Abstract:
Various embodiments relate to systems and methods for simultaneously switching input image streams to output devices, while providing optional image processing functions on the image streams. Certain embodiments may enable multiple users/viewers to collaboratively control such systems and methods. Additionally, some embodiments may enable control by a set of computer input devices (e.g., keyboard and mouse) to switch between multiple computer systems, possibly by following the movement of a computer input device cursor, between virtual displays, as the cursor is controlled by the set of computer input devices.

Claim (Index 26):
A method for collaboratively switching an image stream input to an image stream output, comprising:\n receiving a first command from a first user by way of a collaborative control interface accessible by two or more users simultaneously, wherein the first command relates to configuring a switching matrix in communication with a plurality of image stream input interfaces and an image stream output interface, and wherein the switching matrix is configured to selectively map an image stream input interface of the plurality of image stream input interfaces to the image stream output interface; receiving a second command from a second user by way of the collaborative control interface, wherein the second command relates to configuring the switching matrix; storing the first command and the second command in a queue; performing the first command and the second command in accordance with the queue, thereby configuring the switching matrix in accordance with the first command and the second command; receiving an original image stream from the image stream input interface of the plurality of image stream input interfaces; and using the switching matrix to selectively map the original image stream to the image stream output interface.
