Service providing terminal connection method and apparatus

A method for device control performed by a second device to allow a first device to control services provided by a service providing device, the method comprising:

• executing at least one application related to the service providing device;
• connecting a first device through out-of-band communication;
• and
• transmitting identification information related to the service providing device to the first device,
• wherein the identification information is related to the at least one application.

A method for device control performed by a service providing device providing services controllable by a second device, the method comprising:

• connecting a first device through in-band communication;
• obtaining identification information related to the first device from the first device;
• determining services that controllable by the first device based on the obtained identification information;
• and
• controlling the services provided by the service providing device according to the determined services and a control command received from the first device.

A method for device control performed by a service providing device providing services controllable by a second device, the method comprising:

• obtaining identification information related to a first device from the second device;
• connecting the first device through in-band communication using the identification information;
• determining services that controllable by the first device based on the obtained identification information;
• and
• controlling the services provided by the service providing device according to the determined services and a control command received from the first device.

A first device comprising:

• a first communicator configured to connect, through out-of-band communication, to a second device that includes identification information related to a service providing device, and receive the identification information related to the service providing device from the second device;
• a second communicator configured to connect, through in-band communication, to the service providing device by using the received identification information;
• and
• a controller configured to execute at least one application related to the received identification information and control the services provided by the service providing device.

A second device comprising:

• an out-of-band communicator for transmitting identification information related to a service providing device to a first device through out-of-band communication;
• and
• a controller for executing at least one application related to the service providing device,
• wherein the identification information is related to the at least one application.

A device control system comprising:

• a first device;
• a second device;
• and
• a service providing device,
• wherein the first device and the second device are configured to connect using out-of-band communication and exchange communication information related to the service providing device,
• wherein the first device and the service providing device are configured to connect using in-band communication based on the communication information.

A method for device control, the method comprising:

• connecting a first device with a second device using out-of-band communication;
• transmitting, from the second device, connection information related to a service providing device;
• receiving, at the first device, the connection information;
• and
• connecting the first device with the service providing device using in-band communication based on the connection information.
