VISUALIZATION OF APPLICATION CAPABILITIES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240126577 titled 'VISUALIZATION OF APPLICATION CAPABILITIES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a systematic mechanism for visualizing functions or capabilities of an application through user experience objects and templates.

  • User experience objects are generated for an application based on its definition.
  • Multiple user experience templates are identified for the application.
  • Information from the application definition is used to populate the user experience templates.
  • Users can review visualizations of the user experience objects to understand the application's capabilities and decide whether to install or open it.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in software development, user interface design, and product testing to enhance user experience and improve application usability.

Problems Solved

This technology helps users quickly understand the capabilities of an application, leading to informed decisions on whether to use it or not. It also aids developers in designing more user-friendly applications.

Benefits

- Improved user experience - Enhanced application usability - Informed decision-making for users - Streamlined software development process

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing User Experience through Application Visualization Technology"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to user experience visualization tools or methods in the field of software development or user interface design.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle complex applications with multiple functions?

The patent application does not specify how the system deals with applications that have a wide range of functions and capabilities. It would be interesting to know if there are limitations in visualizing complex applications.

Are there any privacy or security concerns related to the use of user experience objects?

The patent application does not address any potential privacy or security issues that may arise from the generation and review of user experience objects. It would be important to understand how user data is handled and protected in this process.


Original Abstract Submitted

a systematic mechanism for visualizing functions or capabilities that an application has. one or more user experience objects are generated corresponding to an application. an application definition is obtained for that application, and then multiple user experience templates are identified based on that application definition. information from the application definition is then used to populate at least one of the user experience templates to generate at least one object experience object. the user may then review visualizations of the user experience objects to determine the general capabilities of the application, and thereby determine whether to install or open the application, and how best to use the application.
