Abstract
In one implementation, a system providing remote access set-up for electronic devices includes a mobile device and a profile server communicatively coupled to the mobile device via a network. The profile server includes a hardware processor, and a server memory storing a profile management software code and a profile information associated with a user of the mobile device. The hardware processor executes the profile management software code to receive, via the network, a platform ID of a configurable hardware platform communicatively coupled to the mobile device, and to determine, based on the platform ID, platform assets including a default configuration associated with the configurable hardware platform. The hardware processor further executes the profile management software code to determine, based on the profile information and the default configuration, a user specific configuration for the configurable hardware platform, and to transmit the user specific configuration to configure the configurable hardware platform.
Background
BACKGROUND
In an increasingly globalized economy, improvements in device compatibility and user accessibility across hardware platforms have become significant priorities in electronic design. Nevertheless, at present, most consumer electronic devices require that a user be in close physical proximity to a device in order to access the individual device configuration set-up options. Moreover, in some instances, users may be unfamiliar with a particular electronic device and may encounter difficulty in accessing its configuration options. Further adding to the burdens and inconvenience associated with electronic device configuration is that a user preferred configuration set-up applied to one device is typically not transferable to other devices.SUMMARY
There are provided systems and methods for standardized remote access set-up for electronic devices, substantially as shown in and/or described in connection with at least one of the figures, and as set forth more completely in the claims.
Claims
1. A system comprising: a mobile device; a profile server communicatively coupled to the mobile device via a network, the profile server having a hardware processor, and a server memory storing a profile management software code and a profile information associated with a user of the mobile device; to wherein the hardware processor is configured to execute the profile management software code to: receive, via the network, a platform ID of a configurable hardware platform communicatively coupled to the mobile device; determine, based on the platform ID, a plurality of platform assets associated with the configurable hardware platform, the plurality of platform assets including a default configuration of the configurable hardware platform; determine, based on the profile information and the default configuration, a user specific configuration for the configurable hardware platform; and transmit the user specific configuration to configure the configurable hardware platform.
4. The system of claim I, further comprising a second mobile device associated with a second user having a second profile information, wherein the hardware processor is further configured to execute the profile management software code to prioritize the user by implementing the profile information over the second profile information of the second user.
10. A method for use by a system including a mobile device and a profile server communicatively coupled to the mobile device via a network, the profile server having a hardware processor, and a server memory storing a profile management software code and a profile information associated with a user of the mobile device, the method comprising: receiving, via the network, a platform ID of a configurable hardware platform communicatively coupled to the mobile device; determining, based on the platform ID, a plurality of platform assets associated with the configurable hardware platform, the plurality of platform assets including a default configuration of the configurable hardware platform; determining, based on the first profile information and the default configuration, a user specific configuration for the configurable hardware platform; and transmitting the user specific configuration to configure the configurable hardware platform.
19. A system comprising: a mobile device having a hardware processor and a memory; the memory storing a profile management software code and a profile information associated with a user of the mobile device; wherein the hardware processor is configured to execute the profile management software code to: receive a platform ID of a configurable hardware platform communicatively coupled to the mobile device from the configurable hardware platform; determine, based on the platform ID, a plurality of platform assets associated with the configurable hardware platform, the plurality of platform assets including a default configuration of the configurable hardware platform; determine, based on the profile information and the default configuration, a user specific configuration for the configurable hardware platform; and transmit the user specific configuration to configure the configurable hardware platform.
