Remote Management System for Automatic Device Pairing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing remote device management systems face delays due to the need for intermediaries and surrogates to manage information and command flow, which can hinder seamless and efficient remote access and collaboration across different devices and locations.
Innovation Solution
A turn-key remote management system that enables automatic connection and interaction of remote devices without manual router or port changes, supporting encrypted connections, audio controls, and file transfers, with multiple operating modes for collaboration, including meeting, controller, and local share modes, utilizing cloud management technology for real-time data processing and adaptive bit rate outputs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a host intermediary is used to manage remote device connections, then protocol conversion and encryption are enabled, but delays occur in information and command flow
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the intermediary host from the communication path, enabling devices to connect directly peer-to-peer. This eliminates the host's protocol conversion and messaging functions, removing the source of delays while maintaining connection reliability through direct encrypted channels between devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the traditional host intermediary with a different approach: devices establish direct connections using embedded software that handles encryption and protocol conversion locally. This eliminates the need for a central mediating host while preserving the necessary security and compatibility functions.
2Adaptability or versatility
If manual router or port changes are required for device connection, then network configuration flexibility is achieved, but ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by embedding software directly in devices that automatically performs router and port configuration. The devices autonomously establish connections without requiring manual intervention, maintaining network flexibility while dramatically improving ease of operation. The embedded software handles all configuration tasks automatically.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-installing embedding software in devices before connection is needed. This software is prepared in advance to automatically handle connection establishment, eliminating the need for manual configuration when connection is required. The system is pre-configured to act autonomously when needed.
3Reliability
If dedicated servers are used for host functionality, then connection management is reliable, but device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by making the embedding software multi-functional, combining previously separate functions (encryption, protocol conversion, connection management) into a single integrated solution that resides in each device. This eliminates the need for dedicated servers while maintaining reliable connection management through distributed functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the centralized host functionality and distributes it across individual devices through embedded software. Each device independently performs connection management tasks that were previously centralized, reducing system architecture complexity while maintaining reliability through distributed processing.
Data Source
AI summary
A system enables collaboration through electronic devices executes software or an operating system feature that allows a first device's computing environment to run remotely on a second devices computing software by scanning predetermined wireless channels to detect remote clients via a communication controller. The system transmits device profiles that include protocol versions that multiple clients support. The system generates a link layer that joins a first device to a second device and generates authenticating keys that establish a communication channel. The system enables operating modes of the first and second devices that establish the content and control of those devices.
