Embodiment
Hereinafter is for introducing most preferred embodiment of the present invention.Each embodiment is in order to explaining principle of the present invention, but is not in order to restriction the present invention.Scope of the present invention is when being as the criterion with appended claim.
Fig. 2 is computer extended seat (docking station) synoptic diagram of one embodiment of the invention.As known technology, computer extended seat 200 usefulness of the present invention are so that a computing machine and a plurality of computer peripheral apparatus line comprise a USB (universal serial bus, USB) input port 210 and a plurality of external delivery point mouth 230.Wherein, This USB input port 210 is in order to be connected to computing machine; And mode and this computing machine transmission data with " wired "; And said a plurality of external delivery point mouth 230 is in order to be coupled to a plurality of computer peripheral apparatus, also with mode and said a plurality of computer peripheral apparatus transmission data of " wired ".Mandatory declaration be; Though the fundamental purpose of computer extended seat is the user who is used for making things convenient for notebook computer; But it is not limited to be used on the notebook computer, and the computing machine of various support USB output is all among the range of application of computer extended seat of the present invention.Said a plurality of external delivery point mouths 230 of the present invention can be audio output port, RJ-45 output port, USB output port, PS/2 output port, parallel output terminal mouth and serial output terminal mouth.For example; This audio output port 230 can be in order to connect loudspeaker or sound equipment; RJ-45 output port 240 is in order to connect the network data machine, and the USB output port then can be used to connect the computer peripheral apparatus that keyboard, mouse, external hard drive, printer, video camera etc. are supported the USB transmission.Those of ordinary skills can change kind and the quantity of above-mentioned output port in computer extended seat 200 voluntarily according to spirit of the present invention.
Be different from known technology, computer extended seat 200 of the present invention also comprises a wireless demonstration (Wireless Display, WiDi) module 270 and a video-out port 280.Wireless display module 270 of the present invention can be through the video of radio receiver receiving computer " wireless " such as antenna output, and this video-out port 280 then exports an external display 290 in order to this video that will this wireless display module 270 be received.It should be noted that; Operation of the present invention comprises the WiDi technology that adopts Intel (Intel) company to provide; When computing machine was supported the WiDi technology, it can the mode with radio communication be sent to wireless display module 270 of the present invention through the Wi-Fi line with screen display content.
In one embodiment, video-out port 280 of the present invention can be Video Graphics Array (Video Graphics Array, VGA) interface or digital visual interface (Digital Visual Interface, DVI).Yet; In a most preferred embodiment; Video-out port 280 of the present invention is a high-definition multimedia interface (High-Definition Multimedia Interface; HDMI) output port, if this video that this wireless display module 270 is received is the HDMI signal, video-out port 280 then of the present invention can export this HDMI signal to external display.
In a better embodiment; In order to keep best image usefulness; Computer extended seat 200 of the present invention more can be when this USB input port 210 be connected to this computing machine; Whether the wireless display module 280 of checking this computer extended seat 200 install driver, and when inspection is found not install, the driver of this wireless display module 280 is installed automatically.Perhaps; In another embodiment; Computer extended seat 200 of the present invention can be when this USB input port 210 be connected to this computing machine; Whether the wireless display module 280 of checking this computer extended seat 200 has up-to-date driver, and when inspection finds that driver does not upgrade, and driver that automatically will this wireless display module 280 upgrades.
