Abstract:
An entertainment system includes video display units that can establish Bluetooth connections with user terminals. A central Bluetooth controller is connected to control establishment of Bluetooth connections between the user terminals and the video display units. The central Bluetooth controller receives connection authorization requests from the video display units, and generates connection authorization decisions based on application of a Bluetooth connection rule to characteristics of the user terminals which are identified from the connection authorization requests. The connection authorization decisions are then used to control whether Bluetooth connections are established between the user terminals and the video display units, and to control what security mode levels are used when establishing and using the Bluetooth connections for signaling therebetween.

Claim (Index 1):
An entertainment system comprising:\n a plurality of video display units each comprising:\n a network interface; \n a Bluetooth transceiver configured to communicate through Bluetooth signaling with user terminals; \n a video display device; and \n a processor configured to:\n receive a Bluetooth connection request from a user terminal; \n identify a characteristic of the user terminal based on the Bluetooth connection request; \n communicate a connection authorization request through the network interface of the video display unit, the connection authorization request containing an indication of the characteristic of the user terminal; \n receive a connection authorization response through the network interface of the video display unit; \n control establishment of a Bluetooth connection through the Bluetooth transceiver with the user terminal responsive to content of the connection authorization response; and \n when a Bluetooth connection is established, display information that is received from the user terminal through the Bluetooth connection on the video display device; and \n \n a central Bluetooth controller comprising:\n a network interface configured to communicate with the network interfaces of the video display units; and \n a processor configured to control establishment of Bluetooth connections between user terminals and the video display units by operations comprising:\n receiving the connection authorization request from one of the video display units through the network interface of the central Bluetooth controller; \n identifying the characteristic of a user terminal based on the indication contained in the connection authorization request; \n generating a connection authorization decision based on application of a Bluetooth connection rule to the characteristic of the user terminal; \n generating a connection authorization response containing an indication of the connection authorization decision; and \n communicating the connection authorization response through the network interface to the one of the video display units.
