TECHNICAL FIELD 
       [0001]    This disclosure relates to mobile wireless office setup and configuration. 
       BACKGROUND 
       [0002]    Rapid advances in communication technologies, driven by immense customer demand, have resulted in the widespread adoption of mobile communication devices. Many of these devices, e.g., tablet computers, support multiple different wireless communication protocols, such as 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ad (or other variants of WiFi), Bluetooth, and other protocols. These advances have made it more complex and therefore more difficult to quickly setup such devices, configure their communication interfaces for secure and controlled communications, and collaboratively engage the devices in a controlled exchange of information.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
       [0011]      FIG. 1  shows an example of a portable component carrier (“carrier”)  100  for a mobile office system.  FIG. 8  shows a perspective view  800  that helps to illustrate depth for the carrier  100  shown in  FIG. 1 , and its compartments. The carrier  100  provides a self-contained solution that houses, in a compact case, a set of components and devices that may be used to deliver a presentation, power and recharge the communication devices used in the presentation, provide audio output, network the communication devices together, and perform other functions. The carrier  100  may vary widely in size, shape, and configuration. In one implementation, the carrier  100  has a form factor compliant with overhead luggage measurements acceptable for U.S. or international airline flights. In other implementations, the carrier  100  may be larger, e.g., when additional components are included in the system, or smaller, e.g., when fewer components are included in the system. 
         [0012]    The carrier  100  greatly facilitates setting up and executing presentations on wireless communication devices, as well as updating presentations. The carrier  100  may include a set of devices that provide a variety of ways to give presentations, e.g., via tablet computers or via a projector, and the presentation may include both audio and video components. The devices in the carrier  100  support a controlled presentation for multiple people for any given length of time, e.g., for 22 or more people for 90 or more minutes. In addition, the devices in the carrier  100  may include a data collection device configured to collect attendance and survey data. 
         [0013]    The wireless communication devices may be tablet computers, cellular phones, netbooks, or any other device that supports wireless communication over 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ad (or other variants of WiFi), Bluetooth, or any other protocol. The wireless communication devices may be assigned roles for the purposes of the presentation, such as a presenter role and a receiver role. In the presenter role, a wireless communication device may transmit the audio/visual data for the presentation to any number of receivers. The wireless communication devices in the receiver role may then receive and play back the audio/visual data in synchronism with the presenter. As just one example, the wireless communication devices may implement presentation sharing capability provided by, e.g., the Idea Flight presentation sharing solution available from Conde Nast, but other presentation delivery mechanisms may be used. 
         [0014]      FIG. 1  shows the carrier  100  with the devices and components removed. The carrier  100  includes a first compartment  102 , a second compartment  104 , and a coupling  150  between the first compartment  102  and the second compartment  104  that permits the first compartment  102  and the second compartment  104  to close together. The coupling  150  may be one or more hinges, for instance. The coupling  150  may allow the first compartment  102  and the second compartment  104  to close upon one another, e.g., in the same manner as a suitcase. The first compartment  102  may be referred to or considered as the bottom compartment and the second compartment  104  may be referred to or considered as the top compartment of the carrier  100 . However, the labels “top” and “bottom” are simply used as reference points for describing the structure of the carrier  100 , and other labels may be given instead. 
         [0015]    The first compartment  102  and second compartment  104  may be configured in many different ways. One particular configuration is provided below. However, any carrier may define other arrangements, positions, and locations for the devices and components of the system. 
         [0016]    The first compartment  102  includes multiple individual wireless communication device component placement structures (e.g.,  106 ,  108 ,  110 ). These structures may be sequentially arranged in an array  112  that defines a wireless communication device storage section  114  within the first compartment  102 . In this example, the structures are individual fingers of material (e.g., foam) that partially extend into the cavity  122  to engage and secure the wireless communication devices. The wireless communication device component placement structures define individual wireless communication device placement locations (e.g.,  116 ,  118 ,  120 ) that securely hold the wireless communication devices, e.g., via an interference fit against adjacent fingers. The placement locations are, in this example, apertures into which tablet computers may be inserted. 
