REMOTE CONTROLLER, DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR SETTING KEYS OF THE REMOTE CONTROLLER, AND METHODS THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18152479 titled 'REMOTE CONTROLLER, DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR SETTING KEYS OF THE REMOTE CONTROLLER, AND METHODS THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display apparatus that includes a first communicator connected to a remote controller, a second communicator connected to an external device, a display, a memory, and a processor. The apparatus is designed to control the display based on a UI display command for key setting of the remote controller received from the external device. It displays a UI screen with a touchpad image and keys of the remote controller, and allows the user to move keys onto the touchpad image through the external device. The apparatus then transmits key information and the moved position of each key to the remote controller.

  • The display apparatus includes a first communicator connected to a remote controller and a second communicator connected to an external device.
  • It has a display, memory, and processor to control the display based on a UI display command for key setting of the remote controller received from the external device.
  • The display shows a UI screen with a touchpad image and keys of the remote controller.
  • The user can move keys onto the touchpad image through the external device.
  • The apparatus transmits key information and the moved position of each key to the remote controller.

Potential Applications

  • This display apparatus can be used in various electronic devices that require remote control functionality, such as televisions, set-top boxes, and gaming consoles.
  • It can enhance the user experience by providing a more intuitive and interactive way to control the remote controller.

Problems Solved

  • Traditional remote controllers can be complex and difficult to navigate, especially for users who are not familiar with the device.
  • This display apparatus simplifies the remote control interface by allowing users to customize the key settings through a UI screen and easily move keys onto a touchpad image.

Benefits

  • The display apparatus provides a more user-friendly and customizable remote control experience.
  • It allows users to easily set and adjust key settings according to their preferences.
  • The touchpad image provides a visual representation of the remote controller, making it easier for users to understand and operate.
