  • Publication number: 20160226982
    Abstract: Location-based associated data management methods and systems are provided. First, first data corresponding to a first location is provided in an electronic device. Then, a current location of the electronic device is obtained via a positioning unit of the electronic device. When the current location of the electronic device and the first location are not the same, second data corresponding to the current location for the first data is received by a network connecting unit via a network.

  • Publication number: 20150296003
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing data between electronic devices are provided. First, a first electronic device outputs a first signal to an environment. A second electronic device receives a second signal from the environment via an environment data obtaining unit. In some embodiments, the first signal and the second signal are respectively transmitted to a server via a network. In other embodiments, the second signal is transmitted to the first electronic device. The server or the first electronic device determines whether the second signal conforms to the first signal. If so, specific data corresponding to the first electronic device is provided to the second electronic device. In some embodiments, when the signals received by several electronic devices conform to the first signal, data corresponding to the respective electronic devices is exchanged.
