Systems, apparatus, and methods for programmatically associating nearby users

摘要

Systems, apparatus, methods, and non-transitory media for programmatically associating nearby users are discussed herein. Some embodiments may include user-wearable gesture exchange device including a motion sensor and circuitry. The motion sensor may be configured to generate motion data values indicating motion of the gesture exchange device. The circuitry may be configured to monitor motion data values generated by the motion sensor for detection of a gesture exchange signature, such as a handshake, being performed by the user. In some embodiments, the gesture exchange device may be configured to establish a wireless communication connection with a second gesture exchange device for exchange of user data, such as in response to detecting user performance of the gesture exchange signature and/or determining that the second gesture exchange device is within a predetermined proximity.

主权项

1. A gesture exchange device for transmitting user contact information, comprising:
a motion sensor worn by a user that is configured to generate motion data values indicative of a particular type of motion of the gesture exchange device; and circuitry configured to:
receive one or more motion data values from the motion sensor;determine a live gesture exchange signature of the user based on the one or more motion data values received from the motion sensor;determine whether the live gesture exchange signature matches a predetermined gesture exchange signature for the user; andin response to determining that the live gesture exchange signature matches the predetermined gesture exchange signature for the user, wirelessly send contact information associated with the user.
