Open user interface standards - towards coherent, task-oriented and scalabe user interfaces in home environments
Gottfried Zimmermann · 2007
This paper looks at some existing products for remote user interfaces for home appliances, with regard to their coherence, task orientation and scalability. Although some positive trends can be observed, these systems are based on proprietary, closed technologies. The Universal Remote Console framework (ISO/IEC 24752) and the task model description standard (CEA-2018) are described as possible solutions for providing full access to home appliances for everybody, in any modality and interaction style, in a coherent, task oriented and scalable fashion.