         [0017]    The wireless communication device storage section  114  is adapted to store multiple instances of the same or different pre-determined wireless communication devices, for instance a tablet computer. In the example in  FIG. 1 , the array  112  secures 11 tablet computers, but the array  112  may be modified to store additional or fewer tablet computers (or any other wireless communication device). 
         [0018]    The first compartment  102  may also include a speaker component placement structure  124 , e.g., adjacent to the wireless communication device storage section  114 . The speaker component placement structure  124  defines a speaker placement location  126  adapted to receive a speaker. The speaker may be virtually any type of speaker, such as a portable powered Bluetooth speaker. The speaker component placement structure  124  may be implemented as foam walls that define the speaker placement location  126 , and that may provide an interference fit against the speaker to help secure the speaker in place.  FIG. 8  includes shading to indicate where foam may be provided to define the component placement structures used in the carrier  100 , including as just one example the speaker component placement structure  124 . 
         [0019]    The first compartment  102  may also include a cable component placement structure  128 , e.g., adjacent to the speaker component placement structure  124 . The cable component placement structure  128  defines a cable placement location  130  adapted to receive, e.g., electrical cables or other components, for any of the devices in the carrier  100 . The cable component placement structure  128  may be implemented as foam walls that define the cable placement location  130 . In some implementations, a cover (e.g., a corrugated plastic piece) may be provided to sit over or on top of the cable placement location  130 . Further, a strap may be provided to secure the cover in place over the cable placement location  130  to facilitate retaining the components in the cable placement location  130 . 
         [0020]    The first compartment  102  may also include a charging component placement structure  132 , e.g., adjacent to at least one of the multiple wireless communication device component placement structures, the speaker component placement structure  124 , and the cable component placement structure  128 . The charging component placement structure  132  defines a charging placement location  134  adapted to receive charging modules, power strips for the charging modules, or any other components that facilitate charging the wireless communication devices. In the example shown in  FIG. 1 , the charging component placement structure  132  is formed on one side by a foam wall  135 , and on the other sides by wall sections of the first compartment  102 . 
         [0021]    The second compartment  104  includes a wireless networking router component placement structure  152  defining a wireless networking router placement location  154  adapted to receive a pre-determined wireless networking router. Note that the wireless networking router placement location  154  extends across the width and height of the opening defined by the wireless networking router component placement structure  152 . In addition, the second compartment  104  includes a projector component placement structure  156 . In this example, the projector component placement structure  156  is located underneath the wireless networking router component placement structure  152 , thereby forming a multiple level component placement structure arrangement. The projector component placement structure  156  defines a projector placement location  158  adapted to receive a video projector. Accordingly, when stored, the projector rests underneath the wireless networking router. A buffer layer (e.g., of foam or padding) may be added on top of the projector to help buffer the projector from the wireless network router. There may be foam, padding, or both underneath all or part of the projector to provide a buffer for the projector. For instance,  FIG. 1  shows a foam area  166 , and a padding area  168 , each covering a portion of the bottom of the projector component placement location  158 . 
         [0022]    The second compartment  104  also includes a stand component placement structure  160  defining a stand placement location  162 . The stand placement location  162  is adapted to receive stands for the wireless communication devices. A cover, e.g. a corrugated plastic piece, may be provided to cover the stands. In addition, a strap may be provided to secure the cover over the stand placement location  162  to facilitate retaining the stands in the stand placement location  162 . 
         [0023]    As noted above, the wireless communication device component placement structures define individual wireless communication device placement locations. The individual wireless communication device placement locations may have a depth selected to leave exposed a charging port on the wireless communication device, when the wireless communication device is inserted into the individual wireless communication device placement location. More generally, the wireless communication device component placement structures may have a depth that leaves exposed a portion of the pre-determined wireless communication device when the pre-determined wireless communication device is inserted into the individual wireless communication device placement location. In that regard, the second compartment  104  may also include an opening  164  adapted to receive, when the portable component carrier  100  is closed, the portions of the pre-determined wireless communication devices that are exposed. 
