Abstract
Systems and methods for privacy breach notification and protection enabled by the Internet of Things (IoT) are provided. Some embodiments establish a passive early warning privacy-breach detection from laser beam scan capability on a mobile device and IoT device when a particular owned object (or set of owned objects) has been laser scanned. Sensor information (e.g., laser beam sensing transparent adhesive tape, automotive cameras and proximity sensors) can be used to create notifications that allow a user to take action or to have peace of mind relating to particular activities such as to avoid fees and fines, to recover lost objects, to confirm known events, and to trigger activity.
