System and method for real-time transfer and presentation multiple internet of things (iot) device information on an electronic device based on casting and slinging gesture command

Abstract

A novel intermediary set-top box called a 'cast-sling box' (CSB) uniquely incorporates multimedia and/or IoT data casting, slinging, transcoding, referring (i.e. referral mode), rendering, and recording capabilities for seamless interoperability of various electronic devices in a multiple device environment. The novel intermediary set-top box (i.e. 'CSB') is also configured to perform a holistic-level device analysis on a plurality of IoT devices in a home or office environment. Furthermore, a holistic computerized user interface that can simultaneously and synergistically control and manage a multiple number of IoT devices is devised with the CSB as an intermediary set-top box. Moreover, a set of intuitive user gesture commands can be utilized in a direct peer-to-peer communication or in conjunction with the CSB as the intermediary set-top box, which enables simplified and seamless interoperability and multimedia data, control, and playback transfers among a plurality of electronic devices in a multiple display device environment.