         [0024]    There are many ways in which the carrier may be constructed. For instance, starting with empty compartments  102  and  104 , relatively rigid foam inserts may be fabricated and inserted into the compartments to define the placement structures and placement locations. Materials other than foam may be used. The straps may be secured to the compartments at locations underneath the foam inserts. The straps may include hook and loop or other fasteners to secure the straps in place over the components and devices. In one implementation the strap for the cover for the cable placement location  130  is sized to also accept, underneath the strap, a data collection device (e.g., a separate tablet computer) that may collect attendance, survey, or any other data relevant to the presentation. 
         [0025]      FIG. 2  shows a view of the first compartment  102  and the second compartment  104  with devices and components in place in their placement locations. In the first compartment  102  are tablet computers  202  secured in the individual wireless communication device placement locations, a wireless powered speaker  204  secured in the speaker placement location, a data collection device  206  secured under the strap  208  over the cable placement location. Also shown is a portion of the cover  210  over the cable placement location, as well as power strips  212  and charging modules  214  in place in the charging placement location. Note that the power strips  212  may be selected to have power sockets oriented in a manner that allows the charging modules  214  to plug into the power strip simultaneously. In other words, the power sockets support simultaneously connection by a set of charging modules  214 , and in turn recharging by multiple wireless communication devices at the same time (and without being removed from their placement locations). As shown in  FIG. 2 , the power strips have six power sockets oriented so that six USB chargers may simultaneously plug into the power strips. 
         [0026]    In the second compartment  104  is the wireless networking router  216 , secured in the wireless networking router placement location. A strap  218  helps to secure the wireless networking router in place. Underneath the wireless networking router  216  is a portable projector secured in the projector placement location. A strap  220  is also shown that helps secure the stands in place in the stand placement location  158 . 
         [0027]      FIG. 3  shows the carrier  100  with the compartments nearly closed. The carrier  100  may include wheels  302  to facilitate convenient transport of the carrier. Wheels are not required, however. 
         [0028]      FIG. 4  shows another view  400  of a bottom compartment  402  for a portable component carrier.  FIG. 4  also shows a structural (e.g., foam) insert  404 . The structural insert  404  may be separately fabricated and attached into an empty shell compartment  406  in order to provide any desired component placement structures for the carrier. 
         [0029]    Further, padding may be present under any of the component placement structures.  FIG. 4  shows example padding thicknesses: ½ inch under the charging component placement structure  132 , ¼ inch under the wireless communication device component placement structures, ¾″ under the speaker component placement structure  124 , and ¼ inch under the cable component placement structure  128 . 
         [0030]    Any of the padding may be configurable in thickness. For instance, the case  100  may include additional pads (e.g.,  408  and  410 ) of any thickness that fit into the wireless communication device component placement locations. Adding pads to the bottom of the placement locations adjusts the depth of the placement locations, and allows for placement locations that adapt to any particular device. As a specific example, when a less wide wireless communication device is stored in the case  100 , additional pads may be inserted to raise the wireless communication device and thereby, e.g., keep a charging port exposed, or keep exposed a pre-determined portion of the wireless communication device to facilitate insertion into and removal the component placement structure. 
         [0031]      FIG. 5  shows another view of a top compartment  502  for a portable component carrier.  FIG. 5  also shows a structural (e.g., foam) insert  504 . All or some of the structural inserts  404  and  504  may be made with different materials. For instance, the structural insert  504  includes a corrugated plastic wall  508  inserted between the foam sections  510  and  512  in order to help define the stand component placement structure  160 . As with the insert for the bottom compartment  402 , the structural insert  504  may be separately fabricated and attached into an empty shell compartment  506  in order to provide any desired component placement structures for the carrier. 
