METHOD AND SYSTEM TO CONFIGURE MOBILE ELECTRONIC DEVICE SETTINGS USING REMOTE DATA STORE ANALYTICS

摘要

A mobile electronic device application uses various hardware parameters for operation. The application leverages calibration data from other users to determine what the parameters should be for the particular device model on which the application is installed. The application queries a cloud-based data store by sending the model and a hardware-variable parameter to the data store. If a value for the parameter is available in the data store, the application will receive it from the data store and use it in operation. If the value is not available, the application will prompt the user to calibrate the application. The application will use the calibration results to identify a setting, and it will send the setting to the data store for use by other instances in which the application is installed on the same model device.

1. A method of configuring an application of a mobile electronic device, comprising:
by a processor of a mobile electronic device, executing programming instructions for a software application installed on the electronic device by:
detecting a model of the electronic device;identifying a hardware-variable parameter of an image capturing sensor of the electronic device;querying a data store by sending the model and the parameter to the data store;receiving a reply from the data store, wherein the reply comprises a value for the parameter;based on the reply, establishing a setting for the image capturing sensor of the electronic device; andusing the setting in operation of the software application.
