1. A small form factor electronic device, comprising:

  • a processor;

    an interface engine in communication with the processor; and

    a sensor coupled to the processor arranged to;

    detect at least one environmental factor, andpass an indication of the detected environmental factor to the processor, wherein the processor and the interface engine cooperate to;

    determine that an environment of the electronic device has changed based on the indication of the detected environmental factor,identify an updated human interface in response to determining that the environment has changed,determine that a level of interactivity corresponding to the updated human interface is at least greater than a threshold level of interactivity, andcause the small form factor electronic device to present the updated human interface only if the level of interactivity corresponding to the updated human interface is at least greater than the threshold level of interactivity.
