Patent number: 10120556Abstract: According to various exemplary embodiments, user input of a single continuous gesture from a touch-sensitive surface of a first device to a touch-sensitive surface of a second device is detected. It is determined that the gesture corresponds to a drag-and-drop operation performed on an icon displayed on the touch-sensitive surface of the first device, the icon representing user profile information. Moreover, it is determined that the gesture terminates proximate to a job position user interface element in a job recruitment user interface window displayed on the touch-sensitive surface of the second device. Thereafter, the user profile information of the user is transferred from the first device to the second device.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2015Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Yevgeniy Brikman, Bowei Gai, Matthew David Shoup

Patent number: 9736291Abstract: Systems and methods for pairing electronic devices are provided. In an example embodiment, first motion capture data corresponding to a physical user motion is received from a first device. Second motion capture data corresponding to the physical user motion is received from a second device. Features are extracted from the first motion capture data and the second motion capture data. An association between the first device and the second device is determined based on a comparison of the extracted features. In response to identifying the association between the first and second device, a communicative coupling between the first device and the second device is initiated.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2016Date of Patent: August 15, 2017Assignee: LinkedIn CorporationInventors: Bowei Gai, Matthew David Shoup, Yevgeniy Brikman

Patent number: 9578481Abstract: Systems and methods for pairing electronic devices are provided. In an example embodiment, geolocation data for a first device and a second device is received. Based on determining the first device is within a predetermined distance of the second device using the geolocation data, gesture data of the first device and second device is accessed. An association between the first device and the second device is identified based on the gesture data. A communicative coupling is initiated between the first device and the second device in response to identifying the association.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2015Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: LinkedIn CorporationInventors: Bowei Gai, Matthew David Shoup, Yevgeniy Brikman

Patent number: 9571956Abstract: Systems and methods for pairing electronic devices are provided. In an example embodiment, gesture data resulting from a physical user gesture associated with a first device and a second device is received. Features are extracted from the gesture data. An association between the first device and the second device is identified based on the extracted features. A communicative coupling is initiated between the first device and the second device in response to identifying the association.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2015Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: LinkedIn CorporationInventors: Bowei Gai, Matthew David Shoup
