Problems solved by technology

[0004] Another problem is that for mobile devices with larger computer platforms, the device usually only has a very small OS and cannot dedicate a lot of resources to peripheral device communication
As a result, even if the resident OS handles incoming communications from peripherals to establish the correct communications, the mobile OS will not effectively remain engaged in managing ongoing communications

Embodiment Construction

[0012] Referring to the drawings, in which like numerals represent like elements throughout, figure 1 A system 10 is shown in which a peripheral device (ie, camera 14 ) is in wired communication with a wireless device (shown here as a mobile phone 12 ) via serial line 16 . Peripheral device 14 may transmit a specific command to call wireless device 12 on the connection—either a wired connection such as a serial connection or USB, such as serial ports 20 and 22, or a wireless connection such as IRDA or RF. OS. Once the call command is received, the OS of the wireless device 12 will establish the connection to communicate with the peripheral device 14 using a predefined protocol that will be explained further herein. The OS can then link an appropriate program with the peripheral device and partially or completely release control of communications with the program.

[0013] as in figure 1 As shown in , a camera 14 plugged into a mobile phone 12 can interact with the mobile ph...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a system, method and computer program for establishing communication between a peripheral device and a program resident on a wireless computer device. The device has a computer platform with a wireless communication port and one or more resident programs, and the computer platform includes an operating system that manages the resources of the wireless device and the interaction of the wireless device with other computing devices. When a peripheral device selectively communicates with the computer platform of the wireless device through a wired or wireless communication, the operating system of the wireless device recognizes at least the type of peripheral device and associates the peripheral device with one or more of the link to the resident computer program described above.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to computer devices with wireless communication capabilities. More specifically, the present invention relates to a system and method for establishing and controlling data communication between a peripheral device and a resident computer program of a wireless computer device. Background technique [0002] It is known to link peripheral devices, such as printers, scanners, cameras, etc., to a personal computer (PC) to make the peripheral devices available to the computer. Peripheral devices are usually connected to the computer platform of the PC by means of parallel or serial data communication. In particular, serial input / output (I / O) (SIO) in a PC involves communicating with external devices by connecting them to the PC's serial line connection point. This mechanism enables an external device to communicate with PC software using a serial data stream. The PC's operating system, such as Windows or Linux, can ...
