. A wearable device comprising:
- a processor;
at least one transceiver;
a sensor configured to sense the presence of a user;
an energy source for powering the at least one transceiver, processor, and sensor, wherein the processor is configured to cause the at least one transceiver to transmit information indicative of a presence of a user, and wherein the energy source is configured to reduce its power output when the sensor configured to sense the presence of a user confirms the absence of a user, and wherein the at least one transceiver is configured to transmit a signal at a first time interval, and wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit a signal at a second time interval when the user presence sensor confirms the absence of a user, wherein the second time interval is greater than the first time interval.

16. A method comprising:
-
using a sensor of a wearable device to confirm the presence of a user; and causing information indicative of a user status to be sent from the wearable device to a device connected to the interne if the user presence is confirmed, wherein the information is transmitted at a first time interval; reducing the power of an energy source when the sensor confirms the absence of the user, wherein the information is transmitted at a second time interval when sensor confirms the absence of a user, wherein the second time interval is greater than the first time interval. - View Dependent Claims (17)
