Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for automatically determining a state signature for consumer electronic device(s) coupled to a switching device and/or other devices communicatively coupled to the consumer electronic device(s). The state signature is indicative of functional state(s) in which the consumer electronic device(s) are in. Such states include a power state, a proximity state, a communication state, and/or an operational state of the consumer electronic device(s). Based on the state signature(s), the switching device may infer which of the consumer electronic device(s) the user would like to use (or is using) and cause action(s) to be performed. Such actions include automatically switching to the AV port(s) to which such consumer electronic device(s) are connected, transmitting command(s) to such consumer electronic device(s), transmitting a notification message to such consumer electronic device(s), etc.

Claim (Index 12):
An HDMI-based switching device, comprising:\n a plurality of HDMI ports; a characteristic identification component configured to determine a state characteristic of a consumer electronic device that is communicatively coupled to the HDMI-based switching device; a signature determination component configured to determine a state signature of the consumer electronic device based on the determined state characteristic; and an action determination component configured to:\n identify an action to be performed by the consumer electronic device from a plurality of actions using based on the determined state signature and a data structure that comprises a state signature-to-action mapping; and \n cause the action to be performed with respect to at least one of the HDMI-based switching device or the consumer electronic device.
