CONTENT TRANSFER VIA SKIN INPUT
First Claim
1. A method for transmitting content from a first device to a second device, the method comprising:
- detecting, by an interface device, an input received on a user'"'"'s skin, wherein the interface device is in communication with at least one of the first device or the second device, wherein the interface device comprises at least one sensor, microphone, or camera that detects a vibration associated with the user'"'"'s body when the input is received on the user'"'"'s skin;
in response to detecting the input, determining the type of input; and
at least one of;
in response to determining the type of input is a first type of input, initiating transmission of content from the first device to the second device;
orin response to determining the type of input is a second type of input, initiating reception of content at the second device.

Abstract
The invention is directed to systems, methods and computer program products for transferring content between electronic devices via skin input. An exemplary method includes detecting, by an interface device, an input received on a user'"'"'s skin, wherein the interface device is in electronic communication with at least one of the first device or the second device; in response to detecting the input, determining the type of input; and at least one of: in response to determining the type of input is a first type of input, initiating transmission of content from the first device to the second device; or in response to determining the type of input is a second type of input, initiating reception of content at the second device.

19. A system for transmitting content from a first device to a second device, the system comprising:
-
an interface device comprising at least one sensor, microphone, or camera that detects a vibration associated with the user'"'"'s body; and a processor configured to determine a type of input based at least partially on the vibration; and at least one of; in response to determining the type of input is a first type of input, initiate transmission of content from the first device to the second device;
orin response to determining the type of input is a second type of input, initiate reception of content at the second device, wherein the system is in communication with at least one of the first device or the second device.
