Context aware geofencing

摘要

In one embodiment an electronic device comprises a display, a motion sensor, one or more wireless communication devices, and logic configured to receive, in the controller, data indicating that the controller is in motion, determine a velocity of the controller, and activate a first location service to determine a coarse location of the controller when the velocity of the controller falls above a predetermined threshold for a predetermined period of time. Other embodiments may be described.

主权项

1. A context aware apparatus, comprising:
logic, at least partially including hardware logic, configured to:
receive, in the controller, data indicating that the controller is in motion;determine a velocity of the controller;activate a first location service to determine a coarse location of the controller when the velocity of the controller falls above a predetermined threshold for a predetermined period of time; define a first region around the coarse location; determine whether at least one part of one or more geofences overlaps with the first region suspend use of the first location service in response to a determination that no geofences fall within the first region activate a wireless fidelity network scanner in response to a determination that one or more geofences fall within the first region; and determine a location from one or more wireless fidelity broadcast beacons.
