1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- transmitting an instruction for a computing device to display one or more particular shapes on a display associated with the computing device;
receiving motion data corresponding to motion of a mobile computing device;
determining that (i) the motion of the mobile computing device is associated with one or more of the particular shapes, and (ii) a difference between a first time when the one or more particular shapes are displayed on a display associated with the computing device and a second time when the motion data was received is less than a predetermined duration; and
in response to determining that (i) the motion of the mobile computing device is associated with one or more of the particular shapes, and (ii) the difference between a first time when the one or more particular shapes are displayed on a display associated with the computing device and a second time when the motion data was received is less than a predetermined duration, pairing the mobile computing device with (i) the display, or (ii) the computing device associated with the display.

Abstract
A user may associate a mobile device such as a smartphone with a public device by imitating a movement pattern for a target with a movement pattern of the mobile device. The physical movement of the smartphone may be compared to the movement data for the target. If there is a match, the public device and the mobile device may be associated with one another. The association may allow a user to interact with the public device using the smartphone.

9. A system, comprising:
-
one or more computers programmed to perform operations comprising; transmitting an instruction for a computing device to display one or more particular shapes on a display associated with the computing device; receiving motion data corresponding to motion of a mobile computing device; determining that (i) the motion of the mobile computing device is associated with one or more of the particular shapes, and (ii) a difference between a first time when the one or more particular shapes are displayed on a display associated with the computing device and a second time when the motion data was received is less than a predetermined duration; and in response to determining that (i) the motion of the mobile computing device is associated with one or more of the particular shapes, and (ii) the difference between a first time when the one or more particular shapes are displayed on a display associated with the computing device and a second time when the motion data was received is less than a predetermined duration, pairing the mobile computing device with (i) the display, or (ii) the computing device associated with the display. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computer storage medium encoded with a computer program, the program comprising instructions that when executed by data processing apparatus cause the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
-
transmitting an instruction for a computing device to display one or more particular shapes on a display associated with the computing device; receiving motion data corresponding to motion of a mobile computing device; determining that (i) the motion of the mobile computing device is associated with one or more of the particular shapes, and (ii) a difference between a first time when the one or more particular shapes are displayed on a display associated with the computing device and a second time when the motion data was received is less than a predetermined duration; and in response to determining that (i) the motion of the mobile computing device is associated with one or more of the particular shapes, and (ii) the difference between a first time when the one or more particular shapes are displayed on a display associated with the computing device and a second time when the motion data was received is less than a predetermined duration, pairing the mobile computing device with (i) the display, or (ii) the computing device associated with the display. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
