Cooperative federation of digital devices via proxemics and device micro-mobility
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a sending device; and
a recipient device configured to;
receive content from a sending device, the sending device and the recipient device being participants in a federation established by proxemics between the sending device and the recipient device; and
render the content in partial, increasing amounts over time until the content is fully rendered, the rendering in partial, increasing amounts occurring from one direction based upon a location of the sending device relative to the recipient device to have the content appear to have come from a direction of the sending device relative to the recipient device.

Abstract
The subject disclosure is directed towards co-located collaboration/data sharing that is based upon detecting the proxemics of people and/or the proxemics of devices. A federation of devices is established based upon proxemics, such as when the users have entered into a formation based upon distance between them and orientation. User devices may share content with other devices in the federation based upon micro-mobility actions performed on the devices, e.g., tilting and/or otherwise interacting with a sending device.

9. A method comprising:
-
receiving content at a recipient device from a sending device, the sending device and the recipient device being participants in a federation established by proxemics between the sending device and the recipient device; and rendering the content on the recipient device in partial, increasing amounts over time until the content is fully rendered, the rendering in partial, increasing amounts occurring from one direction based upon a location of the sending device relative to the recipient device to have the content appear to have come from a direction of the sending device relative to the recipient device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. One or more computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions, which when executed on at least one processor perform operations comprising:
-
receiving content at a recipient device from a sending device, the sending device and the recipient device being participants in a federation established by proxemics between the sending device and the recipient device; and rendering the content on the recipient device in partial, increasing amounts over time until the content is fully rendered, the rendering in partial, increasing amounts occurring from one direction based upon a location of the sending device relative to the recipient device to have the content appear to have come from a direction of the sending device relative to the recipient device. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
