Patent ID: 11978335

Abstract:
A method includes receiving, by a first computing device (110) and from a second computing device (118), using a short-range wireless communication unit of the first computing device (110), data including state information of the second computing device (118) and identification information for the second computing device (118). The method also includes, responsive to a distance between the first computing device (110) and the second computing device (118) satisfying a threshold distance, determining a particular template graphical user interface from a plurality of template graphical user interfaces. The method also includes determining one or more operations the second computing device (118) is configured to perform. The method further includes outputting a graphical user interface (114) associated with the remote computing device (118). The method includes receiving a user input selecting a particular graphical element (130, 132, 134) of the graphical user interface (114) and transmitting, to the second computing device (118), an indication of an operation corresponding to the particular graphical element.
