Patent Images
1. A method for registering a device, comprising;
- providing a reference pattern to a user associated with the device;
receiving a set of data defining a user pattern, said data being generated in response to user pattern information entered on the device;
comparing the set of data defining a user pattern with a set of data defining the reference pattern; and
registering the device responsive to said comparing.

Abstract
Systems and methods for facilitating registration of a device, such as a portable device, are described. A user may be provided with a reference pattern, which may then be entered onto a corresponding grid on the device. The user entered grid pattern is then stored as data, encoded, and transmitted to a registration server where it is compared to the reference pattern. If the user entered grid pattern sufficiently matches the reference pattern, the device may then be registered with the registration server and any associated server systems, where it may then be used to provide user personalized content or other functionality.

18. A system for facilitating device registration, comprising:
-
a first server configured to provide a reference pattern to a user associated with a first device; and a second server configured to store data defining the reference pattern and receive data defining a user pattern, said data defining a user pattern being generated by the first device based on input provided by the user in response to the reference pattern. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)

33. A device comprising:
-
a processor; a memory; a machine readable medium configured to store processor readable instructions; a display configured to provide an empty user pattern; a user interface configured to receive user input defining one or more selection objects in the empty user pattern so as to generate a set of data defining a user pattern, wherein the set of data defining the user pattern is stored in the memory; and a communication module configured to provide a network connection to a server and transmit to the server, via the network connection, the set of data defining the user pattern. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35, 36)
