Patent ID: 10610788

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer programs for obtaining profile data of a user from a wearable device are provided. One example method includes connecting a peripheral device with a base computing device via a data connection. The peripheral device usable for interfacing with a computer game when executed by the base computing device. The method also includes detecting, by the peripheral device, a wearable device of a user that is using the peripheral device. The wearable device having an electronic circuit and a memory for storing information usable to identify a profile of the user. The method further includes reading or obtaining, by the peripheral device, the information from the memory of the wearable device, then sending the information to the base computing device. The information is used by the base computing device to identify the profile of the user. The profile of the user being used to obtain calibration data for the user, to avoid requiring the user to perform calibration each time the user interacts with the computer game.
