1. A computer-implemented method for interacting with a portable electronic device, comprising:
- detecting a proximity of a user of the portable electronic device to a stationary computing device;
using the proximity to obtain identity data associated with at least one of the user and the portable electronic device;
using the identity data to establish a connection with the portable electronic device; and
performing one or more tasks for the user on the stationary computing device based on a set of motion-based commands from the portable electronic device.

Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for interacting with a stationary computing device. During operation, the system detects a proximity of a user of the portable electronic device to a stationary computing device. Next, the system uses the proximity to obtain identity data associated with at least one of the user and the portable electronic device. The system then uses the identity data to establish a connection with the portable electronic device. Finally, the system performs one or more tasks for the user on the stationary computing device based on a set of motion-based commands from the portable electronic device.
