Patent number: 11966346Abstract: A system and method for connecting a processing device to a functional device connected to or in a base unit of a communications network, the base unit having a transmitter and the processing device having a memory, a display and an operating system. A first peripheral device is adapted to be coupled to the processing device via a generic communications protocol, the first peripheral device having a receiver and at least one fixed or configurable endpoint of the functional device exposed on the first peripheral device. The base unit and the first peripheral device is adapted to transmit and receive data respectively over the communications network from the functional device to the processing device via the at least one fixed or configurable endpoint using the generic communications protocol for communication between the processing device and the first peripheral device.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2018Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: BARCO N.V.Inventors: Gauthier Renard, Johan Peter Frans Degraef

Patent number: 11916977Abstract: A method, device and system for providing user-centric connections to a location comprising digital collaboration tools, as well as software for carrying out the method. The method includes a network device having a beacon system for proximity detection and a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). A confirmed BYOD proximity can be used to initiate the setup of a data channel between the network device and the BYOD, and further join the BYOD to a UC (Unified Communications systems and tools) session.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: BARCO N.V.Inventors: Michaël Toon Andre Arthur Vanderheeren, Gauthier Renard, Laurens Cyrille Vandenbroucke, Johan Peter Frans Degraef
