Abstract
A system, method, and computer readable medium for switching (via a hub connection device) peripheral devices (such as a display, keyboard, mouse, audio) between a primary computing device (such as an embedded computer or a network connected server) and a secondary portable personal computing device (such as a laptop, or a smart-phone). The present invention relates generally to multi-user computing, docking stations, and embedded system on a chip computing and specifically to methods and systems for switching peripheral devices between multiple computers both for independent and/or multi-user operation. This invention enables a single set of peripherals to be used for both independent and docking station operation, increasing productivity for users of portable computing devices (through expanded peripheral access) and decreasing deployment costs for organizations (by supporting multiple use-cases via just a single set of peripherals).