         [0032]    Again, padding may be present under any of the component placement structures.  FIG. 5  shows an example padding thickness of ¼ inch under the projector component placement structure  156 . Padding may also be added under the opening  164  to provide a buffer for the exposed portions of the wireless communication devices when the compartments are closed.  FIG. 5  also shows the buffer layer  514  that may be added on top of the projector to help buffer the projector from the wireless network router that sits on top. An access cavity  516  may be defined adjacent to the buffer layer  514  or projector component placement structure  156  to provide an area into which fingers or tools may be inserted to help remove the buffer layer  514  or projector. A structure cavity  518  may be defined to accommodate projector structure, such as the projector lens. 
         [0033]      FIG. 6  shows a method  600  for constructing a portable component carrier, e.g., a method that a manufacturer may implement to build portable component carriers. The method  600  may include providing a closeable case ( 602 ), e.g., a suitcase including a top compartment and a bottom compartment connected by a hinge. The method  600  may also include stripping out the interior of the case in order to provide shell compartments (e.g., the shell compartments  406  and  506 ).  FIG. 7  shows an example of empty shell compartments  700  in a portable component carrier. Continuing the example shown in the Figures above,  FIG. 7  provides a view of the empty shell compartment  406  that will become the first compartment  102 , and a view of the empty shell compartment  506  that will become the second compartment  104 . 
         [0034]    in which component placement structures may be defined, inserted, or otherwise provided. In that respect, the method  600  includes determining which component placement structures to implement in the shell compartments ( 606 ). 
         [0035]    Several examples are given in  FIG. 6 , but note that a component carrier may be configured to securely hold any selected devices or components. For instance, when the carrier will hold wireless communication devices ( 608 ), the manufacturer may provide, within the carrier, a wireless communication device component placement structure (e.g., structures  106 ,  108 ,  110 ) in any desired shell compartment ( 610 ). Similarly, when the carrier will hold a wireless networking router ( 612 ), the manufacturer may provide, within the carrier, a wireless networking router device component placement structure (e.g., the structure  152 ) in any desired shell compartment ( 610 ). 
         [0036]    As another example, when the carrier will hold a projector ( 616 ), the manufacturer may provide a projector component placement structure (e.g., the structure  156 ) in any desired shell compartment ( 610 ). When the carrier will hold a speaker ( 620 ), the manufacturer may provide a speaker component placement structure (e.g., the structure  124 ) in a selected shell compartment ( 622 ). Similarly, when the carrier will hold cables ( 624 ), chargers ( 628 ), or stands ( 632 ), the manufacturer may implement cable component placement structures (e.g., the structure  128 ) ( 626 ), charger component placement structures (e.g., the structure  132 ) ( 630 ), or stand component placement structures (e.g., the structure  160 ) ( 634 ). Of course, a manufacturer may determine to store any other device or component in the carrier ( 636 ), and provide corresponding component placement structure ( 638 ). 
         [0037]    Table 1, below, summarizes a specific example implementation of the carrier  100 .

         [0039]    In one implementation, the component placement structures are fabricated from Polyethylene Foam  21   b . The opening  164  may be defined with a Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam  21   b  measuring approximately 10.5″×8.25″ to provide additional protection for the wireless communication devices when carrier  100  is closed. 
         [0040]    Various implementations have been specifically described. However, many other implementations are also possible. For example, different types of foam with differing density, composition, and resiliency may securely hold the components in place. As another example, the foam may have different colors at different locations to help guide the identification of components, e.g., foam of a particular color for the components to remove first, or foam of a particular color to identify components related to chargers. As yet another example, the overall size and shape of the kit may vary widely to provide more or less room for additional passenger components, chargers, stands, and the like.
A mobile office system provides a portable, convenient, and efficient framework for setting up communication devices, establishing connectivity, and delivering interactive presentations. The mobile office system includes a portable component carrier. Inside the portable component carrier are component placement structures that define placement locations at which the specific components of the mobile office may be placed, stored, and secured. As one example, the component placement structures may define slots configured to securely hold tablet computers in place during movement of the portable component carrier.
