Abstract
A terminal of the present disclosure includes a communicator configured to communicate using a short-range wireless protocol, a camera, and one or more processors configured to receive advertisement information from a plurality of target devices, control the camera to photograph an image of a selected target device of the plurality of target devices, and establish a connection with the selected target device via the communicator based on the photographed image of the selected target device and the received advertisement information.
Claims14
A terminal comprising:
- a communication interface configured to communicate using a short-range wireless protocol;
- a camera;
- and
- one or more processors configured to:
- receive advertisement information including shape information and distance information from a plurality of target devices;
- control the camera to photograph a selected target device of the plurality of target devices;
- input a photographed image of the selected target device to one or more trained machine learning models to obtain estimated shape information of the selected target device;
- obtain an estimated distance from the selected target device based on the photographed image;
- and
- establish a connection with the selected target device via the communication interface using the estimated shape information, the estimated distance, and the received advertisement information.
A method of establishing a connection at a terminal using a short-range wireless protocol, the method comprising:
- receiving, at the terminal, advertisement information including shape information and distance information from a plurality of target devices;
- photographing a selected target device of the plurality of target devices;
- inputting a photographed image of the selected target device to one or more trained machine learning models to obtain estimated shape information of the selected target device;
- obtaining an estimated distance from the selected target device based on the photographed image;
- and
- establishing a connection with the selected target device using the estimated shape information, the estimated distance, and the received advertisement information.
