Patent number: 10911922Abstract: A host device, such as a laptop or desktop computer, that supports wireless point-to-point connections with peripheral devices, such as a pair of headphones, mouse, etc., is configured with quick pair with which the host device can automatically surface a toast on the UI for the user to pair the host and peripheral devices when the peripheral device is within range. For example, a pattern within an advertisement payload can be transmitted, or beaconed, by the peripheral device to the host device, where the host device then identifies, based on the pattern, that the peripheral device is quick pair enabled. When the peripheral device is within range, the host device then automatically surfaces a toast for the user to pair the two devices, and moves the toast to a notification center in case the user wishes to pair the device at a later time.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2019Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Steven Mathew Ilami, Heming Wen, Artur Moura Aguiar, Maxim Kudryavtsev, Steffen Froehlich

Patent number: 10609537Abstract: A host device, such as a laptop or desktop computer, that supports wireless point-to-point connections with a peripheral device, such as a pair of headphones, mouse, etc., is configured with a proximity platform with which services register to execute particular filters or scenarios upon the host device connecting or attempting to connect with a peripheral device. For example, an advertisement packet transmitted from the peripheral device using Bluetooth may be customized with a particular pattern that corresponds to one or more registered patterns from the registered services, thereby causing the proximity platform to perform particular functions. Peripheral devices can thereby customize their products so that a host computer automatically performs a function upon receiving an advertisement from the peripheral device, such as surface a notification on a user interface of the host device or track the peripheral device's location.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2017Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing LLCInventors: Steven Mathew Ilami, Heming Wen, Artur Moura Aguiar, Matthew Thomas Beaver, Frank Gorgenyi, Robert Zi Long Zhao
