Abstract
Embodiments of the invention are directed to apparatus and methods for providing motion-based communication mode selection on a mobile device. In some embodiments, a mobile device can compare a detected motion of the mobile device to a plurality of predetermined motions. Each of the plurality of predetermined motions being can be associated with a different communication mode of the mobile device. A communication mode associated with the detected motion can be identified by the mobile device based at least in part on the comparison, and the identified communication mode can correspond to a communication protocol. The mobile device can generate a data message in accordance with the communication protocol, and can provide this data message to a receiver device.
