BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present invention relates to an interconnecting method, and particularly relates to a paring and interconnecting method between electronic devices.

2. Description of Related Art

Nowadays, with rapid progress of technology, transmission of data between electronic devices is often achieved in a wireless manner. However, prior to the data transmission being carried out, connections between such electronic devices have to be established in advance.

For example, considering E-teaching or E-learning (perform teaching or learning in a digital manner), the teacher may show or display his/her contents by means of wireless audio/video devices in a classroom, correspondingly, the students may share or present their reports for homework or term project through the wireless audio/video devices. In a general arrangement, one wireless audio/video receiving device is arranged for the use of a single teacher, whereas a plurality of wireless audio/video transmitting devices are respectively arranged for the use of a plurality of students. Nevertheless, for most existing conventional wireless audio/video receiving or transmitting devices, establishment for connections between receiving devices and transmitting devices are usually difficult to manage, which is described as follows.

In an environment for teaching or instruction, a plurality of classrooms may be disposed. Furthermore, one wireless audio/video receiving device (hereinafter referred to as “receiving device”) and a plurality of wireless audio/video transmitting devices (hereinafter referred to as “transmitting device”) may be designated to each classroom.

In one case, as the receiving device executes a connection software to search available transmitting devices, a display screen of the receiving device may show a device name of these available transmitting devices. In general, a default device name may refer to a list or a string of characters composed of numerals or letters, which may be shown on a tag (or label) of identity code of the device. Therefore, in order to figure out the device name of such device, the user has to check the tag (or label) of identity code on the device in a one-by-one manner, and then the user has to select corresponding transmitting device on the display screen to execute subsequent configurations.

In another case, as the receiving device executes the connection software to connect available transmitting devices through a routing device, likewise, a display screen of the receiving device may merely show a device name of these available transmitting devices but show nothing more than such device name. Therefore, the user has to query or make a look-up to device names of the available transmitting devices and then to select one transmitting device based on the device names, and finally to establish a connection.

In the above case, tags of identity code of devices usually suffer from damage or being lost, which may hinder the operation of the user. Accordingly, we now face an urgent issue about how to make pairing and interconnecting between audio/video devices in an automatic, convenient and intelligent manner, so that drawbacks and defects appearing in the above two cases may be addressed.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

To address the above issues, a purpose of the present invention refers to providing a method for pairing and interconnecting electronic devices, wherein such pairing and interconnecting can be performed in an intelligent manner.

To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides a method for pairing and interconnecting electronic devices, which cooperates with at least two electronic devices that are grouped as a transmitting end and a receiving end respectively, and the transmitting end operates in a first mode. The method for pairing and interconnecting electronic devices comprises at least Step1to Step4. Step1refers to searching any available transmitting end in a wireless manner by the receiving end, and displaying a connection name of the transmitting end on the receiving end. Step2refers to prompting a dynamic operating instruction by the receiving end. Step3refers to executing operation by the transmitting end based on the dynamic operating instruction and thereby issuing an action instruction. Step4refers to receiving the action instruction by the receiving end, and establishing a connection with the transmitting end which issues the action instruction.

In one example, the dynamic operating instruction is randomly generated by the receiving end based on hardware configuration of the transmitting end.

In one example, if a plural amount of transmitting ends are in presence, the dynamic operating instruction is randomly generated by the receiving end based on an intersection of the hardware configuration of each of the plurality of transmitting ends.

In one example, if a plural amount of receiving ends are in presence, the dynamic operating instructions prompted by each of the plurality of receiving ends are different from one another.

In one example, the first mode is an access-point mode, and the receiving end directly establishes a connection with the transmitting end in a wireless manner of Wi-Fi.

In one example, further comprising Step5to Step7which are executed after the receiving end has established the connection with the transmitting end. Step5refers to sending a configuration data to the transmitting end by the receiving end, and thereby executing configuration by the transmitting end. Step6refers to terminating (or shutting off or breaking down) the connection with the transmitting end by the receiving end, and further establishing a connection with a routing device. Step7refers to changing to operate in a second mode by the transmitting end, and establishing a connection with the routing device.

In one example, the second mode is a station mode.

In one example, the receiving end and the transmitting end respectively establishes a connection with a routing device, and the receiving end and the transmitting end establish a connection between each other based on the routing device.

In one example, further comprising the following step executed after the receiving end has established the connection with the transmitting end: sending an audio/video data to the receiving end by the transmitting end.

In one example, the receiving end establishes the connection with the transmitting end in a wireless manner of Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

In one example, the action instruction issued by the transmitting end changes the connection name of the transmitting end displayed by the receiving end.

Based on the above, method for pairing and interconnecting electronic devices of the present invention firstly utilizes a specific dynamic operating instruction randomly generated by an electronic device at the receiving end, and thereafter executes corresponding operating procedure by an electronic device at the transmitting end based on the dynamic operating instruction and hence can automatically recognize the transmitting end by the receiving end. In this manner, the receiving end and the transmitting end can pair and interconnect with each other, and such pairing and interconnecting procedure can thus be simplified.

The detailed technology and preferred embodiments implemented for the subject invention are described in the following paragraphs accompanying the appended drawings for people skilled in this field to well appreciate the features of the claimed invention.
