  • Publication number: 20160241989
    Abstract: In an interactive communication system, one or more stations enter a scan mode to receive ID codes transmitted by wearable devices and transmit the ID codes to a server. The server receives the ID codes and transmits a command to one of the wearable devices via at least one of the stations. The one of the wearable devices receives the command via the at least one of the stations and transmits a feedback, in response to the command, to the server. The stations can detect signal strengths of the wearable devices. The server can determine a location of each of the wearable devices according to the ID codes and the signal strengths detected by the stations.

  • Publication number: 20160147351
    Abstract: A method for protecting data of an electronic device includes determining a touch region on a display panel of the electronic device and acquiring touch points on the touch region using a pressure sensor of the electronic device, in response to detecting that the display panel has been pressed using the pressure sensor. A pressure value of each of the touch points is acquired using the pressure sensor. According to the pressure value of each of the touch points, an average pressure value on the touch region is computed. A preset pressure value is acquired. When the average pressure value is more than the preset pressure value, it is determined that whether the display panel is functioning. When the display panel is not functioning, data in the storage device is protected by encrypting the data.

  • Publication number: 20160104326
    Abstract: Method of paying a toll of a vehicle using an electronic device includes sending user information of the vehicle to a server, and requesting the server to allocate an identification code for paying the toll. When the identification code is received from the server, the identification code is encrypted using a preset encryption algorithm. Encrypted identification code is sent to the server, when a payment notice is received. The toll is deducted according to a preset toll collection rule from an account corresponding to a decrypted identification code, which is obtained by decrypting the encrypted identification code by the server.
