Abstract

A method for identifying a second device by a first device for establishing a communication between the first device and the second device is described here. The method includes receiving, by a processor of a first device, a voice command from a worker in a workplace. In an example, the method comprises pausing, by the processor, a workflow operation executing on the first device. The method further comprises performing, by the processor, a voice recognition to analyze the voice command of the worker. The method includes activating, by the processor, a communication module of the first device based on the voice recognition, to identify a second device in proximity to the first device. The method includes terminating, by the processor, a connection between the first device and the wearable electronic device. Thus, terminating, by the processor, a second connection of the first device with the second device.
