Abstract
Described is a system and device for monitoring a computing device. The system comprises a mobile host computing device and a portable peripheral device detachably coupled to the host device. The peripheral device includes a microprocessor and a sensor. When the peripheral device is coupled to the host device, the sensors detect changes of at least one of spatial orientation and motion of the host device to generate data. The microprocessor compares the data to predetermined calibration data to detect an occurrence of an event.
