Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms for exchanging information between a mobile device and another device which is to serve as an accessory to the mobile device. In an embodiment, the accessory device and the mobile device are coupled to one another via an audio connector of the mobile device. The mobile device receives via the audio connector encoded signals which represent, in a first frequency range, information generated by a sensor of the accessory device. The first frequency range is within an audible frequency range and outside of a telephony frequency range of the mobile device. In another embodiment, the encoded signals are provided to telephony logic of the host device during a telecommunication exchange between the host device and a remote device. Due to its representation in the first frequency range, some sensor information is prevented from being represented as an audio signal in the telecommunication exchange.
