What are the potential limitations of using sonic waveforms for device interaction? - Sonic waveforms may be affected by environmental noise or interference, potentially impacting the accuracy of identity determination.


Original Abstract Submitted

the disclosure provides for, at a host computing device, a method of interacting with a target computing device. the method includes receiving one or more sonic waveforms from the target computing device at a microphone subsystem of the host computing device. the host computing device determines an identity of the target computing device via processing of the one or more sonic waveforms. in response to said identity determination, the method includes (1) initializing a wireless data link for communication between the host computing device and the target computing device, and (2) entering a mode of host-target interactivity in which the host computing device and the target computing device interact via the wireless data link.
