Techniques for context-based application invocation for short-range wireless communication interactions

摘要

A computer-implemented technique for context-based application invocation for short-range wireless communication interactions can include exchanging sets of information between first and second computing devices via a short-range wireless communication medium. The set of information for a specific computing device can include at least one of (i) device type information for the specific computing device and (ii) user information for the specific computing device. The techniques can include performing, at one of the computing devices, at least one of a plurality of actions based on the set of information received from the other computing device. The plurality of actions can generally include (a) automatically configuring another wireless communication medium and (b) outputting a menu configured to receive a user selection from a set of operations associated with at least one of the short-range wireless communication medium and the other wireless communication medium.
