VISIBLE LIGHT COMMUNICATION FOR VERIFYING A SECURE WIRELESS CONNECTION

Abstract:

Systems and methods for forming a verified secure wireless connection are disclosed. One system includes a first device with a first transceiver and a second device with a second transceiver. The second device does not include a display or any other means for providing high resolution visible light information. The system also includes a visible light signal source on the second device. The first and second devices store computer-readable instructions to initialize a secure wireless connection using the first transceiver and the second transceiver. The second device also stores computer-readable instructions to generate a visible light signal using the visible light source. The first device stores computer-readable instructions to verify the secure wireless connection using the visible light signal.
