First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for pairing a first device with a second device, comprising:
- receiving, by the first device, a series of images corresponding to a graphic image or object comprising a dynamic graphic pattern having a shape that changes over time, the series of images being associated with the second device for pairing with the second device, and the series of images being displayed on the second device;
recognizing, by the first device, the series of images associated with the second device; and
pairing with the second device, if the series of images associated with the second device is recognized.

Abstract
An electronic device includes an imaging device to capture image data. At least one processor is configured to: process the image data to determine whether the image data includes a graphic that changes over time, and pair the electronic device with a second electronic device in response to a determination that the image data includes the graphic that changes over time.
