Claim One:
1. A method comprising: acquiring, by a wireless dockee (WD), an image; initiating a wireless connection between the wireless dockee (WD) and a wireless docking center (WDC) having one or more peripherals configured as peripheral functions (PFs), wherein initiating the wireless connection comprises: determining, by the WD, the one or more peripherals associated with the WDC based on the WDC and the WD exchanging communications and the WDC executing one or more peripheral service modules on one or more processors of the WDC; and selecting at least one peripheral of the one or more peripherals subsequent to the determination; setting up one or more peripheral services, wherein each peripheral service establishes a connection for communication with at least one PF of the one or more PFs associated with the WDC, wherein each peripheral service corresponds to one or more of the one or more PFs and is used to establish a connection for communication with the one or more of the one or more PFs with which each respective peripheral service corresponds; determining attributes associated with the acquired image, wherein the attributes include feature descriptors; receiving, at the WD and from the WDC, information representative of matching items stored on at least one peripheral of the at least one selected peripheral based on the connection established by the one or more peripheral services, wherein the matching items include images with attributes similar to the attributes associated with the acquired image, wherein the information representative of the matching items comprises one of indicia representing one or more of documents detected by the WDC via a search of the at least one peripheral or information representative of a searchable database selected by the WDC; selecting, at the WD and as a function of the information representative of the matching items, one or more of the matching items; and receiving, from the one or more of the peripherals, the selected matching items.
