SMART CONTROL OF AN ALERT OF AN INCOMING COMMUNICATION TO A DATA PROCESSING DEVICE

摘要

A method includes determining, through a processor of a data processing device in conjunction with one or more sensor(s) associated therewith, an intent of a user of the data processing device to respond to an alert of an incoming communication thereto expressed through a sound volume level and/or a vibrational level of the alert. The method also includes automatically reducing, through the processor, the sound volume level and/or the vibrational level of the alert following the determination of the intent of the user to respond to the alert.

1. A method comprising:
determining, through a processor of a data processing device in conjunction with at least one sensor associated therewith, an intent of a user of the data processing device to respond to an alert of an incoming communication, wherein the at least one sensor comprises an image sensor that captures an image of the user indicative of the intent of the user; and automatically reducing, through the processor, a vibrational level of the alert based on the determined intent of the user to respond to the alert.
