UPnP Remote I/OExample user scenarios • A home PC remotely displaying application user interfaces on the living room television. • A DVR/set top box displays control menus on all televisions in the home.
UPnP events & control actions UPnP Remote I/O Home Server UPnP Remote I/OExample user scenarios • A home automation/security system displays controls and alerts on many UI devices
UPnP Remote I/OInformal vocabulary • "Remoting" - running application logic and user interface on different devices. • "Protocol" - the format of peer-to-peer communication between the application and remote UI (not standardized by UPnP Remote I/O). • "Remote I/O client device" - where the UI is executed/displayed. • "UI server" - exposes lists of remote-able applications and status of running applications.
UPnP Remote I/OSimpledevice definitions • UPnP Remote I/O clients: • Have controls for connecting & administering user interface sessions, • May expose protocol-required information: (display screen size, keyboard type, etc.) • UPnP Remote IO UI servers: • Expose lists of remote-able UIs, • Expose status of instantiated UIs and UI sessions, • Have controls for destroying instantiated, unconnected UIs.
UPnP Remote I/O Basic DCP • UPnP Remote I/O UI servers advertise listings of remote-enabled UIs. • UPnP Remote I/O control entities match UI descriptions with remote client capabilities and establish sessions. • Note: communication protocol between UI and client is not standardized - vendors choose. • Example protocols: MS RDP, Intel XRT, EIA775, etc.
Control Point 3 - Session 1 2 1.) Control point finds UI server andUI listings 2.) Control point finds client and supported protocols 3.) Control point matches UI and device protocol andstarts a session UPnP Remote I/O Example #1: Remote client UI server legend: standardized by UPnP Remote I/O not standardized
