USABILITY USING BCC ENABLED DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method, performed in a communication device comprising a screen, for interaction with one or several users, where each user carries at least one personal communication device which is Body Coupled communication (BCC) enabled, the screen displays, to the one or several users, information comprising one or several user interface components and wherein the communication device comprises a selection indication means which is BCC enabled and the one or several users uses the selection indication means to make selection indications of user interface components on the screen, wherein the method comprises:
- registering a selection indication on the screen;
determining the position of the selection indication on the screen;
identifying a user interface component of the one or several user interface components which is associated with the position;
sending a BCC send signal through the selection indication means comprising a first information associated with the identified user interface component;
receiving a BCC response signal through the selection indication means, in response to the BCC send signal, from one of the personal communication devices, comprising a second information associated with the identified user interface component; and
initiating an action based on the second information.

Abstract
The present disclosure provides for a methods and devices for interaction with one or several users, where each user carries at least one personal communication device which is Body Coupled communication, BCC, enabled. A communication device comprises screen which displays information comprising user interface components and the communication device comprises a BCC enabled selection indication means and the users uses the selection indication means to make selection indications of user interface components. A method of the communication device comprises registering a selection indication, determining the position of the selection indication, identifying a user interface component associated with the position, sending a BCC send signal through the selection indication means comprising a first information associated with the identified user interface component, receiving a BCC response from a personal communication device, comprising a second information associated with the identified user interface component and initiating an action based on the second information.
