DEVICE ASSOCIATION VIA VIDEO HANDSHAKE
First Claim
1. A method of pairing a first device with a second device, the method comprising:
- generating, by the first device, an image that includes a unique identifier for identifying the first device and a security code;
displaying the image on a display of the first device;
capturing the image by the second device using an image sensing device; and
sending the unique identifier and the security code to a server that is communicatively connected to the first device and the second device, and requesting the server to communicate with the first device, using the unique identifier, to verify the security code.

Abstract
A method of pairing a first device with a second device is disclosed. Accordingly, an image that include encoded data is generated by the first device. The encoded data includes a unique identifier for identifying the first device and an arbitrary security code. The first device displays the image on a display. The second device captures the image using an image sensing device. The encoded data is decoded to generate a decoded data. The second device sends the decoded data to a server that is communicatively connected to the first device and the second device. Upon receiving the decoded data and using the unique identifier, the server communicates with the first device to verify the arbitrary security code.
