Notification framework for smart objects

Abstract:

Embodiments of a notification framework for smart objects (e.g., smart televisions) to deliver notifications to user devices are described. In one embodiment, a method includes a smart device sending an event-registration request to a server, the event-registration request including event information associated with an event associated with the smart device. The smart device may receive a code generated by the server in response to the event-registration request, the code being associated with the event information. The smart device may send the code to a user device through short-range wireless communication. By using the code, the user device may obtain from the server the event information associated with the event of the smart device.
