| 20090289946 | VIDEO MATRIX DISPLAY INTERFACE - In a video matrix display interface, an interface includes one or more subsystems to receive information from a plurality of display devices, compile the information from the plurality of display devices, report the compiled information to a graphics processing device, generate a video image using the compiled information, the image to be viewable across the plurality of display devices, splice the video image into portions and transmit the video image portions to the plurality of display devices, thereby creating a continuous image across the plurality of display devices. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20100245390 | System And Method For Automatic Monitor Orientation Without Information Handling System Host Polling - Visual images presented on an information handling system display automatically adjust to changes in the orientation of the display. An orientation device on the display detects changes in display orientation and sends an interrupt to an information handling system orientation module. The orientation module responds to the interrupt by retrieving orientation information from the display and adjusting the visual images to align with the orientation of the display. | 09-30-2010 |

| 20100020482 | Externally Connectable Thin Display - A display system includes a display chassis defining a display chassis housing. A display panel is located in the display chassis housing. A power supply module chassis defines a power supply module housing and is coupled to the display chassis outside of the display chassis housing. A power supply module is located in the power supply module housing and coupled to the display panel. Such display system architecture allows the display chassis to be much thinner than conventional externally connectable display chassis. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100241890 | Power Management Methods and Systems Using An External Power Supply - A method for managing power to an information handling system (IHS) is disclosed wherein the method includes providing a battery and an external power supply operable to supply power to the IHS. The method also includes providing an application programming interface (API) to the IHS, wherein the API is configured to monitor a first parameter and a second parameter. The method further includes supplying power to the IHS via the external power supply if the first parameter reaches a first threshold level and supplying power to the IHS via the battery if the second parameter reaches a second threshold level. An information handling system (IHS) is further disclosed including an external power supply, a battery, and a controller operable to select between the external power supply and the battery to supply power to the IHS. The IHS further includes an application programmable interface (API) operable to monitor a first parameter and direct the controller to select the external power supply to supply power to the IHS if the first parameter reaches a first threshold level, and wherein the API is further operable to monitor a second parameter and direct the controller to select the battery to supply power to the IHS if the second parameter reaches a second threshold level. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20090175397 | Method, System and Apparatus for Reducing Power Consumption at Low to Midrange Resolution Settings - A method for reducing power consumption in an information handling system (IHS) where the method includes receiving main data through a main link, wherein the main link provides at least one data lane. The IHS also receives a reference clock corresponding to the main data through an auxiliary channel and provides the reference clock to a first phase-lock loop, wherein the first phase-lock loop outputs a stream clock. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20090187686 | Methods and Appartus for Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) Switching - A method for providing communication between a plurality of input/output (I/O) devices and a plurality of information handling systems (IHSs). The method includes providing a first port coupled to the plurality of I/O devices and providing a first channel of the first port for video data. The method also includes providing a second channel of the first port utilized for I/O data and providing a second port coupled to a first IHS of the plurality of IHSs, wherein the first IHS provides video data via the first channel, and the first IHS transmits and receives the I/O data via the second channel. | 07-23-2009 |

| 20100271289 | System and Method for Authenticating a Display Panel in an Information Handling System - A method includes determining if a display connection is in an information handling system, reading configuration information from a display, determining whether the configuration information identifies the display as an internal device, and training a data link. A memory includes code to perform a method of determining if a display connection is in an information handling system, reading configuration information from a display, determining if the configuration information identifies the display as an internal device, and training a data link. An information handling system includes a memory with code, a display, and a graphics processor that executes the code. The code operates to determine if a display connection is in the information handling system, read configuration information from the display, determine if the configuration information identifies the display as an internal device, and train a data link. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110016332 | System and Method for Powering an Information Handling System Through a Display Cable - A display provides power to an information handling system through a display cable. The display cable includes a power wire and an auxiliary channel. The display and information handling system communicate through the auxiliary channel to coordinate power transfer from the display to the information handling system, such as in the form of a trickle charge to a battery integrated in the information handling system. | 01-20-2011 |

| 20080205519 | Displayport CE system control functionality - An improved method and apparatus is disclosed for communicating control information between components of an audio/video system. Processing and control logic is implemented to transfer a plurality of data streams on predetermined channels of a digital video interface. A first data stream contains video data received by a video interface receiver, where it is used to generate an image on a digital display. A second data stream contains control data, which is similarly received by the video interface receiver, and is used to control source devices coupled to the digital display. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090009428 | Enhanced Brightness, Color and Contrast Control for Cathode Ray Tube Monitor - A method and apparatus for controlling brightness, color and contrast in CRT monitors used in information handling systems. In accordance with the present invention, a viewing area on a CRT monitor is enhanced by applying appropriate signals directly to the grids in the CRT. In one embodiment of the present invention, appropriate voltage signals are applied to the G | 01-08-2009 |
