Patent number: 10432988Abstract: Virtual Reality (VR) systems, apparatuses and methods of processing data are provided which include predicting, at a server, a user viewpoint of a next frame of video data based on received user feedback information sensed at a client, rendering a portion of the next frame using the prediction, encoding the portion, formatting the encoded portion into packets and transmitting the video data. At a client, the encoded and packetized A/V data is received and depacketized. The portion of video data and corresponding audio data is decoded and controlled to be displayed and aurally provided in synchronization. Latency may be minimized by utilizing handshaking between hardware components and/or software components such as a 3D server engine, one or more client processors, one or more client processors, a video encoder, a server NIC, a video decoder, a client NIC; and a 3D client engine.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: October 1, 2019Assignees: ATI TECHNOLOGIES ULC, ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC.Inventors: Lei Zhang, Gabor Sines, Khaled Mammou, David Glen, Layla A.

Patent number: 8358656Abstract: DisplayPort micropackets of uncompressed visual information are adapted to conventional network infrastructure with a switch having DisplayPort ports, network ports and a packet converter. The packet converter encapsulates DisplayPort packets for communication through network ports and extracts DisplayPort packets from network packets for communication through DisplayPort ports. An address resolution table associates the switch ports with each other and with a packet converter operation by using a control field that defines the packet converter operation for information received at each port, such as encapsulation, extraction or native switching.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2011Date of Patent: January 22, 2013Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Robert Winter, Bruce Montag, Liam B.

Patent number: 8325195Abstract: Wireless communication of display information between an information handling system and display is supported by a direct connection between a graphics system of the information handling system and a transceiver of the information handling system. For example, the graphics system outputs pixel level display information through a cable directly to the transceiver. A converter on the transceiver converts the display information to network information, such as from a DisplayPort format to a PCI Express format, so the transceiver can send the display information through a wireless network, such as a personal area network, to the display. A display module located at the transceiver coordinates initiation of communication of display information from the graphics system to the display.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2011Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventor: Bruce Montag

Patent number: 7929525Abstract: DisplayPort micropackets of uncompressed visual information are adapted for communication across a network by stuffing packets with sink device identification information. For example, a packet stuffer adds selected portions of sink device EDID information to DisplayPort packets, such as EDID bytes 8 through 15, to a predetermined portion of the DisplayPort packets, such as between symbols FS and FE. Adding sink device identification information to each DisplayPort packet supports routing or switching of the packets to the identified sink device.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2007Date of Patent: April 19, 2011Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Robert Winter, Bruce Montag, Liam B.

Patent number: 7830650Abstract: A display system includes a display chassis defining a display chassis housing. A display panel is located in the display chassis housing. A power supply module chassis defines a power supply module housing and is coupled to the display chassis outside of the display chassis housing. A power supply module is located in the power supply module housing and coupled to the display panel. Such display system architecture allows the display chassis to be much thinner than conventional externally connectable display chassis.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2008Date of Patent: November 9, 2010Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Joe E. Goodart, Pratik Mehta, Bruce Montag
