Abstract
A method and mobile device are provided that permits hands-free enablement of Push-to-Talk (PTT) functionality. When the mobile device is being used by a user, the mobile device determines, via an eye detector of the mobile device, a presence of an eye of a user and detects, via a microphone of the mobile device, an audio input from the user. When the mobile device determines the presence of the eye of the user and determines that the detected audio input is greater than an audio intensity threshold, the mobile device enables the PTT functionality and transmits voice that is input to the mobile device by the user as part of a PTT communication session. Thus, the user may participate in a PTT communication and transmit voice communications notwithstanding an inability of the user to press a PTT button or key of the mobile device.
