First Claim
1. A portable electronic device, the portable electronic device comprising:
- a processor;
a network interface for communicating with a wireless network;
an input device for accepting user provided information from a user of the portable electronic device;
one or more sensors for acquiring device collected information of the user of the portable electronic device;
a memory comprising instructions for causing the processor to perform the steps of;
collecting at least one of the user provided information and the portable electronic device collected information; and
transmitting at least one of the user provided information and the portable electronic device collected information to a server for communicating a status to a user contact upon occurrence of a triggering event, wherein content of the status is based on at least one of the user provided information and the device collected information, and wherein the portable electronic device is configurable to operate in two or more of plurality of operation modes, the operation modes include;

Abstract
A device and system are provided for notifying a user contact of the status of a user of a portable device. The status is determined by the portable device collecting user provided information and device collected information relevant to a user of portable device. The portable device may then transmit the device collected information and the user provided information to a server that in turn performs an analysis on the device collected information and the user provided information to determine whether a triggering event has occurred. If it is determined that a triggering event has occurred, the server will proceed to send a status update regarding the user of the portable device to preset user contacts. The triggering event is determined to have occurred based on preset user conditions and algorithms and artificial intelligence being executed at the server.
