SELECTIVELY REDIRECTING NOTIFICATIONS TO A WEARABLE COMPUTING DEVICE
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a first computing device, sensor data from a second computing device, wherein the sensor data indicates movement of the second computing device;
responsive to determining, by the first computing device and based on the sensor data, that the second computing device is not being worn;
outputting, by the first computing device and for display, a notification; and
outputting, by the first computing device, for transmission to the second computing device, a command to cause the second computing device to transition from operating in a full access mode to operating in a reduced access mode, wherein at least a portion of functionality of the second computing device is inaccessible via a lock mechanism while the second computing device is operating in the reduced access mode; and
responsive to determining, by the first computing device and based on the sensor data, that the second computing device is being worn, sending, by the first computing device, to the second computing device, an indication of the notification.

Abstract
A first computing device can include at least one processor, and a notification redirection module operable by the at least one processor to receive sensor data from a second computing device, responsive to determining, based on the sensor data, that the second computing device is not being worn, output and for display, a notification, and responsive to determining, based on the sensor data, that the second computing device is being worn, send to the second computing device, an indication of the notification.

7. A method comprising:
-
responsive to determining, by a first computing device, that a clasp sensor of the first computing device is closed, enabling an accelerometer of the first computing device; and responsive to determining, by the first computing device and based on sensor data from the accelerometer, that the first computing device has not moved within a threshold period of time; transmitting, by the first computing device and to a second computing device, a command to cause the second computing device to stop redirecting notifications to the first computing device; and disabling, by the first computing device, a display of the first computing device. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)

11. A first computing device comprising:
-
at least one processor; and a notification redirection module operable by the at least one processor to; receive sensor data from a second computing device, wherein the sensor data indicates movement of the second computing device; responsive to determining, based on the sensor data, that the second computing device is not being worn; output and for display, a notification; and output, for transmission to the second computing device, a command to cause the second computing device to transition from operating in a full access mode to operating in a reduced access mode, wherein at least a portion of functionality of the second computing device is inaccessible via a lock mechanism while the second computing device is operating in the reduced access mode; and responsive to determining, based on the sensor data, that the second computing device is being worn, send to the second computing device, an indication of the notification. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
