An alarm clock device is provided that includes a cup portion and a component housing. The component housing is coupled to a lower edge of the cup portion. The component housing includes a circuit board, a micro controller mounted on the circuit board, an orientation sensing component in communication with the micro controller and detecting movement of the alarm apparatus, and a speaker in communication with the micro controller emitting an audible alarm at a time designated by a user. A light ring is in communication with the micro controller and coupled to the alarm clock device between the cup portion and the component housing. The light ring illuminates the cup portion at the time designated by the user.

The alarm clock having a motion sensor and mobile device connectivity is an alarm clock providing connectivity with a cellular telephone, smartphone or any similar suitable type of mobile device. The alarm clock having a motion sensor and mobile device connectivity includes an optical projector for projecting an image representative of a display screen of the mobile device on an external display surface, such as a wall or a ceiling. The alarm clock having a motion sensor and mobile device connectivity includes a housing for receiving a clock controller. A clock display, audio alarm, motion sensor, optical projector and a device interface are each mounted on the housing and are in communication with the clock controller. Actuation of the motion sensor by detected movement of a user's hand or the like selectively actuates the optical projector to project the image representative of the display screen of the mobile device.

A computer implemented method, device and product are provided. The method is under control of one or more processors with specific executable program instructions to obtain presence data indicative of one or more people in an environment and analyze the presence data to determine activity of the one or more people in the environment. The method determines a first notification preference and a second notification preference based on the activity of the one or more people in the environment and generates a command to apply the first notification preference or the second notification preference at a predetermined time.

A watch can include a user input component that employs an optical sensor to receive input from a user. The input components provide an ability for a user to interact with the watch in a manner similar to how a user would interact with a crown that is rotatable and/or translatable. The user can provide motions and gestures near the input component that the input component can detect and interpret and user inputs to control an aspect of the watch. The motions and gestures provided by the user can be directly detected with optical systems of the input component, so that the number of moving parts are reduced and space within the watch is more efficiently utilized. While providing these benefits, the input component provides a user experience that simulates user interactions with a crown that is rotatable and/or translatable.

A control method includes acquiring time information including a wake-up set time; acquiring a sleep state of a sleeper who is stimulated by a stimulation device; determining a change of the sleep state; causing the stimulation device to start increasing a stimulus which urges the sleeper to awake at a control start time as time before the wake-up set time by a predetermined time period; and controlling a change amount of the stimulus based on the change of the sleep state with the stimulus.
