Problems solved by technology

However, browser applications are typically subject to security restrictions.
Unfortunately, because of a security mechanism of a web browser, it may be difficult for a mobile device to establish a low latency network connection with a remote apparatus.

Embodiment Construction

[0018]The present invention may provide a system and method for connecting devices over a network. More particularly, the present invention may be used to connect and facilitate communication between a browser application running within a web browser and an application executing on an endpoint device.

[0019]Web browsers often employ security schemes, sometimes referred to as sandbox security, to ensure that browser applications cannot cause harm to a local machine. These security schemes may restrict a browser application from using local machine resources, such as the hard drive of the computer, I / O, or networking capabilities.

[0020]Typically, devices on a network can discover other devices on the network by broadcasting their presence on the network, and monitoring broadcasts from other devices. However, if a browser application, for example a FLASH application, is running within a web browser on a machine connected to a network, the security mechanisms of the web browser may preve...

Abstract

A system for controlling a remotely controlled apparatus includes executing, by a remotely controlled apparatus, a program for controlling actions of the remotely controlled apparatus. The system includes a first network connection between the remotely controlled apparatus and a network hub device configured to extend the range of a computer network may be established. The system also includes second network connection between the network hub device and an endpoint device executing an application for controlling the remotely controlled apparatus may be established. An endpoint device may send data over the first and second network connections for controlling the remotely controlled apparatus. An application executing within a web browser may process the data. A method for controlling a remotely controlled apparatus is also provided.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to and benefit of Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61 / 311,102, filed on Mar. 5, 2010, and to Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61 / 421,977, filed on Dec. 10, 2010. Both applications 61 / 311,102 and 61 / 421,977 are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]This invention relates generally to the field of communication over a network, and more particularly, to communication between an application and a remote apparatus.BACKGROUND[0003]With the rise of mobile computing, more and more devices are able to connect to computer networks. Network communication is no longer limited to PCs and laptops. Mobile phones and smart phones can typically connect not only to mobile telephone networks, but also Wi-fi networks, Bluetooth® networks, USB networks, etc. Other devices, which historically were not able to connect to computer networks, are entering the market already configured...
