Claim:
1. A system comprising: a processor and a memory comprising instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the system to: receive gesture data resulting from a physical user gesture associated with a first device and a second device; extract from the gesture data a first curved-line between contact points of the physical user gesture on a first touchscreen of the first device and an exit point of the physical user gesture on the first touchscreen; extract from the gesture data a second curved-line between contact points of the physical user gesture on a second touchscreen of the second device and an entry point of the physical user gesture on the second touchscreen; determine that the first and second curved-lines correspond to curved-line portions of a same circle based on respective curvatures of the first and second curved-lines and relative positions of the exit point on the first touchscreen and the entry point on the second touchscreen; and initiate a communicative coupling between the first device and the second device based on the determination.
