Using touches to transfer information between devices
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- detecting, by a device that includes a touch screen, information transmitted in response to a first set of one or more touches of a remote graphical object, on a remote device, where the first set of one or more touches form a first pattern;
identifying a first set of one or more parameters, associated with the first pattern, where the first set of one or more parameters are used to encrypt the information;
detecting a second set of one or more touches on the touch screen, where the second set of one or more touches form a second pattern;
identifying a second set of one or more parameters associated with the second pattern;
decrypting the encrypted information based on a comparison of the first set of one or more parameters to the second set of one or more parameters; and
providing the decrypted information to a user of the device.

Abstract
A device may comprise a display and a processor. The processor may obtain a first set of one or more touches on a remote surface of a remote device based on a signal received on a communication link between the device and the remote device. receive information associated with the first set of one or more touches through the signal. detect a gesture on the display, and determine whether the information is to be used to obtain content based on the gesture.

9. A device comprising:
-
a touch screen; a memory to store a first set of one or more parameters associated with decrypting information; and a processor configured to; detect one or more touches on a remote radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag, receive, in response to the one or more touches, encrypted information from the remote RFID tag, identify a pattern formed by a gesture on the touch screen, identify a second set of one or more parameters associated with the pattern, decrypt the information based on a comparison of the first set of one or more parameters to the second set of one or more parameters associated with the pattern, and provide the decrypted information to a user of the device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A device comprising:
-
a display; and a processor to; obtain, by a signal received on a communication link between the device and a remote device, encrypted information from the remote device, where the encrypted information is encrypted based on a first set of one or more parameters that are associated with a first pattern, formed by a first set of one or more touches on a surface of the remote device; detect a gesture on the display; identify a second set of one or more parameters associated with a second pattern formed by the gesture; decrypt the encrypted information based on the first set of one or more parameters, associated with the first pattern, matching the second set of one or more parameters associated with the second pattern; and provide the decrypted information to a user of the device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A device comprising:
-
means for receiving encrypted information that is transmitted from a remote device and that is associated with a graphical object at a remote display included in the remote device, where the information is encrypted based on a first set of at least one parameter; means for detecting a pattern formed by a gesture on a local display; means for identifying a second set of at least one parameter associated with the pattern; means for decrypting the encrypted information based on a comparison of the first set of at least one parameter to the second set of at least one parameter associated with the pattern; and means for providing the decrypted information to a user of the device.
