AUDIO COMMAND-BASED TRIGGERING
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- detecting, at a first device including an audio detector and a transceiver, an audio command;
recording, at the first device, a first timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected;
sending, by the first device via the transceiver, one or more packets to discover one or more other devices;
detecting, by the first device, at least one response to the sent one or more packets, the at least one response including a second timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected by a second device and a second transceiver; and
triggering, by the first device, an action based on a comparison of the first time stamp and the second time stamp.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for connectivity. In one aspect there is provided a method, which may include detecting, at a first device including an audio detector and a transceiver, an audio command; recording, at the first device, a first timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected; sending, by the first device via the transceiver, one or more packets to discover one or more other devices; detecting, by the first device, at least one response to the sent one or more packets, the at least one response including a second timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected by a second device and a second transceiver; and triggering, by the first device, an action based on a comparison of the first time stamp and the second time stamp.

8. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one processor, the at least one memory, and the computer program code configured to cause the apparatus to at least; detect, at the apparatus including an audio detector and a transceiver, an audio command; record, at the apparatus, a first timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected; send, by the apparatus via the transceiver, one or more packets to discover one or more other devices; detect, by the apparatus, at least one response to the sent one or more packets, the at least one response including a second timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected by a second device and a second transceiver; and triggering, by the first device, an action based on a comparison of the first time stamp and the second time stamp. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by at least one processor in an apparatus, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
-
Detecting an audio command; recording a first timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected; sending one or more packets to discover one or more other devices; detecting at least one response to the sent one or more packets, the at least one response including a second timestamp representative of when the audio command was detected by a second device and a second transceiver; and triggering an action based on a comparison of the first time stamp and the second time stamp. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
