Abstract
A system and process for discovery between endpoint component devices and computing devices residing in the same delimited space, such as conference room, in cases where the devices are connected to a common local network, is presented. The present invention allows a device in the space to discover the presence and network address of another device in the space, which then allows the first device to negotiate with the discovered device to facilitate the transfer of data and other communications over the common network. However, this discovery is accomplished without the use of the common network, and is limited to discovering devices residing in the same delimited space also containing the discoverable devices.
