PROXIMITY SENSING DEVICE CONTROL ARCHITECTURE AND DATA COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- monitoring one or more devices in wireless data communication over a data network;
receiving wirelessly, one or more data packets from each of the one or more devices;
filtering the one or more data packets by evaluating a received signal strength of each of the one or more packets, the one or more packets being ordered in a priority based on a value; and
comparing the received signal strength of each of the one or more packets to a threshold to determine whether the one or more devices are to perform an action.

Abstract
Mobile device speaker control may include: monitoring one or more devices coupled (e.g., wired or wirelessly) with a data network, receiving one or more data packets from each of the one or more devices, filtering received data packets by evaluating a received signal strength (e.g., RSSI) of the received packets. The received packets may be ordered in a priority based on a value, and comparing the received signal strength of each of the received packets to a threshold to determine whether the one or more devices are to perform an action; and/or detecting a device within a proximity of a speaker box coupled with a data network, filtering a data packet received from the device to determine a received signal strength associated with the device, comparing the received signal strength to a threshold, and determining whether an action is to be performed based on a result of the comparing.

12. A system, comprising:
-
a memory operative to store one or more data packets received from one or more devices operative to wirelessly transmit data over a data network; and a processor operative to monitor the one or more devices, to receive the one or more data packets from each of the one or more devices, to filter the one or more data packets by evaluating a received signal strength of each of the one or more packets, the one or more packets being ordered in a priority based on a value, and to compare the received signal strength of each of the one or more packets to a threshold to determine whether the one or more devices are to perform an action. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium and comprising computer executable instructions for:
-
monitoring one or more devices in wireless data communication over a wireless network; receiving wirelessly, one or more data packets from each of the one or more devices; filtering the one or more data packets by evaluating a received signal strength of each of the one or more packets, the one or more packets being ordered in a priority based on a value; and comparing the received signal strength of each of the one or more packets to a threshold to determine whether the one or more devices are to perform an action.
