    Patent number: 9606619
    Abstract: An approach is provided for brokering resources and services among multiple devices based on one or more touch-based interactions. An access platform causes, at least in part, at least one initiation of one or more touch-based interactions with at least one first device, at least one third device, or a combination thereof based, at least in part, on at least one connection request from the at least one first device, the at least one third device, or a combination thereof. The access platform determines the one or more touch-based interactions with the at least one first device, the at least one third device, or a combination thereof. The access platform further causes, at least in part, at least one access to one or more services associated with at least one second device based, at least in part, on the one or more touch-based interactions.
