USER INTERFACES FOR DEVICE COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18605747 titled 'USER INTERFACES FOR DEVICE COMMUNICATIONS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system that displays a message when attempting to connect to external devices, and updates the display with an enhanced interface if the connection is successful within a certain time frame.
- The system indicates connection attempts to external devices.
- If the connection is successful before a set time limit, the display is upgraded to a better interface.
Key Features and Innovation
- Basic console user interface with connection indication.
- Enhanced interface update upon successful connection within a threshold time.
Potential Applications
The technology can be used in various electronic devices that require external connections, such as computers, smartphones, and gaming consoles.
Problems Solved
- Provides users with clear feedback on connection attempts.
- Enhances user experience by updating the interface upon successful connections.
Benefits
- Improves user interaction with devices.
- Reduces user frustration by providing timely feedback on connections.
Commercial Applications
- This technology can be applied to consumer electronics, improving user satisfaction and potentially increasing sales in competitive markets.
Prior Art
