US Patent 11803606 Device augmentation of real time communications

Methods and systems for augmenting communications using input data from mobile devices are described herein. A computing device may establish a connection with a mobile device having one or more input devices. The computing device may display a barcode that, when scanned by a mobile device, causes the mobile device to access a web page. The web page may be configured to cause the mobile device to transmit, e.g., via a web browser executing on the mobile device and to the computing device, input data from the input devices. The input data may be used by the computing device to replicate a physical input device connected to the computing device. The computing device may transmit the input data to a different computing device.
