A multi-modal human computer interface (HCI) receives a plurality of available information inputs concurrently, or serially, and employs a subset of the inputs to determine or infer user intent with respect to a communication or information goal. Received inputs are respectively parsed, and the parsed inputs are analyzed and optionally synthesized with respect to one or more of each other. In the event sufficient information is not available to determine user intent or goal, feedback can be provided to the user in order to facilitate clarifying, confirming, or augmenting the information inputs.

The method provides a browsing environment for a user in a free space through proactive interface design and dragging-style operation gesture. The method contains the following steps. First, an interface is provided, which contains a number of selection items. Then, an automatic selection zone is provided in the interface. Then, by pressing down a button of a remote control device and moving the remote control device, the selection items are scrolled. Then, as a selection item enters the automatic selection zone, the selection item becomes the automatic selected item, and clicking the selection item would execute the selection item. With this method, a remote control device with a single key could be conveniently used for browsing menu, setting configuration, and Internet navigation without looking at the remote control device.

The high throughput UART to DSP interface (UDIF) maintains UART functionality while integrating dual Transmit (Tx) and Receive (Rx) FIFO buffers that are optimized for more efficient interaction with their respective I/O processors. The portion of the interface design interacting with the DSP, the UDIF, provides several unique Status, Informational, and Control registers that lower the DSP overhead required for many of the basic modem functions. The UDIF design also performs parity add, parity strip, and character echo functions, traditionally performed at a high overhead cost by the DSP. These functions are more efficiently preformed by hardware implementations than by the software routines executed by the DSP. More burdensome command functions like escape, AT, and flow control commands can also be implemented through hardware implementations to reduce processor overhead.

The invention relates to providing to a user a user interface. It is determining from a plurality interactions by a user with a first user interface whether they experienced difficulties using at least one module of the first user interface. Responsive to determining that the user did experience difficulties, that user is provided with at least one module of a different user interface. Thus it can be seen that a user is preferably provided with the first interface unless they experience difficulties with that interface. Other users who do not experience such difficulties continue to interact with the first interface.
