Abstract

A method for electronic accessory pairing includes capturing an image of an external environment via a camera communicatively coupled to a host computing device. The image of the external environment is analyzed to detect presence of an imaged electronic accessory. After determining that the host computing device is not presently paired with the imaged electronic accessory, a pairing is established between the host computing device and the imaged electronic accessory.
