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.

Abstract translation: 软件从智能电视设备接收通信。 通信包括智能电视设备的设备标识符和智能电视设备的地理位置。 协同位置检测产生的地理位置是使用先前从位于智能电视设备附近的一个或多个移动设备接收的存储的地理位置。 该软件使得智能电视设备显示包括视觉图标和识别连接电视服务的消息的第一视图。 该软件接收移动设备的地理位置。 在确定智能电视设备的地理位置靠近移动设备的地理位置时，软件使得移动设备显示包括视觉图标的第二视图。 该软件从移动设备接收指示第一视图中的视觉图标与第二视图中的视觉图标之间的匹配的连接并连接该设备。
