1. A method for transferring data, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a parent device, an initiating non-touch gesture performed by a user towards the parent device;
triggering, by the parent device, gesture recognition on one or more secondary devices based on the detecting;
receiving an indication at the parent device that the gesture recognition of at least one device of the one or more secondary devices detected a completing non-touch gesture; and
transferring data from the parent device to the at least one device in response to the received indication.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to multi device pairing and sharing via non-touch gestures. In an embodiment, a method comprises detecting, by a parent device, an initiating non-touch gesture performed by a user towards the parent device. The method also comprises initiating an action based on the detecting. The method further comprises triggering, by the parent device, a gesture recognition mode on one or more secondary devices based on the detecting. And the method further comprises completing the action upon a positive gesture recognition by the one or more secondary devices.

17. A device, comprising:
-
a sensor configured to detect an initiating non-touch gesture performed by a user towards the device; and a transceiver configured to trigger gesture recognition on one or more secondary devices based on a gesture detected by the sensor, receive an indication that the gesture recognition of at least one device of the one or more secondary devices detected a completing non-touch gesture, and transfer data to the at least one device in response to the received indication. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)

34. A non-transitory computer readable medium on which are stored computer readable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
-
detect, by a parent device, an initiating non-touch gesture performed by a user towards the parent device; trigger, by the parent device, gesture recognition on one or more secondary devices based on the detecting; receive an indication at the parent device that the gesture recognition of at least one device of the one or more secondary devices detected a completing non-touch gesture; and transfer data from the parent device to the at least one device in response to the received indication.

35. A method for receiving data, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by a secondary device, trigger data from a parent device in connection with initiating a transfer; turning on gesture recognition by the secondary device based on the received trigger data from the parent device; and upon detecting a completion non-touch gesture with the gesture recognition, transmitting a message to the parent device and receiving data in response. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
