CHILD-SAFE MEDIA INTERACTION

摘要

A safe-media interaction system includes distinct child and parent interfaces through which a child can interact with content and applications that are selected and authorized by a parent through the parent interface. The child interface allows a young child who has not yet acquired any reading skills, verbal skills, or visual organization skills to select a content item or application feature from a selection of such items/features visually presented to the child and interact with the selected item/feature through a general purpose computer interface such as a touch screen or keyboard with labels placed over selected keys. The safe-media interaction system also supports special purpose interfaces such as remote controls, kid-safe toys, and a dance pad to facilitate early childhood use of the system.
