Embodiment Construction

[0018] The present invention relates to methods, systems and computer program products for adjusting user interface elements. Various embodiments of the invention include altering the user interface. In some embodiments, usage information related to the user interface is accessed. The usage information describes the interaction of one or more users with elements of the user interface on one or more devices. User interface elements of interest are identified based on the usage information. One or more of the identified user interface elements of interest are determined to be adjusted based on the usage information to optimize user interaction with the user interface. One or more of the identified user elements are adjusted within the user interface. Accordingly, the presentation of the one or more identified user interface elements is changed on the display device.

[0019] In other embodiments, historical usage information related to the user interface is accessed. Histor...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of adjusting user interface element, a system and computer program products. In each embodiment of the invention, the user interface elements and the size, shape and position of a vacant zone can be adjusted based on a using data history. The adjustment can reduce cognitive loads related to selected user interface elements. For example, in a vehicle moving dangerous condition, the reduction of cognitive loads allows a user to focus on safe operations of the moving vehicle. The historic using data can be traced back to one or more users and one or more equipments. The limit value adjustment can be used for ensuring the user interface is properly kept valid. The adjustment on the user interface element can be used for optimizing user interfaces and / or influencing user interaction with user interfaces.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to user interfaces, and more particularly to adjusting user interface elements. Background technique [0002] Computer systems and related technologies affect many aspects of society. Indeed, the ability of computer systems to process information has transformed the way people live and work. Computer systems now routinely perform many tasks that were performed manually before computer systems (eg, word processing, scheduling, accounting, etc.). More recently, computer systems have been coupled to each other and to other electronic devices to form wired and wireless computer networks over which the computer systems and other electronic devices can communicate electronic data. Accordingly, the performance of many computing tasks is distributed across multiple different computer systems and / or multiple different computing environments. [0003] On many devices, especially mobile devices and devices used in confined space a...
