Abstract

A method, device, and system for sharing at least one display attribute associated with content displayed on the device with a target device is provided. The method includes identifying the at least one display attribute associated with content displayed in a source device, processing the identified at least one display attribute in accordance with an interoperability display ratio, and displaying the content on the target device after applying the processed at least one display attribute to the content. When content is shared between two devices, exchange of display attributes associated with the content helps in ensuring that the user experience of the content is similar at both the source device end and target device.

Claims

1. A method for sharing at least one display attribute associated with content displayed in a source device with a target device, the method comprising:

identifying at least one display attribute associated with the content by the source device;

processing the identified at least one display attribute in accordance with an interoperability display ratio; and

displaying the content on the target device after applying the processed at least one display attribute to the content.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising identifying the interoperability display ratio between the identified at least one display attribute and at least one display attribute of the target device.

3. The method as in claim 2, identifying the interoperability display ratio comprises comparing the identified at least one display attribute with the at least one display attribute of the target device.

4. The method as in claim 1, further comprising pairing the source device and the target device to share the identified at least one display attribute.

5. A system for sharing at least one display attribute associated with content, the system comprising:

a source device for identifying at least one display attribute associated with a content displayed, and sending the identified at least one display attribute and the content; and

a target device for processing the identified at least one display attribute in accordance with an interoperability display ratio, displaying the content on the target device after applying the processed at least one display attribute to the content.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein the target device identifies the interoperability display ratio between the identified at least one display attribute and at least one display attribute of the target device.

7. The system of claim 6, wherein the target device identifies the interoperability display ratio by comparing the identified at least one display attribute with the at least one display attribute of the target device.

8. The system of claim 5, wherein the source device shares the identified at least one display attribute with the target device through pairing.

9. A device for sending at least one display attribute associated with content displayed in the device to a target device, wherein the device comprises:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory having recorded thereon a computer program,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to;

identify at least one display attribute associated with the content displayed in the device; and

send the identified at least one display attribute to the target device.

10. A device for receiving at least one display attribute associated with content from a source device, wherein the device comprises:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory having recorded thereon a computer program,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to;

process at least one display attribute received from the source device in accordance with an interoperability display ratio; and

display the content after applying the processed at least one display attribute to the content.

11. The device of claim 10, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to identify the interoperability display ratio between the at least one display attribute associated with the content received from the source device and at least one display attribute of the device.

12. The device as in claim 11, wherein identifying the interoperability display ratio comprises comparing the at least one display attribute associated with the content received from the source device with the at least one display attribute of the device.
