ABSTRACT:
A method of providing route notification to sensors within an Instant Messaging (IM) network can include estimating one or more travel route of a user having a mobile device that is IM enabled, wherein the estimated route specifies at least one future location, identifying one or more sensors within a predetermined distance of a point along the travel route(s), notifying the sensor(s) of the approaching user via the IM network, and collecting sensor information for each of the one or more sensor in anticipation of the approaching user.
