  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 17716843 Titled 'Automatic Car-Key Pairing Based on Wireless Pairing'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that can automatically pair with a car key. The device can wirelessly connect with a vehicle and receive information about the car key pairing. Once the wireless pairing is complete, the device can determine if the car key pairing is supported. If it is supported, the device can then semi-automatically pair with the car key, allowing it to function as a digital key for the vehicle using wireless communication or another communication protocol.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device that at least semi-automatically performs car-key pairing is described. During operation, the electronic device may perform wireless pairing with a second electronic device (e.g., a vehicle), where the wireless pairing establishes a connection between the electronic device and the second electronic device. Moreover, during the wireless pairing, the electronic device may receive information associated with the car-key pairing of the electronic device and the second electronic device. Then, after the wireless pairing is completed, the electronic device may determine that the car-key pairing is supported or available based at least in part on the information. Next, the electronic device may selectively and at least semi-automatically perform the car-key pairing based at least in part on the information, where the car-key pairing enables the electronic device to function as a digital key for the second electronic device using wireless communication via the wireless pairing or another communication protocol.
