Abstract

A system for modularizing the functionality of an electronic device (10). The system includes a first mechanism for separating different functional blocks of the electronic device into spatially separable hardware modules (12, 14, 16). A second mechanism interfaces the hardware modules via spatially reconfigurable communications links (38, 40). In a specific embodiment, the spatially reconfigurable communications links are infrared links or optical links.
