SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING A POWER MODE OF A DESIGNATED ELECTRONIC DEVICE

摘要

A system and method for managing a power mode of a designated electronic device are provided. A geographical location of a mobile electronic device is determined. A comparison of the determined geographical location of the mobile electronic device and a stored location of a designated electronic device in a power-off mode is made. A wake-up signal is sent to the designated electronic device if the determined geographical location of the mobile electronic device is within a proximity threshold of the designated electronic device, where the designated electronic device is configured to enter a power-on mode upon receipt of the wake-up signal.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for managing a power mode of a designated electronic device, the method comprising:
determining a geographical location of a mobile electronic device; comparing the determined geographical location of the mobile electronic device with a stored location of a designated electronic device in a power-off mode; sending a wake-up signal from the mobile electronic device to the designated electronic device if the determined geographical location of the mobile electronic device is within a proximity threshold of the designated electronic device, wherein the designated electronic device is configured to enter a power-on mode upon receipt of the wake-up signal; periodically updating the geographical location of the mobile device; and resetting a state of the mobile electronic device if a distance between the updated geographical location of the mobile device and the stored location of the designated electronic device exceeds the proximity threshold.
