Mobile device pairing

摘要

Systems and methods for pairing electronic devices are provided. In an example embodiment, gesture data resulting from a physical user gesture associated with a first device and a second device is received. Features are extracted from the gesture data. An association between the first device and the second device is identified based on the extracted features. A communicative coupling is initiated between the first device and the second device in response to identifying the association.

1. A system comprising:
a processor, and a memory including instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the system to:
receive gesture data resulting from a physical user gesture associated with a first device and a second device;extract from the gesture data a first feature corresponding to the first device, the first feature comprising first and second straight-line distances between respective entry points and exit points of the physical user gesture on a touchscreen of the first device;extract from the gesture data a second feature corresponding to the second device, the second feature comprising third and fourth straight-line distances between respective entry points and exit points of the physical user gesture on a touchscreen of the second device;access physical device parameters for the first device and the second device, the physical device parameters respectively comprising a number of pixels along the first and second distances and a number of pixels along the third and fourth distances;identify an association between the first device and the second device based on a comparison of the first feature and the second feature using the physical device parameters for the first device and the second device; andin response to identifying the association between the first device and the second device, initiate a communicative coupling between the first device and the second device.
