APPLICATION EXTENSIBILITY FOR SMART DEVICE CONTROL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240264724 titled 'APPLICATION EXTENSIBILITY FOR SMART DEVICE CONTROL
The abstract describes a method for extending the functionality of an application on an electronic device by using a device trait specification associated with a smart device to generate an application extension template. This template defines the layout of a graphical user interface page and binds device traits to the application.
- Device trait specification used to generate application extension template
- Template defines layout of graphical user interface page
- Binds device traits to the application
- Application extension generated based on populated template
- Extension provided to the application for display on the device
- Graphical user interface page displayed with defined layout and elements bound to the layout
- Smart device controlled based on device traits
Potential Applications: - Enhancing user experience on smart devices - Customizing applications based on device traits - Improving control and interaction with smart devices
Problems Solved: - Lack of personalized user experience on smart devices - Difficulty in adapting applications to different device traits - Limited control options for smart devices
Benefits: - Enhanced user interface customization - Improved device control based on specific traits - Tailored user experience for smart device users
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced User Interface Customization for Smart Devices" This technology could be used in various commercial applications such as: - Mobile app development for smart devices - IoT device control interfaces - Smart home automation systems
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve user interaction with smart devices?
- This technology allows for personalized user experiences based on device traits, enhancing control and customization options.
2. What are the potential implications of this technology for the future of smart device applications?
- This technology could lead to more tailored and efficient applications for smart devices, improving user satisfaction and usability.
Original Abstract Submitted
features described herein pertain to extending the functionality of an application executing on an electronic device. a device trait specification associated with a smart device can be used to generate an application extension template for defining a layout of a graphical user interface page of the application and binding at least one device trait of the set of device traits to the application. an application extension can be generated based on the application extension template being populated with layout defining values and binding values. the application extension can be provided to the application. the application extension can cause the graphical user interface page of the application to be displayed on a display of the electronic device with the defined layout and elements bound to the layout and configured to cause the smart device to be controlled based on the device traits.
