REMOTE INVOCATION OF MOBILE DEVICE ACTIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18384769 titled 'REMOTE INVOCATION OF MOBILE DEVICE ACTIONS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes systems, methods, and apparatus for invoking actions at a second user device from a first user device.

  • Determining if a first user device is associated with a second user device.
  • Accessing specification data that specifies a set of user device actions the second user device can perform.
  • Receiving command inputs for the first user device.
  • Determining if each command input resolves to one of the user device actions.
  • Processing command inputs that do not resolve to any user device actions at the first user device.
  • Displaying a dialog in the user interface of the first user device for command inputs that resolve to user device actions, allowing the user to accept or deny invoking the action at the second user device.

---

      1. Potential Applications
  • Remote control of devices from a primary device.
  • Home automation systems.
  • Multi-device gaming experiences.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Streamlining the process of controlling multiple devices.
  • Enhancing user experience by providing a simple interface for invoking actions on secondary devices.
      1. Benefits
  • Convenience of controlling multiple devices from a single interface.
  • Improved user interaction with connected devices.
  • Enhanced efficiency in managing and controlling devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems, methods and apparatus for invoking actions at a second user device from a first user device. A method includes determining that a first user device has an associated second user device; accessing specification data that specifies a set of user device actions that the second user device is configured to perform; receiving command inputs for the first user device; for each command input, determining whether the command input resolves to one of the user device actions; for each command input not determined to resolve any of the user device actions, causing the command input to be processed at the first user device; and for each command input determined to resolve one of the user device actions causing the first user device to display in a user interface a dialog by which a user may either accept or deny invoking the user device action at the second user device.
