Abstract
An apparatus and a method are provided for detecting and recording, in an electronic device, evidence of a person'"'"'s situation. Situation data is detected using a situation data sensor in the electronic device. Situation data can be data representing evidence of a person'"'"'s situation, wherein such evidence can show a person'"'"'s place in relation to another person or thing, or the state of a person being able to interact with another person or thing. Next, biometric data of the user of the electronic device is detected. Biometric data can be data that represents one or more intrinsic physical or behavioral traits of a person. Thereafter, a report is created using the situation data and the biometric data, wherein the report includes evidence of the situation of the user of the electronic device.
