1. A method comprising:
- obtaining a measure of a mammalian body temperature, the measure based on at least one body temperature sensed at a second device remote from a first device;
concluding a criterion is satisfied when the measure is less than a first threshold corresponding to an expected body temperature and the measure approaches a second threshold corresponding to an ambient temperature; and
initiating a control of the first user device when the criterion is satisfied.

Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are provided. The apparatus obtains a measure of a mammalian body temperature. The measure is based on at least one body temperature sensed at a second device remote from a first device. The apparatus concludes a criterion is satisfied when the measure is less than a first threshold corresponding to an expected body temperature and the measure approaches a second threshold corresponding to an ambient temperature. The apparatus initiates a control of the first user device when the criterion is satisfied.
