Wireless Initialization of Electronic Devices for First Time Use
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of initializing a wrist-worn device comprising:
- reading a display of the wrist-worn device using an optical input device to obtain input corresponding to a pairing token presented at the display;
processing the input using an optical input processor to identify the pairing token;
providing the pairing token to the wrist-worn device during a handshake process that establishes a wireless communication session with the wrist-worn device; and
performing an initialization process via the wireless communication session that initializes the wrist-worn device such that the wrist-worn device is available for operation by a user following the initialization process.

Abstract
Apparatuses, devices, and methods of initializing an electronic device such as a wrist-worn device are provided. An optical input device may read the display of the wrist-worn device to obtain input corresponding to a pairing token presented at the display. An optical input processor may process the input to identify the pairing token. The pairing token may be provided to the wrist-worn device during a handshake process in order to establish a wireless communications session with the wrist-worn device. An initialization process may be performed via the wireless communication session. The initialization process may initialize the wrist-worn device such that a user may operate the wrist-worn device following the initialization process.

10. A wrist-worn device that obtains information corresponding to the movements of a user while the user wears the device, the wrist-worn device comprising:
-
a pairing token generator that generates a pairing token locally at the wrist-worn device; a display that presents the pairing token for optical reading by a configuration device; wherein the wrist-worn device establishes a wireless communication session with the configuration device through a pairing process that uses the pairing token; and wherein an initialization process is automatically initiated once the wireless communication session is established. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
