Abstract

A system manages alarms across connected electronic devices by detecting companion devices within an environment and determining their relative locations to an authorized user. The system actuates an alarm on the device closest to the user. If no user input is detected, the system shifts the alarm to the next closest device. This dynamic alarm management ensures user engagement by leveraging spatial arrangements of devices, thereby reducing the risk of oversleeping. The system includes various electronic devices such as smartphones, smartwatches, and Internet of Things devices, and can operate in a daisy-chain mode or simultaneously across multiple devices.
