[0026] overview

[0027] Wearable display systems such as head mounted displays (HMDs) can be configured to work with companion devices such as handheld, user input devices (eg, totems). In order for the HMD and companion device to work together (eg, exchange information or data wirelessly), the companion device and HMD may first need to be paired with each other. The present disclosure provides systems and methods for pairing such devices.

[0028] The HMD may include an outward-facing image capture device, such as a camera, that may image the environment of the user of the HMD. The image capture device may be used to capture and obtain information or data (e.g., keys or secrets) displayed on a companion device (e.g., a totem with a display or light source) in order to establish shared information or data (e.g., , shared key, shared secret, or signing key). The shared data is in turn used by the HMD or companion device to encrypt / decrypt data for / from secure data transfe...

Abstract

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for device authentication or pairing. In an aspect, a wearable display system comprises a display, an image capture device configured to capture images of a companion device, a computer-readable storage medium configured to store the images of the companion device, and a processor in communication with the image capture device and the storage medium. The processor can be programmed with executable instructions to receive a first image of a first optical pattern displayed by the companion device captured by the image capture device, wherein the first optical pattern is generated by the companion device based on first shared data, extract first data from the first optical pattern in the received first image, authenticate the companion device based onthe first data extracted from the first optical pattern, and notify a user of the wearable display system that the companion device is authenticated.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of priority to US Patent Application 62 / 509,427, entitled "Pairing with a Companion Device," filed May 22, 2017, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for secure data transfer, and more particularly to systems and methods for device pairing and authentication for secure data transfer. Background technique [0004] In order to securely transfer data between a user device (eg, a head-mounted display) and a companion device (eg, another user device, such as a mobile device or a totem), the user device and the companion device need to be paired with each other. The mutual pairing process may include the user device authenticating that the companion device is authorized to communicate with the user device. After authentication, the user device and companion device can es...
