A collaboration system includes a first group display and a first group display computer, the first group display computer to receive mobile device data streams from at least two mobile devices over a wireless access protocol and to output a first group display data stream over a network, a second group display and a second group display computer, the second group display computer to receive mobile device data streams from at least two mobile devices, different from the at least two mobile devices streaming to the first group display computer, over the wireless access protocol and to output a second group display data stream over the network, a common display computer to receive the first and second group display data streams from the network, and a common display to display data streamed from the first and second group display computers in first and second group display windows.

Multi-group collaboration system and associated methods

A first or second computer viewing a virtual canvas may be a host computer for a live source object requiring authorization between a host and a non-host computer by creating a live source window for the live source object requiring authorization (ARLSW) within the virtual canvas on the host computer, sending metadata information for the ARLSW to the non-host computer so that the ARLSW is at the same location on the virtual canvas for the first and second computers, and streaming the live source object requiring authorization to the ARLSW from the host computer to the non-host computer. When the host computer for the ARLSW leaves the virtual canvas and no other non-host computer for ARLSW in the canvas is known to have authorization to view the ARLSW, a placeholder screen is displayed in the ARLSW on the virtual canvas.

Real time collaboration over multiple locations

A system includes a common display, a display computer to run collaboration software connected to the common display that drives the common display, the display computer being on a first network, a first mobile device to run a sharing application and a streaming application, the first mobile device being on a second network, separate from the first network, the streaming application to convert a display of the mobile device into stream data, a control channel between the mobile device and the display computer, and a stream channel between the display computer and the mobile device. The mobile device sends stream data directly to the display computer, wherein the display computer is to display the stream data on the common display. The stream channel may be directly between the mobile device and the display computer or may be over a relay server.

Cross network sharing system

A system includes a screen and a computer that detects an object near the screen and allows interaction between the object and the computer.

Display capable of interacting with an object

A method of collaborating between a first computer associated with a first display at a first location and a second computer associated with a second display at a second location may include establishing a connection between the first and second computers, opening a virtual canvas on the first computer, the virtual canvas to be displayed on the first and second displays simultaneously, and sending an object between the first and second computers by sending data associated with the object on the virtual canvas stored on the first computer to the second computer to be stored locally, thereby creating a shared canvas on which objects are at a single location. Video conferencing may include sending a first live video stream from the first display to the second display to be viewed in a first video conference window separate from the virtual canvas on the second display and vice versa.

Video conferencing during real time collaboration on a virtual canvas

A method of controlling contents displayed on a display includes processing inputs from different users across multiple application windows of one or more applications displayed on a single display of a user interface, resulting in a multi-user graphical user interface (GUI), the computing environment running an operating system (OS), the computing environment having a multiple input detection system to respond to user inputs from different users simultaneously, the multiple input detection system including a touch screen on the single display that detects touch inputs and a contactless gesture sensor that detects contactless gestures. When a user input is detected by the touch detector, the GUI displays a first input interface to be used with touch. When a user input is detected by the contactless gesture sensor, the GUI displays a second input interface to be used with gestures, the second input interface being different from the first input interface.

Simultaneous gesture and touch control on a display

Collaboration between a first computer associated with a first display at a first location and a second computer associated with a second display at a second location, includes establishing a connection between the first and second computers, starting a virtual canvas on the first computer, sending the virtual canvas from the first computer to the second computer, sending a file-based object between a host computer and a non-host computer so that the file-based object is located on the same location on the canvas for the first and second computers, streaming a live source object between a host computer running the live source object and a non-host computer by creating a live source window for the live source object within the virtual canvas on the host computer, sending the metadata information for the live source window to the non-host computer and streaming the live source object to the live source window.

A method of collaborating between a first display computer associated with a first display at a first location and a second display computer associated with a second display at a second location includes establishing a connection between the first and second display computers, opening a virtual canvas to be shared by the first and second display computers, the virtual canvas to be displayed on the first and second displays simultaneously, and sending an object between the first and second display computers by sending data associated with the object on the virtual canvas stored on the first display computer from the first display computer to the second display computer to be stored locally, thereby creating a shared canvas, wherein objects are at a single location on the shared canvas Live objects are treated differently than non-live objects.

In a computing environment, a method for processing inputs from different users across multiple application windows resulting in a multi-user graphical user interface (GUI), the computing environment running an operating system (OS) designed to run with a single user GUI, the method including determining, in a primary application, separate from the OS, that a first user input corresponds to a first window and a second user input corresponds to a second window, the primary application sending the first and second user inputs to first and second secondary applications that run in parallel with the primary application, the first and second secondary applications being designed to run with the OS.

Simultaneous input system for web browsers and other applications

A method of collaborating between a first display computer associated with a first display at a first location and a second display computer associated with a second display at a second location includes establishing a connection between the first and second display computers, opening a virtual canvas to be shared by the first and second display computers, the virtual canvas to be displayed on the first and second displays simultaneously, and sending an object between the first and second display computers by sending data associated with the object on the virtual canvas stored on the first display computer from the first display computer to the second display computer to be stored locally, thereby creating a shared canvas, wherein objects are at a single location on the shared canvas, and objects on the shared canvas can be manipulated from both the first and second display computers simultaneously.
