==Using Motion And Presence Of An End-User In And Out Of A Monitored Environment To Trigger An Action At An Internet Of Things Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056633 titled 'Using Motion And Presence Of An End-User In And Out Of A Monitored Environment To Trigger An Action At An Internet Of Things Device

==Simplified Explanation==

The method described in the patent application involves using a Wi-Fi module in a computing device to detect when a user exits a monitored environment containing an Internet of Things (IoT) device. When the user exits, a first IoT action is triggered at the IoT device. The Wi-Fi module is then used to detect when the user reenters the monitored environment, triggering a second IoT action at the IoT device.

* The method involves using a Wi-Fi module to detect user presence in a monitored environment.
* When the user exits the environment, a first IoT action is triggered.
* Upon reentry, a second IoT action is triggered.
* The technology utilizes IoT devices and Wi-Fi connectivity to automate actions based on user presence.

* Improved security and monitoring capabilities


==Original Abstract Submitted==

in one aspect, a method includes using a wi-fi module of a computing device to detect that an end-user has exited a monitored environment of the computing device, where the monitored environment comprises an internet of things (iot) device communicatively coupled to the computing device over an iot network. the method also involves in response to detecting that the end-user has exited the monitored environment, triggering a first iot action at the iot device. the method also involves after detecting that the end-user has exited the monitored environment and triggering the first iot action, using the wi-fi module of the computing device to detect that the end-user has reentered the monitored environment. the method also involves in response to detecting that the end-user has reentered the monitored environment, triggering a second iot action at the iot device.
