CONTEXT AWARE DYNAMIC INTERFACE
First Claim
1. A method performed in a transmitter operable to provide multiple functions, said method comprising:
- identifying available functions,receiving input relating to a current user context,based on said context, selecting a subset of functions from said available functions, and dynamically generating said user interface, said user interface arranged to present user activatable items representing each of the functions in said subset, andupon activation of one of said items, performing a function associated with said item in accordance with said user context,wherein said user interface is automatically adapted to changes in said current user context.

Abstract
A method performed in a transmitter operable to provide multiple functions, comprising identifying available functions, receiving input relating to a current user context, based on said context, selecting a subset of functions from said available functions, and dynamically generating said user interface, said user interface arranged to present user activatable items representing each of the functions in said subset, and, upon activation of one of said items, performing a function associated with said item in accordance with said user context. A system with a transmitter adapted to perform the method. The disclosed method and system creates a fully dynamic user interface where the context and user should be able to define what should be available where in the interface without additional programming.

9. A system for enabling user interaction with controllable equipment, comprising:
-
a plurality of controllers, each connected to a piece of equipment and adapted to control said piece of equipment, a transmitter, adapted to transmit commands to said controllers, said transmitter being adapted to; identify available functions, receive input relating to a current user context, based on said context, select a subset of functions from said available functions, and to dynamically generate said user interface, said user interface arranged to present user activatable items representing each of the functions in said subset, wherein said transmitter is programmed to, upon activation of one of said items, perform a function associated with said item in accordance with said user context. - View Dependent Claims (10)
