Wireless pairing and communication between devices using biometric data
First Claim
1. A system for wireless pairing and communication between devices using biometrics, the system comprising:
- a device, comprising;
a processing unit;
a wireless communication component coupled to the processing unit;
a touchscreen display coupled to the processing unit;
a biometric sensor coupled to the processing unit; and
a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions executable by the processing unit to cause the device to;
display a pairing prompt on the touchscreen display when a host and the device are in wireless communication range of each other;
capture biometric data using the biometric sensor when a user initiates pairing using the touchscreen display; and
receive a configuration file from the host based at least on the captured biometric data, wherein;
the configuration file specifies an arrangement of one or more navigation items in a user interface of the host; and
the device reconfigures, based at least in part on the configuration file, an arrangement of one or more navigation items in a user interface of the device according to the arrangement of the one or more navigation items in the user interface of the host, thereby causing a configuration of the device to resemble the configuration of the host.

Abstract
In a first implementation, a host determines to pair with a device and transmits biometric data for a user to the device. The device receives the transmitted biometric data and compares such to device biometric data to determine whether or not to pair with the host and/or what data stored by the device to allow the host to access. The host then accesses data of the device to which the device has allowed access. In another implementation, a device determines to pair with a host and transmits biometric data for a user to the host. The host receives the transmitted biometric data and compares such to device biometric data to determine whether or not to pair with the device and/or what data stored by the host to allow the device to access. The device then accesses data of the host to which the host has allowed access.

4. A system for wireless pairing and communication between devices using biometrics, comprising:
a device comprising; a processing unit; a wireless communication component coupled to the processing unit; a user interface component configured to captured biometric data; and a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions executable by the processing unit to cause the device to; capture biometric data using the user interface component when a user initiates pairing with a host; transmit the biometric data to the host utilizing the wireless communication component; and receive a configuration file associated with a configuration of the host based at least on the transmitted biometric data, wherein; the configuration file specifies an arrangement of one or more navigation items in a user interface of the host; and in response to receiving the configuration file, the device reconfigures an arrangement of one or more navigation items in a user interface of the device to be substantially the same as the arrangement of the one or more navigation items in the user interface of the host. - View Dependent Claims (5)

13. A method for wireless paring and communication between devices using biometrics, the method comprising:
-
determining, utilizing a device, to pair with a host; capturing biometric data, utilizing a user interface component in the device, when initiating pairing with the host; transmitting, utilizing a wireless communication component in the device, the biometric data to the host; receiving, by the device, a configuration file associated with a configuration of the host based at least on the transmitted biometric data, the configuration file specifying an arrangement of one or more navigation items in a user interface of the host; and changing, by the device, based at least in part on the configuration file, an arrangement of one or more navigation items in a user interface of the device to be substantially the same as the arrangement of the one or more navigation items in the user interface of the host. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
