An electronic programming guide (EPG) system employs a preference engine and processing system that learns viewers' television watching preferences by monitoring their viewing patterns. The system operates transparently to build a profile of a viewer's tastes. The profile is used to provide services, for example, recommending or automatically recording television programs the viewer might be interested in watching. To permit the personalization of the preferences database, a user interface is provided to allow the user to simulate various kinds of interaction with the system. This allows the system to build a profile rapidly without requiring a long interaction history to personalize the system.

A cockpit display system has a display, such as a multi-function display (MFD) for displaying a graphical representation of an input device when a sensor senses that an aviator's finger is proximate to the input device. The display graphically depicts in real-time the position of the aviator's finger relative to the buttons of the input device. The aviator's finger can be depicted by an icon, shading or highlighting. When the aviator lightly touches a button, the graphical representation of that button can for example be highlighted, shaded or colored. Furthermore, when the button is firmly depressed, the graphical representation of that button can change color or shading. The aviator can thus operate any awkwardly located input device by simply reaching toward the input device and then guiding his finger to the correct button by looking at the graphical representation of the input device.

A hand pattern switch device capable of easily and reliably detecting a hand pattern or a palm motion of an operator. From a picked-up image of a distal arm, an axis passing through the centroid of a hand is determined as a central axis passing through the center of arm. At least either first scanning lines perpendicular to the central axis or second scanning lines extending along the central axis are set between a fingertip and a palm center. While changing the scanning line to be examined from the fingertip side toward the palm center, a determination is made to determine how many number of scanning lines for each of which a finger width equal to or larger than a predetermined width is detected are present, thereby making a detection of whether or not the finger is extended from the palm.

Described is a computer-implemented system and method that dynamically detects which input device (e.g., pen or mouse) is currently in use, and based on the device, varies a program's user interaction model to better optimize the user's ability to interact with the program via that input device. A tablet input subsystem receives pen and touch data, and also obtains keyboard and mouse data. The subsystem analyzes the data and determines which input device is currently active. The active device is mapped to an interaction model, whereby different user interface appearances, behaviors and the like may be presented to the user to facilitate improved interaction. For example, a program may change the size of user interface elements to enable the user to more accurately scroll and make selections. Timing, tolerances and thresholds may change. Pen hovering can become active, and interaction events received at the same location can be handled differently.
