METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DEVICE PAIRING

摘要

A device (102 or 104 or 301) and method (400) of pairing electronic devices can include detecting (402) a physical orientation of at least two electronic devices, detecting (404) acceleration data when the at least two electronic devices are initially shaken together in immediate proximity, generating (406) a code shared by the at least two electronic devices when initially shaken together, and pairing (408) the at least two electronic devices by using an accelerometer (311) when the at least two electronic devices are subsequently shaken together and a match is found with the acceleration data and the shared code among the at least two electronic devices.
