US 2014/0195595 A1 · INPUT REDIRECTION WITH A CLOUD CLIENT DEVICE

Abstract

In one embodiment, a cloud client device identifies one or more devices within a pre-determined range of the cloud client device operable to communicate with the cloud client device. The cloud client device pairs with one or more of the devices. The cloud client device receives first input from a client device coupled to the cloud client device. The cloud client device translates the first input from a first format to a second format and sends the translated first input to one of the one or more devices. The cloud client device receives second input from one of the one or more devices, translates the second input from a third format to a fourth format, and provides the translated second input to the client device.
