LOST DEVICE RETURN

摘要

Systems, apparatus and methods of reducing or eliminating device loss are described herein. A computing device may receive a user input. The user input may include a proximity preference. The computing device may generate an alert signal upon detecting that a distance between the computing device and the user has increased beyond the first proximity preference. The detecting may be based on sensing a characteristic of the user, such as a voice characteristic or a facial characteristic, or upon detecting that a signal between a user headset and the computing device has diminished in strength.

主权项

1. A device comprising:
a user interface to receive a user input of a first proximity preference, the first proximity preference indicating a distance between the device and a first user; at least one sensor to sense at least one characteristic of the first user; a detection module to determine, based on the at least one characteristic, whether the distance to the first user has increased beyond the first proximity preference, and an alert module to generate an alert signal based on the determination.
