Abstract

See full text

A display system in which one or more display devices are arranged to be addressed by a data processing device (e.g. a laptop computer) coupled to the display devices over a general purposes data network, thereby providing an ultra-thin network-connected display. The image data transmitted the display devices directly represents an image to be displayed on the display devices. In one embodiment the system includes an adaptor which couples a conventional display device to the network, thereby delivering the display data directly to the display device over the network. In an alternative configuration, the system includes a network-enabled monitor, which incorporates ultra-thin client componentry. Both embodiments dispense with the limitations imposed by dedicated VGA cables. Display devices addressed by the data processing device can thus be placed at great distances from the data processing device, and from one another. Wireless networks are also contemplated.
