Abstract
An equipment detection system includes a processor, a communication module, and a display module. The processor is configured to detect a connection to an external device. The processor enumerates device information about the external device, obtains user information from a local host, and generates a data structure according to the device information and the user information. The processor is included in the local host. The communication module is configured to transmit the data structure and receive status information. The status information includes a placement space corresponding to the external device or the status of the external device. The status information is associated with the data structure. Moreover, the display module is configured to display the status information.
