Abstract

The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented systems and methods for establishing a wireless display connection. A user device may detect, by an RFID tag, a signal from a wireless display device. As a result, the user device may transmit, by the RFID tag to the wireless display device, radio communication information. To this end, the user device and the wireless display device may establish a radio connection. Using the radio connection, the user device may receive wireless display connection information from the wireless display device. The user device may establish, using wireless display connection information, a streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device.

Claims (80)

1. A user device, comprising:

a radio transceiver;

a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory storing instructions, that when executed by the at least one processor, causes that at least one processor to:

detect, by the RFID tag, a signal from a wireless display device;

initiate, in response to the signal, a transition of the user device from a first power state to a second power state;

transmit, by the RFID tag to the wireless display device, radio communication information;

establish, by the radio transceiver based at least in part on the radio communication information, a radio connection with the wireless display device;

receive, by the radio transceiver from the wireless display device, wireless display connection information associated with the wireless display device; and

establish, based at least in part on the wireless connection information, a streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device.

2. The user device of claim 1 , further comprising a second radio transceiver to establish the streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device.

3. The user device of claim 1 , further comprising instructions that cause the at least one processor to:

transmit, using the streaming wireless display connection, display data to the wireless display device.

4. The user device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions to receive the wireless display connection information further comprises instructions to:

receive, from a user, an indication to establish the streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device;

transmit, by the radio transceiver to the wireless display device, a request for the wireless display connection information; and

receive the wireless display connection information in response to the request.

5. The user device of claim 4 , wherein the instructions to receive the indication from the user, further comprise instructions to:

receive a combination of one or more keystrokes from the user to indicate an intention to establish the streaming wireless display connection.

6. The user device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions to detect the signal further comprise instructions to:

detect a magnetic field associated with the wireless display device, wherein the RFID tag is energized by the magnetic field.

7. The user device of claim 1 , wherein the radio communication information comprises at least one of a network address identifier or a pairing key.

8. The user device of claim 1 , wherein the wireless display connection information comprises at least one of a wireless display identifier or a personal identification number.

9. The user device of claim 1 , wherein the radio transceiver is a Bluetooth Low-Energy transceiver.

10. The user device of claim 1 , wherein the first power state is a sleep state, and the second power state is a full power state.

11. A method, comprising:

detecting, by a computer, a signal from a wireless display device, the computer comprising one or more processors, a radio transceiver, and a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag;

switching, by the computer in response to the signal, from a first power state to a second power state;

transmitting, by the RFID tag to the wireless display device, radio communication information;

establishing, by the radio transceiver based at least in part on the radio communication information, a radio connection with the wireless display device;

receiving, by the radio transceiver from the wireless display device, wireless display connection information associated with the wireless display device; and

establishing, based at least in part on the wireless display connection information, a streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the computer further comprises a second radio transceiver to establish the streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device.

13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising transmitting, by the computer using the streaming wireless display connection, display data to the wireless display device.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein receiving the wireless display connection information further comprises:

receiving, from a user, an indication to establish the streaming wireless display connection with the wireless display device;

transmitting, by the radio transceiver to the wireless display device, a request for the wireless display connection information; and

receiving the wireless display connection information in response to the request.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the radio communication information comprises at least one of a network address identifier or a pairing key.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the wireless display connection information comprises at least one of a wireless display identifier or a personal identification number.

17. A display device, comprising:

a radio transceiver;

a radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions, that when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to:

receive a user indication to switch the display device to a powered state;

emit, by the RFID reader in response to the user indication, one or more broadcast signals;

receive, by the RFID reader in response to the one or more broadcast signals, radio communication information associated with a user device;

establish, by the radio transceiver based at least in part on the radio communication information, a radio connection with the user device;

transmit, by the radio transceiver using the radio connection, wireless display connection information to the user device; and

establish, based at least in part on the wireless display connection information, a streaming wireless display connection with the user device.

18. The display device of claim 17 , wherein the at least one memory further comprises computer-executable instructions that cause the at least one processor to:

display one or more images associated with the display data.

19. The display device of claim 17 , wherein the at least one memory further comprises computer-executable instructions that cause the at least one processor to:

switch the RFID reader to an unpowered state upon establishing the streaming wireless display connection with the user device.

20. The display device of claim 17 , wherein the streaming wireless display connection is established during a power-on sequence of the display device.
