SYSTEMS, METHODS AND TECHNIQUES FOR DEVICE PAIRING VIA A SHORT-RANGE PAIRING MECHANISM
First Claim
1. A security system for monitoring a pairing established between two devices via a short-range pairing mechanism, comprising:
- a server, andan electronic device including;
a transmitter configured to transmit data to the server,a receiver configured to receive data from the server, anda processing system including a processor, the processing system being configured to;
establish a pairing between the electronic device and a third party device through a short-range pairing mechanism,receive information from the third party device via the short-range pairing mechanism;
determine whether the pairing with the third party device is broken, andin response to the determination that the pairing with the third party device is broken, transmit information indicating the breakage of the pairing to the server,wherein the server is configured to;
receive the information indicating the breakage of the pairing from the electronic device, andupon receipt of the information indicating the breakage of the pairing between the electronic device and the third party device, issue a command to the electronic device to request the electronic device to take an action.

Abstract
Systems, methods and techniques for monitoring a pairing established between two devices via a short-range pairing mechanism. A security system comprises a server and an electronic device. The electronic device includes a transmitter configured to transmit data to the server, a receiver configured to receive data from the server, and a processing system including a processor. The processing system of the electronic device is configured to establish a pairing between the electronic device and a third party device through the short-range pairing mechanism, to receive information from the third party device via the short-range pairing mechanism, and to determine whether the pairing with the third party device is broken.

17. A method of monitoring a pairing between an electronic device and a third party device, the method comprising:
-
establishing a pairing with the third party device through a short-range pairing mechanism; receiving information from the third party device via the short-range pairing mechanism; determining whether the pairing with the third party device is broken; in response to the determination that the pairing with the third party device is broken, transmitting information indicating the breakage of the pairing to a remote server, and receiving a command from the remote server requesting the electronic device to take an action, the command being issued by the remote server upon its receipt of the information indicating the breakage of the pairing. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein, upon executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, the computer-executable instructions cause the one or more processors to:
-
establish a pairing with a third party device through a short-range pairing mechanism; receive information from the third party device via the short-range pairing mechanism; determine whether the pairing with the third party device is broken; in response to the determination that the pairing with the third party device is broken, transmit information indicating the breakage of the pairing to a remote server; and receive a command from the remote server requesting the electronic device to take an action, the command being issued by the remote server upon its receipt of the information indicating the breakage of the pairing. - View Dependent Claims (20)
