Abstract

An intelligent notification device is provided. The intelligent notification device is adapted to communicate with at least one electronic device. The intelligent notification device includes a detecting device and a controller. The detecting device detects a status parameter of at least one user and an enviromental parameter of the electronic device. The controller is electrically connected to the detecting device to control the electronic device to notify one of a plurality of events in an event schedule according to the event schedule and to dynamically adjust a time sequency of the events in the event schedule according to at least one of the enviromental parameter and the status parameter. An intelligent notification method is further provided.

Claims

1. An intelligent notification device, adapted to communicate with at least one electronic device, the intelligent notification device comprising:

a detecting device for detecting a change of user activity level included in status parameter of at least one user of the electronic device; and

a controller electrically connected to the detecting device to control the electronic device to notify one of a plurality of events in an event schedule according to the event schedule and to dynamically rearrange a time sequence of the events in the event schedule according to the change of user activity level,

wherein the electronic device analyses life information of a user, receives task information and provides the life information and the task information to the controller, and when the controller determines the electronic device already notifies one of the events in the event schedule, the controller deletes the notified events from the event schedule and rearranges the time sequence of non-notified events in the event schedule according to at least one of the life information and the task information.

2. The intelligent notification device according to claim 1, wherein the controller determines to control the electronic device to notify the event immediately, postpone the notification of the event or not to notify the event according to the change of user activity level detected by the detecting device.

3. The intelligent notification device according to claim 1, wherein when the controller determines the electronic device already notifies one of the events in the event schedule, the controller deletes the notified event from the event schedule and rearranges the time sequence of other events of the events in the event schedule according to the change of user activity level.

4. The intelligent notification device according to claim 1, wherein the controller dynamically rearranges the time sequence of the events in the event schedule according to a busy parameter, and the controller determines the busy parameter according to at least one of an operating status of the electronic device, the detected status parameter and an environmental parameter.

5. The intelligent notification device according to claim 4, wherein the detecting device detects at least one of a temperature, a humidity, a brightness and a gas molecule around the electronic device to obtain the environmental parameter.

6. The intelligent notification device according to claim 4, wherein the detecting device detects an operating status of at least one house appliance in an area near the electronic device to obtain the environmental parameter.

7. The intelligent notification device according to claim 1, wherein the living habit is established according to electronic data from the electronic device, the electronic information includes at least one of an electronic message, an electronic calendar, an e-mail and a voice message.

8. The intelligent notification device according to claim 1, wherein the controller establishes a living habit for a user according to at least one of the life information and the task information, and the controller establishes and dynamically rearranges the time sequence of the events in the event schedule according to the living habit.

9. An intelligent notification method adapted to the intelligent notification system, the intelligent notification system includes at least one electronic device and an intelligent notification device, the intelligent notification method comprising:

detecting a change of user activity level included in status parameter of at least one user of at least one electronic device;

rearranging dynamically a time sequence of a plurality of events in an event schedule according to the change of user activity level;

controlling the electronic device whether to notify one of the events in the event schedule according to the event schedule;

controlling the electronic device to analysis life information;

controlling the electronic device to receive task information;

controlling the electronic device to provide the life information and the task information to the intelligent notification device, wherein the time sequence of the events in the event schedule is established according to at least one of the life information and the task information;

deleting the notified event from the event schedule when the controller determines that the electronic device already notifies one of the events in the event schedule; and

rearranging the time sequence of the non-notified events in the event schedule according to at least one of the life information and the task information.

10. The intelligent notification method according to claim 9, wherein the step of controlling the electronic device whether to notify one of the events in the event schedule according to the event schedule further comprises:

determining whether to control the electronic device to notify the event immediately, postpone the notification of the event or not to notify the event according to the change of user activity level.

11. The intelligent notification method according to claim 9, the method further comprising:

deleting the notified event from the event schedule when the controller determines the electronic device already notifies one of the events in the event schedule; and

rearranging the time sequence of non-notified events in the event schedule according to the change of user activity level.

12. The intelligent notification method according to claim 9, the method further comprising:

rearranging dynamically the time sequence of the events in the event schedule according to a busy parameter,

wherein the busy parameter is determined according to at least one of the operating status of the electronic device, the detected status parameter and an environmental parameter.

13. The intelligent notification method according to claim 12, further comprising:

detecting at least one of a temperature, a humidity, a lightness and a gas molecule in an around the electronic device to obtain the environmental parameter.

14. The intelligent notification method according to claim 12, wherein the step of detecting the change of user activity level included in status parameter of the electronic device further comprises:

detecting an operating status of at least one house appliance in an area near the electronic device to obtain the environmental parameter.

15. The intelligent notification method according to claim 9, wherein the step of controlling the electronic device to analysis the life information of the user further comprises:

electronic data from the electronic device, wherein the electronic information includes at least one of an electronic message, an electronic calendar, an e-mail and a voice message.

16. The intelligent notification method according to claim 9, the method further comprising:

establishing a living habit according to at least one of the life information and the task information,

wherein the time sequence of the events in the event schedule is established and dynamically rearranged according to the living habit.
