SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A NETWORKED DISPLAY

摘要

Methods and systems for controlling a networked display via a client device are provided. The client device and the networked display are connected by a network. A session is initiated between the client device and the networked display, and a remote user interface is transmitted from the networked display to the client device. Interactivity with the remote user interface is detected at the client device, and input data is transmitted from the client device to the networked display based on the interactivity with the remote user interface. The input data is interpreted at the networked display so as to cause a change in a state of an application being executed by the networked display. And the remote user interface is updated based on the changed state of the application executed by the networked display.

1. A method for controlling a networked display via a client device, the client device and the networked display being connected by a network, the method comprising:
rendering broadcast content on the networked display; executing an application on the networked display, the application configured to render application content that is additional to and coordinated to the broadcast content that is being rendered on the networked display; initiating a session between the client device and a local server, the local server being integrated as a part of the networked display, the session defined by two-way communication between the client device and the local server; retrieving, by the local server, a user interface that is configured for execution of the application and for the client device; transmitting the user interface from the local server to the client device for rendering at the client device; receiving, by the local server, input data from the client device based on detected interactivity with the rendered user interface; and interpreting the input data at the networked display so as to cause a change in a state of the application being executed by the networked display.
