METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MOBILE DEVICE TRANSITION TO DISTRACTION-FREE OPERATION

摘要

A method and system for transitioning between audible notification states for a computing device based on ambient lighting level brightness differentials. The method comprises receiving, via the first and second ambient lighting sensors, a first and a second ambient lighting levels from respective ones of a first surface and a second surface of the computing device, determining a brightness differential between the first and second ambient lighting levels, and transitioning at least one audible notification from an audio output source of the computing device to an alternate audio state if the brightness differential exceeds a predetermined threshold differential amount.
