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.
Claims20
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.
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.
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.
