Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems, methods and products directed toward switching device components between multiple operating environments available on an information handling device. One aspect includes switching operation of an information handling device between at least two operating environments responsive to a trigger event, the at least two operating environments comprising a primary and a secondary operating environment; and switching one or more device components from one of the at least two operating environments to the other of the at least two operating environments via a virtual switch operation facilitated by one or more embedded controllers disposed within the information handling device responsive to switching between the at least two operating environments. Other embodiments are described herein.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An information handling device comprising: a display device; a primary operating environment having a memory and a first operating system; a secondary operating environment having a memory and a mobile operating system; the primary and secondary operating environments sharing the display device; an embedded controller that accepts keyboard inputs, the embedded controller including: one or more processors; and a memory storing program instructions…
