A method includes transmitting a ride-share request to a ride-share server, the ride-share request including information about an accessibility device, determining a present orientation of the accessibility device, and transmitting the present orientation of the accessibility device to the ride-share vehicle. Another method includes transmitting a present orientation of an accessibility device, receiving a target orientation of the accessibility device, illuminating a light projector, determining that the accessibility device is in the target orientation, and turning off the light projector.

The present disclosure relates to a system and method for establishing a bond for allowing secure communication between a hearing aid and an external device. Especially, the system and method allows for establish the bond without one of the device present during the bonding process.

A server device includes a memory and processor. A vehicle identification number (VIN) is stored in the memory. The VIN is associated with connection information for a vehicle associated with the VIN. The processor executes A VIN matcher stored in the memory, and denies a request for connection information in response to a mismatch between a supplied VIN from a connecting device and the VIN stored in memory. The processor executes a network connector stored in the memory, and sends connection information to a connecting device in response to a match between the supplied VIN from the connecting device and the VIN stored in memory. The connection information is sent through the network connection using a first communication protocol and contains information for the connecting device to connect to the vehicle through direct pairing using a second communication protocol.

Systems and methods are provided for implementing a centralized configurator server/service in the cloud that can take the place of conventional mobile devices used for provisioning IoT devices or WiFi clients in a network. In order to provision the IoT devices or WiFi clients, a mobile device or access point (AP) may be used to relay Device Provisioning Protocol (DPP) messages and/or information between the centralized configurator server/service and the IoT devices or WiFi clients.

Techniques for providing unified user interfaces among actively paired devices, including that first and second devices are actively paired together at a first time based on a determination that the first device is in physical proximity to the second device when the first and second devices are both authenticated for a same user service account; receiving, at the first time, an indication of an actuation of a first user interface control associated with a teleconferencing session and presented by the first device; and causing, in response the receipt of the indication and the determination that the first and second devices are actively paired together at the first time, a real-time component of the teleconferencing session to be rendered by the second device while a first user associated with the user service account is joined to the teleconferencing session as a participant.

The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus, and computer program for setting an encryption key in a wireless communication system; and a recording medium for same. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for setting an encryption key size in a wireless communication system may comprise: a step in which a first controller of a first device receives a first message containing information on a minimum value of a first encryption key size from a first host of the first device; and a step in which the first controller transmits, to the first host, a second message indicating an encryption change. The second message may contain information on the first encryption key size.

An electronic monitoring system is provided that implements at least two communication paths using primary and secondary radios for facilitating self-installation or setup of electronic devices such as monitoring devices and/or various smart home devices using one of the communication paths to transmit various network and other credentials. The system may allow a device to automatically set itself up by scanning for a cooperating network device, such as a hub, that can provide network and/or user account information to the device, facilitating integration or onboarding of the device with minimal or without user action. The secondary radio may have a range at least commensurate with, and typically longer than, the range of the primary radio, permitting device setup anywhere within the system's primary coverage area.

An event is detected at a first device. Responsive to the detection, at least some functionality of the first device is deactivated. The presence of a second device, cryptographically paired with the first device, is detected by the first device. Responsive to the detection, at least some functionality of the first device is activated or reactivated.
