Tracking proximities of devices and/or objects
First Claim
1. A mobile device, comprising:
- at least one processor; and
a memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one processor configured to;
determine that a sensory device is inside a predefined area surrounding the mobile device based at least on a determination of whether the sensory device is inside or outside the predefined area,predict whether the sensory device will remain within the predefined area surrounding the mobile device based at least on a determination that the sensory device did not move at substantially same time or in substantially same direction as the mobile device, andprovide at least one feedback via the mobile device, wherein the at least one feedback indicates that the sensory device is predicted to not remain within the predefined area surrounding the mobile device.

Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, and/or computer program product embodiments for tracking proximities of devices and/or objects. In one embodiment, the system operates by determining whether a plurality of devices of a tethered segment are inside or outside a predefined area. The system also operates by determining that a first device of the plurality of devices is outside of the predefined area based at least partially on the determination of whether the plurality of devices are inside or outside the predefined area. The system further operates by transmitting at least one alert notification to at least one device based at least partially on the determination that the first device is outside the predefined area, wherein the alert notification identifies the first device outside the predefined area.

15. A tangible computer-readable device having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, causes the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
determining that a sensory device is inside a predefined area surrounding a mobile device based at least partially on a determination of whether the sensory device is inside or outside the predefined area; predicting that the sensory device will not remain within the predefined area surrounding the mobile device based at least on a determination that the sensory device did not move at substantially same time or in substantially same direction as the mobile device; and transmitting at least one alert notification to the sensory device based at least on the prediction that the sensory device will not remain within the predefined area. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
