[0279] In the second embodiment, refer to Figure 2 to 5 , The basic node is a separate physical processing device called the basic unit (B), including permanent storage, memory, processing engine, wireless access point (4), plug-and-play interfaces such as USB port (11), graphics Display output adapter (5) (such as VGA / DP / DVI / HDMI) and optional audio output adapter (27). An input device with a detent such as a button 13 and a visual indicator 14 is optional.

[0280] The connection unit is a physical device in the form of an external peripheral device (shown as a "dongle" D in the drawings), including permanent storage, memory, and processing engine (for example, storage of portable applications (7) and configuration parameters (12) , CPU, FPGA), wireless transmitters such as WiFi (3) or other wireless transmitters such as LiFi, plug-and-play interfaces such as USB interface (2), buttons as input devices (9), visual indicators (10) LED ring. The portable application is stored ...

[0301] The third embodiment: a portable application stored on a standard solid-state memory such as a USB stick.

[0302] In this third embodiment, the portable application is stored in a conventional USB memory stick ( Figure 7 ) And other solid-state memory.

[0303] In the case of a solid state memory such as a conventional USB memory stick, there are no various input devices, visual indicators, or transmitters for the connection unit described above. This means that the system needs:

[0304] -Use the transmitter / receiver from the client processing device.

[0305] -Use keys or buttons on the client processing device as input devices, such as physical keys on the keyboard, special mouse presses, button areas on the touch screen, and buttons displayed on the screen that are clicked with a mouse pointer.

[0306] -Present visual indicators on the display of the client processing device.

[0307] The client processing device then looks like Figure 8 .

[0308] This embodiment provides...

no. 4 example

[0334] Fourth embodiment: Only the software client is installed on the client processing device.

[0335] This embodiment is similar to the third embodiment, the only difference is that the software is copied to the client operating device ( Picture 9 ). In this case, no plug-and-play ports such as USB ports are required on the client operating device.

[0336] This embodiment will generally be used for tablet PCs and mobile devices. under these circumstances

[0337] -There is often no usable USB port

[0338] -App distribution is easy and widely accepted through app stores

Abstract

An electronic meeting tool and method for communicating arbitrary media content from users at a meeting is described. These can include a node configuration means adapted to operate a display node of a communications network, the display node being coupled to a first display. The node configuration means is adapted to receive user selected arbitrary media content and to control display of the user selected arbitrary media content on the first display. At least one peripheral device adapted to communicate the user selected arbitrary media content via the communications network is provided, wherein the peripheral device is a connection unit comprising: (e) a connector adapted to couple to a port of a processing device having a second display, a memory and an operating system; and (f) a transmitter for communicating with the communications network, A program is provided that is adapted to be loaded onto the processing device and to run on the operating system of the processing device, said program being adapted to obtain user selected arbitrary media content, said program leaving a zero footprint on termination. An input device is provided to allow the user to carry out a user action that triggers transfer of said user selected arbitrary media content to said transmitter through said port.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to electronic tools used in meetings, including methods or devices for providing networks with connections to communication networks or methods for operating networks, methods or devices for displaying media content, and methods or devices for performing any of these methods. Kind of software. technical background [0002] Tools for collaboration [0003] Allowing self-organizing people to communicate with each other is one of the basic aspects of collaboration, problem solving, negotiation, teaching, and education. In order to facilitate communication, a large number of electronic communication tools such as electronic meeting tools already exist, for example, synchronous and asynchronous meetings, online chats, instant messaging, audio conferences, video conferences, data conferences, application sharing, remote desktop sharing, electronic conferences Systems, collaborative management (coordination) tools, project management systems, knowledg...
