  • Method and apparatus for providing safety services relating to mobile devices
    Patent number: 9860671
    Abstract: An approach for providing feature configuration management is described. A service controller platform, monitors at least one environmental parameter of a mobile device; determines an event according to a threshold, the event being based on at least a change in the at least one environmental parameter; determines a feature configuration setting associated with at least one of the threshold or the event according to a device profile, wherein the device profile specifies a feature configuration setting that includes at least one of locking the mobile device, limiting access to at least one predetermined application, or disabling the mobile device; and causes the mobile device to change a feature configuration according to the feature configuration setting.

  • Method and apparatus for providing shared user interface view
    Patent number: 9787759
    Abstract: An approach for providing a shared user interface view is described. A user interface view sharing platform may present a user interface view at a first device for interacting with a second device, wherein the first device has an interface to the second device. The user interface view sharing platform may further encode the user interface view, data associated with the first device, other data associated with the second device, or a combination thereof into a data payload. The user interface view sharing platform may also transmit the data payload to a third device, wherein the user interface view, the data associated with the first device, the other data associated with the second device, or a combination thereof is reconstructed at the third device for interacting with the second device via the third device based on the data payload.
