  • Applications start based on target distances
    Patent number: 10901753
    Abstract: In example implementations, a method for starting a companion application on a mobile endpoint device and an apparatus for performing the same is provided. The method is performed by a processor of the mobile endpoint device. The method includes detecting that a distance between the mobile endpoint device and a main computer is less than a target distance. The distance is based on a signal strength of a wireless communication signal between the mobile endpoint device and the main computer. An application that is being executed on the main computer is detected. A companion application is started on the mobile endpoint device that is associated with the application.

  • Meeting passcodes
    Patent number: 10862693
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to meeting passcodes. In an example, meeting passcodes can employ a meeting hub including an antenna and a controller coupled to the antenna to wirelessly receive, via the antenna, information including a first meeting passcode from a meeting device, generate a second meeting passcode in response to receipt of the first meeting passcode, cause the second meeting passcode to be sent to a registered user of meeting device, and admit the meeting device to a meeting using the second meeting passcode.
