Claim:
1. A method comprising: generating an identification token at a first device; emitting a signal based on the identification token, wherein the signal is received at a second device with a sensor and analyzed at the second device, wherein the signal initiates a video conference associated with the first device and the second device; receiving, at the first device, at least the identification token and a unique identifier of the second device via a communication network to which both the first device and the second device are connected, communication via the communication network being separate from communication via the signal; adding a predefined signature as a heading of the signal in advance of the identification token, wherein the predefined signature identifies compatible video conference devices; generating a list of video conference devices having received the signal arranged based on signal level; and establishing the video conference through the communication network from the first device to the second device enabling control of the video conference, and data transfer to the second device from the first device.
