Abstract:
A mobile device may be used to discretely transmit an emergency alert based on the handling of the mobile device. A mobile device may detect a particular action associated with the mobile device, such as a sequence of button presses. Based on the action, the mobile device may enter an emergency mode, which may activate an emergency feature on a mobile device that instructs the mobile device to retrieve or distribute information, such as media access control information of nearby mobile devices.
