Abstract
A web interface method (300) incorporating a system for communicating between devices (10 and a method for communicating between devices (200) wherein a user interacts with objects (306) in an abstract space (302). Results of the interaction are interpreted in an abstract language (18) and then translated to a universal language (20) such that input devices (12, 14) are independent of the specific type of device (12, 14) with which they might be interacting. Communication of the universal language (20) can optionally be over the Internet (22).
Claims20
A method for interacting with a device, comprising:
- (a) providing an input at a first device;
- (b) recording the input in a first language;
- (c) converting the input into a second language
- (d) communicating said second language;
- (d) converting said second language into a third language;
- and
- (e) providing said third language to a second device.
A method for constructing an input method, comprising:
- defining an abstract space having at least one dimension;
- defining at least one object within said abstract space;
- and
- defining allowable actions within said abstract space.
A method for providing input to a device, comprising:
- moving through an abstract space.
