Abstract:
A mobile computing device that lacks a network connection receives a low energy radio signal comprising a unique identifier assigned to the electronic device. The mobile computing device sends a query to a remote server computing device, the query comprising the unique identifier and information identifying a user of the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device receives a response from the remote server computing device, the response indicating that the user is authorized to access the electronic device. The mobile computing device notifies the user of a presence of the electronic device and establishes a wireless connection to the electronic device.
