Abstract

The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method for connecting peripheral units to user devices. The method comprises detecting a communication via a first user device connectable to a peripheral unit; detecting a connection intent of the peripheral unit to connect to a second user device; and sending, to the second user device, a command to suppress a connection with the peripheral unit.

Claims (36)

1 . A computer-implemented method for connecting peripheral units to user devices, comprising:

storing historical connection data indicating which user devices were previously connected to which peripheral units under different usage circumstances;

detecting a communication session via a first user device;

detecting a connection intent of a peripheral unit to connect to a second user device;

analyzing the stored historical connection data to determine that the peripheral unit is historically associated with the first user device during communication sessions; and

causing to send, to the second user device, a command to suppress a connection with the peripheral unit based on the analyzed historical connection data.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first user device and the second user device use a user profile associated with a user.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting network conditions for the first user device and the second user device.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting battery levels for the first user device and the second user device.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting if the communication is an encrypted communication.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the communication is an incoming audio or video call or an outgoing audio or video call.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the peripheral unit is a headset, headphones, speaker, head-mounted display (HMD), smartglasses, smartwatch or smartband.

8 . A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for connecting peripheral units to user devices that, when executed by a processor, cause:

storing historical connection data indicating which user devices were previously connected to which peripheral units under different usage circumstances;

detecting a communication session via a first user device;

detecting a connection intent of a peripheral unit to connect to a second user device;

analyzing the stored historical connection data to determine that the peripheral unit is historically associated with the first user device during communication sessions; and

causing to send, to the second user device, a command to suppress a connection with the peripheral unit based on the analyzed historical connection data.

9 . The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the first user device and the second user device use a user profile associated with a user.

10 . The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the instructions further comprise detecting network conditions for the first user device and the second user device.

11 . The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the instructions further comprise detecting battery level for the first user device and the second user device.

12 . The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the instructions further comprise detecting if the communication is an encrypted communication.

13 . The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the communication is an incoming audio or video call or an outgoing audio or video call.

14 . The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the peripheral unit is a headset, headphones, speaker, head-mounted display (HMD), smartglasses, smartwatch or smartband.

15 . A system for connecting peripheral units to user devices, the system comprising: a processor;

a memory operatively connected to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause:

storing historical connection data indicating which user devices were previously connected to which peripheral units under different usage circumstances;

detecting a communication session via a first user device;

detecting a connection intent of a peripheral unit to connect to a second user device;

analyzing the stored historical connection data to determine that the peripheral unit is historically associated with the first user device during communication sessions; and

causing to send, to the second user device, a command to suppress a connection with the peripheral unit based on the analyzed historical connection data.

16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the first user device and the second user device use a user profile associated with a user.

17 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the instructions further comprise detecting network conditions for the first user device and the second user device.

18 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the instructions further comprise detecting battery level for the first user device and the second user device.

19 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the instructions further comprise detecting if the communication is an encrypted communication.

20 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the communication is an incoming audio or video call or an outgoing audio or video call.
