Problems solved by technology

[0004] Some mobile phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs) have the same capabilities, but again they require application-specific code compiled for that type of device, and the user experience is not good

Embodiment Construction

[0029] The basic idea behind the present invention is to use as a user interface a plug-in device that can be plugged into existing multimedia providing equipment. The plug-in device is capable of establishing a communication link, preferably wireless, to a server device connected to the software application to be controlled.

[0030] By applying the present invention, the content selection mechanism is provided in the multimedia providing equipment as the user interface of the application. Plugins serve as the user interface.

[0031] In practice, content selection mechanisms for sending control commands to software applications are usually implemented as a (hierarchical) menu structure comprising a set of commands and possibly submenus. This is eg the case for conventional Windows / X11 based applications. In the present invention, the user interface is created by the server by mapping the user interface structure (hierarchy) of the content selection mechanism of the multime...

Abstract

The invention relates to a server device (10) for generating a user interface for a software application of a plug-in device (30). The server device is configured to exchange, through the plug-in device, first information related to selection of content in a communication device (50) connected to the plug-in device. The server device is further configured to monitor the software application and exchange second information with the software application related to controlling the software application, wherein the server device is further configured to provide the first information related to selecting content in the communication device and the second information related to the controlling software application conversion between information. The server device is configured to send status information back to the communication device in a suitable encoded form through the plug-in device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of remote user interfaces. Background technique [0002] Dedicated control screens now exist for various applications. Unfortunately, they are very expensive and they require application specific code compiled to work for the device in question. Since they require application-specific code compiled for the type of device on which they are deployed, the proposed solutions are usually tied to the applications they control. User experience is often bad. Prior art solutions are typically intended for fixed wall mounting, although they can have a WiFi wireless interface. Examples are available at http: / / www.embedded-web.com / products / sc-21x.html and http: / / www.tbe.it / terminale.htm. [0003] Programmable remote devices (as in e.g. the Philips Pronto TM range) are also expensive and offer difficult and limited customization, typically only at the level of toolbar customization (other buttons, other IR c...
