combined thin client / docking station

Hi,

We have a use-case for an office building to equip all desks with thin clients to login to virtual desktops. At the same time some users have laptops though and would prefer to simply hook up their laptop to the monitor and keyboard.

I have seen that there's a patent owned by DisplayLink for a device that can serve both purposes: thin client and docking station. It sounds like the use-case I have.

Does the device actually exist though??

best,
Maxim
