Patent ID: 8599311

Claim:
A system for display of video signals, said system comprising: a removable interactive display adapted to display one or more received video signals and receive, via the display, user inputs; a matched computing platform adapted to convert video data into video signals and transmit the converted video signals to said interactive display; a mount adapted to physically dock said interactive display upon said matched computing platform, thereby matching said matched computing platform to said removable interactive display, said mount facilitating a first video signal path adapted to transfer, over a wired line, video signals from said matched computing platform to said display; a second video signal path adapted to transfer wireless video signals from said matched computing platform to said interactive display; and control logic within said matched computing platform adapted to: (1) regulate operation of one or more circuits of said display unit, (2) to regulate routing of video signals over said first and second video signal paths to said display, (3) switch streaming of video signals from said first video signal path to said second signal path upon disconnection of said display from said mount, and (4) switch streaming of video signals from said second video signal path to said first signal path upon connection of said display to said mount; and a video stream switching controller, within said interactive display, adapted to: (1) switch reception and display of streaming video signals from said first video signal path to said second signal path upon disconnection of said display from said mount, and (2) switch reception and display of streaming video signals from said second video signal path to said first signal path upon connection of said display to said mount.
