Abstract

In accordance with the present disclosure, multi-user peer-to-peer collaboration systems and methods are described herein. An example method may include establishing peer-to-peer communications channels with end-user devices. Display signals may be received from each of the end-user devices over the peer-to-peer communications channels. Each end-user device may transmit a separate display of a separate peer-to-peer communications channel. A composite data stream may be generated from the display signals. The composite data stream may comprise a subset of the display signals. The method may further include outputting the composite data stream to a display device.
