  • Adaptive electronic event reminder
    Patent number: 10664151
    Abstract: Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for creating event reminders on a computational system. Aspects include a non-transitory storage medium readable by a processing circuit and storing instructions for execution by the processing circuit, the processing circuit configured to receive a user input, the user input comprising an event identifier. Aspects also include a user interface comprising a haptic sensor, a user input interface, and an output display. Aspects also include an electronic event reminder configured to display an event reminder that is generated by the processing circuit based at least in part upon the user input, wherein the event reminder comprises an aspect characteristic that changes over time.
    Type: Grant
