EasyGroups: binding mobile devices for collaborative interactions

Published:05 May 2012Publication History

ABSTRACT

We present a touch and proximity based method for binding a group of mobile devices into an ecosystem for collaborative interactions. We aim to provide a seamless user experience by integrating the binding method with the application start-up flow. Our method also determines the order of the devices, allowing implementation of spatial interactions.
