Abstract

A computing device detects a trigger or context associated with exchanging, using a body area network (BAN), body area network services with another device. The BAN services can include a discovery service to allow the computing device to connect to a network. Responsive to detecting the trigger or context, one or more body area networks are discovered and the other device is discovered. If the computing device and the other device are new to each other, the computing device is authenticated to the body area network one or more body area network services can be exchanged. If the devices are not new to each other, body area network services can be exchanged using the other device.
