Abstract

The present disclosure provides system and techniques that allow a device to be coupled with an electromechanical gun. The electromechanical gun may be physically coupled with a cradle of the device, and the electromechanical gun may be communicatively coupled with an electrical interface of the device. The device may include a display mechanism that is capable of visually conveying information, a power source configured to supply power to the display mechanism, an electrical interface configured to be coupled with an electromechanical gun so as to allow power to be directed from the power source to the electromechanical gun, and a processor configured to process incoming messages received from the electromechanical gun and transmit outgoing messages to the electromechanical gun. The processor may perform a handshake procedure with the electromechanical gun, and the processor may process the incoming messages or transmit the outgoing messages based on the handshake procedure.
