Abstract
An approach for managing the use and distribution of power for wearable smart device is described. A wearable platform receives a notification signal for specifying sensor information associated with a sensor of a wearable smart device of a user. The wearable platform also determines a power requirement of the sensor based on the sensor information, contextual information associated with a mobile device of the user, or a combination thereof based on receipt of the signal. Still further, the wearable platform generates a request to regulate a consumption of power by the sensor or other sensors of the wearable smart device, to access a power controller for charging the sensor, or a combination thereof based on the determination, status information associated with the power controller, or a combination thereof.
