  • PRIVACY SWITCH FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240414235
    Abstract: A mobile device can comprise: a power source, one or more sensors, a communication device, and an actuator. The power source can provide power to one or more components of the mobile device. The one or more sensors can generate sensor data. The communication device can be removably coupled to the power source to receive power therefrom and can communicate with one or more computing devices remote to the mobile device. The actuator can transition between at least a first state and a second state to cause the communication device to electrically disconnect from the power source to terminate communication of the communication device with the one or more computing devices remote to the mobile device. The one or more sensors can generate sensor data when the actuator is in the first state or the second state.

  • Privacy switch for mobile communications device
    Patent number: 12126683
    Abstract: A mobile device may comprise: a power source, one or more sensors, a communication device, and an actuator. The power source can be configured to provide power to one or more components of the mobile device. The one or more sensors can be configured to generate sensor data. The communication device can be removably coupled to the power source to receive power therefrom and can be further configured to communicate with one or more computing devices remote to the mobile device. The actuator can be configured to transition between at least a first state and a second state to cause the communication device to electrically disconnect from the power source to terminate communication of the communication device with the one or more computing devices remote to the mobile device. The one or more sensors can be configured to generate sensor data when the actuator is in the first state or the second state.
