A method, comprising:
- initiating, at a camera device, a connection utility configured to enable the camera device to communicatively couple to a second electronic device via a wireless network;
- capturing an image via the camera device;
- obtaining information to facilitate connection to the second electronic device based at least in part on the captured image;
- and
- establishing a wireless connection to the second electronic device via the wireless network utilizing the obtained information.
A camera device comprising:
- a camera;
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- initiating a connection utility configured to enable the camera device to communicatively couple to a second electronic device via a wireless network;
- capturing an image;
- obtaining information to facilitate connection to the second electronic device based at least in part on the captured image;
- and
- establishing a wireless connection to the second electronic device via the wireless network utilizing the obtained information.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by a camera device, cause the camera device to:
- initiate a connection utility configured to enable the camera device to communicatively couple to a second electronic device via a wireless network;
- capture an image;
- obtain information to facilitate connection to the second electronic device based at least in part on the captured image;
- and
- establish a wireless connection to the second electronic device via the wireless network utilizing the obtained information.
