Context aware dynamic interface

摘要

A method performed in a transmitter operable to provide multiple functions, comprising identifying available functions, receiving input relating to a current user context, based on said context, selecting a subset of functions from said available functions, and dynamically generating said user interface, said user interface arranged to present user activatable items representing each of the functions in said subset, and, upon activation of one of said items, performing a function associated with said item in accordance with said user context. A system with a transmitter adapted to perform the method. The disclosed method and system creates a fully dynamic user interface where the context and user should be able to define what should be available where in the interface without additional programming.

1. A method performed in a mobile transmitter operable to
provide multiple functions for remote control of a controllable electronic equipment, said method comprising:
identifying available functions, wherein each function is provided for controlling a functionality to be performed by the controllable electronic equipment,receiving input relating to a current user context, wherein said user context includes a physical location of said mobile transmitter, wherein the physical location is determined by the mobile transmitter,based on said context, selecting a subset of functions from said available functions, and dynamically generating said user interface, said user interface arranged to present user activatable items for the controllable electronic equipment to be controlled, representing each of the functions in said subset, andupon activation of one of said items, performing a function associated with said item in accordance with said user context, thereby controlling the corresponding functionality of the controllable electronic equipment,wherein said user interface is automatically adapted when the mobile transmitter determines a change in the physical location of the mobile transmitter.
