Abstract

This disclosure describes a system and method that bridges communications between multiple unified communication (UC) clients. This disclosure provides a UC bridging tool configured to execute computer implemented instructions using the processor and memory. The processor is further configured to: receive UC client specific human interface device HID commands from a plurality of UC clients with a UC client driver module, wherein each UC client driver is configured to translate UC client specific human interface device (HID) commands for each UC client driver to a common format; receive HID commands in the common format and translate the HID commands from the common format into a device specific format with a UC audio assistant module; pass the HID commands in the device specific format to an output device with a device specific driver module that further comprises a set of device specific drivers.
