Abstract

The disclosure relates to mechanisms that may be used to route notifications in an Internet of Things (IoT) environment according to user activity and/or proximity detection. More particularly, in various embodiments, an entity that manages the IoT environment may receive one or more messages, actions, or responses that indicate detected activity or detected proximity associated with one or more users from one or more IoT devices in the IoT environment. The management entity may then establish an activity and proximity trail from the one or more messages, actions, or responses that indicate the detected activity or the detected proximity, whereby in response to an IoT device reporting one or more notifications, an IoT device in proximity to at least one of the one or more users may be identified and the one or more notifications may be routed to the identified IoT device.
