Zusammenfassung:A dock connects to a user's host device and provides video output to a display. The host device is a computing device that executes one or more applications. One or more controllers are peripheral devices that can be used to control applications on the host device. A service module provides support for additional communication profiles that are more versatile than the communication profiles supported by the operating system on the host device. The service module establishes a unidirectional connection between the host device and the peripheral devices as well as a bidirectional connection. A control scheme identifying an operating mode associated with a peripheral device is retrieved from a server. The peripheral device is configured to send data to the host device in a format recognizable by one or more applications based on the operating scheme.
