Power management for a wearable apparatus
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus comprising:
- an attachment portion to secure the apparatus to a user; and
a context module to determine a context corresponding to a user state, wherein a first power mode applicable to at least a part of the apparatus and a second power mode applicable to at least a part of one or more computing platforms external to and associated with the apparatus are to be specified based on the context, the first power mode to cause a disruption to the part of the apparatus and the second power mode to cause an activation to the part of the one or more computing platforms when the context is to indicate that action is to occur via the one or more computing platforms.

Abstract
Apparatus, systems, and/or methods may provide power management. An attachment portion may secure an apparatus to a user. In one example, an apparatus includes a wearable wristwatch having a wristband attachment portion. A context corresponding to a user state may be determined from context data such as, for example, sensor context data, database context data, companion context data, and/or user context data. The context may be used to specify a power mode applicable to a part of the apparatus to manage power.

13. A method comprising:
-
determining a context corresponding to a user state; and specifying a first power mode applicable to at least a part of a wearable apparatus and a second power mode applicable to at least a part of one or more computing platforms external to and associated with the apparatus based on the context, the first power mode causing a disruption to the part of the apparatus and the second power mode causing an activation to the part of the one or more computing platforms when the context indicates that action occurs via the one or more computing platforms. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising one or more instructions that when executed on a computing device cause the computing device to:
-
determine a context corresponding to a user state; and specify a first power mode applicable at least to a part of a wearable apparatus and a second power mode applicable to at least a part of one or more computing platforms external to and associated with the wearable apparatus based on the context, the first power mode to cause a disruption to the part of the apparatus and the second power mode to cause an activation to the art of the one or more computing platforms when the context is to indicate that action is to occur via the one or more computing platforms. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24)
