Embodiment Construction

[0013] figure 1 A system 8 is shown with an exemplary audio video (AV) switch 10 . The AV switch 10 includes N input terminals 12 1 ,...,12 I ,...,12 N (collectively referred to as input terminals 12 here) and M output terminals 14 1 ,...,14 J ,...,14 M (Here collectively referred to as output terminal 14), wherein, I, N, J and M are integers. Each of the inputs 12 is associated with one of composite video, s-video, RGB, component video, etc., and includes a corresponding connector (e.g., BNC, RCA, s-video, wireless, etc.) that An interface is provided for one or more appropriate source devices 16 . Each of the outputs 14 is also associated with one of composite video, s-video, RGB, component video, etc., and includes a corresponding connector (e.g., BNC, RCA, s-video, wireless, etc.) that connects The controller provides an interface to the appropriate output device 18.

[0014] shows three source devices 16 1 、16 2 and 16 3 however, in other examples, more (eg, u...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a telemedicine system (8) comprising an audio-video switch (10) which receives at least two different signals and conveys at least one of the at least two different signals to an output device (18) that presents it to a user. A control device (162) monitors a position of the audio-video switch (10) and automatically controls the position to select which of the at least two different signals is passed through the audio-video switch (10) to the output device (18) in response to a signal from a remote source (34). Signals received from the remote source (34) include medically related audio video message signals, which are input to the audio-video switch (10), and a control signal that causes the audio-video switch (10) to select between passing the medically related audio-video message signals and other received signals to the output device (18).

Description

technical field [0001] The following relates to electrical signaling switchgear. It is especially used in audio and video signal switching equipment. More particularly, it relates to a controllable audio-visual switch preferably connected via a Universal Serial Bus (USB). However, other types of connections are also conceivable. Background technique [0002] Traditional telemedicine involves the use of modern communication and information technology to provide clinical care to individuals at a distance (e.g., at home, nursing home, retirement community, etc.) care. Exemplary telemedicine interactions include a save-and-forward format of telemedicine, a live format of telemedicine, and / or other forms of telemedicine. A save-and-forward form of telemedicine involves taking programming, data, images, video, and / or audio, and sending that information to an individual (e.g., a patient or medical professional); this form does not require the communicating parties to be at the ...
