COMMUNICATING WIRELESS PAIRING INFORMATION FOR PAIRING AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE TO A HOST SYSTEM

摘要

During a pairing procedure between an electronic device and a host system, the host system may output audiovisual data that communicates wireless pairing information. The electronic device may detect the audiovisual data and determine the wireless pairing information by processing the audiovisual data that it detects. The wireless pairing information may facilitate pairing the electronic device to the host system in accordance with the short-range wireless communication protocol.

主权项

1. A device for pairing to a host system, the device comprising:
a wireless communication module that implements a short-range wireless communication protocol; a data detector that detects audiovisual data that is output by the host system during a pairing procedure that is performed in accordance with the short-range wireless communication protocol, wherein the audiovisual data communicates wireless pairing information, and wherein the wireless pairing information is discernible by humans when the audiovisual data is output by the host system; and a recognition module that determines the wireless pairing information by processing the audiovisual data.
