Abstract
A computing device including a wireless communication device, an electrostatic interface, and a processor. The processor may be configured to, via the electrostatic interface, detect a peripheral device proximate the surface. In response to detecting the peripheral device, the processor may be further configured to establish wireless pairing with the peripheral device at least in part by performing an identifier exchange via the electrostatic interface. Subsequently to performing the identifier exchange, establishing wireless pairing may further include generating a temporary key and transmitting the temporary key to the peripheral device via the electrostatic interface. Subsequently to transmitting the temporary key, establishing wireless pairing may further include receiving a first wireless pairing signal from the peripheral device via the wireless communication device. Subsequently to receiving the first wireless pairing signal, establishing wireless pairing may further include transmitting a second wireless pairing signal to the peripheral device via the wireless communication device.
