Abstract: A method, apparatus and software related product (e.g., a computer readable memory) are presented for exchanging information between two or more devices when they are in a close proximity using gestures and web technologies. According to an embodiment, the identification of one or more devices using gestures is asynchronous, so that the two or more devices do not have to be shaken together at the same time synchronously, which is one advantage over conventional approaches. Another advantage is that various embodiments described herein do not require a user to download any special software (application), and it can work on all platforms, for example, with HTML5-compliant browsers.

Abstract: Software receives a communication from a smart-television device. The communication includes a device identifier, which is unique, for the smart-television device and a geo-location associated with the smart-television device. The software causes the smart-television device to display a first view that includes a visual icon along with a message identifying a connected-television service. The software receives a request from a mobile device to connect to the connected-television service. The request results in transmission of a geo-position from the mobile device. Upon determining that the geo-position of the smart-television device is proximate to the geo-location of the mobile device, the software causes the mobile device to display a second view that includes the visual icon for the device identifier. The software receives a communication from the mobile device that indicates a match between the visual icons. The software causes the smart-television device to display a user identifier received from the mobile device in a third view.

Abstract: Software receives a communication from a smart-television device. The communication includes a device identifier for the smart-television device and a geo-location for the smart-television device. The geo-location results from collaborative location detection that uses stored geo-positions previously received from one or more mobile devices positioned proximate to the smart-television device. The software causes the smart-television device to display a first view that includes a visual icon and a message identifying a connected-television service. The software receives a geo-position for a mobile device. Upon determining that the geo-location of the smart-television device is proximate to the geo-position of the mobile device, the software causes the mobile device to display a second view that includes the visual icon. The software receives a communication from the mobile device that indicates a match between the visual icon in the first view and the visual icon in the second view and connects the devices.
