International Classification:

H04M 1/725
H04W 4/02

Abstract:

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to monitor the personal safety of a user of a portable electronic device are disclosed. Example safety managers disclosed herein include processor circuitry to determine whether data collected from a remote electronic device corresponds to a first usage context profile associated with the remote electronic device, obtain a threshold alert level corresponding to the first usage context profile when the collected data corresponds to the first usage context profile, the threshold alert level to indicate a degree of danger to which a user is exposed, adjust the threshold alert level based on information obtained from a data source different from the remote electronic device, monitor usage attributes reported by the remote electronic device to determine whether the threshold alert level has been satisfied, and actuate a safety alert associated with the remote electronic device when the threshold alert level has been satisfied.

International Classification:

H04M 1/725
H04W 4/02

Abstract:

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to monitor the personal safety of a user of a portable electronic device are disclosed. The safety monitor includes a usage context analyzer to determine a usage context in which the portable electronic device is used based on a history of past usage information. The safety monitor also includes a current usage detector, a threshold alert level monitor, and a safety alert actuator. The current usage detector determines whether the portable electronic device is being used in the usage context at a current time, and, if so, obtains a corresponding threshold alert level that indicates a degree of danger to which a user of the portable electronic device is exposed. The threshold alert level monitor determines whether the threshold alert level has been satisfied, and, if so, the safety alert actuator actuates an output device of the portable electronic device.
