Abstract
A database device generates a personalized remote user interface corresponding to a user. The database device discovers devices in a network and receives device information and user information from the devices. The database device generates a profile based on the device information and the user information. Using the profile, the database device generates a personalized remote user interface. After the personalized remote user interface is sent to a rendering device, the personalized remote user interface displays a remote user interface specific to the user.
Claims22
A method of generating a personalized remote user interface comprising:
- a. receiving device information and user information into a database device;
- b. generating a profile by analyzing the device information and the user information;
- c. generating a personalized remote user interface based on the profile;
- and
- d. sending the personalized remote user interface to a rendering device.
A network of devices comprising:
- a. a source device for communicating a remote user interface command;
- b. a database device for generating a personalized remote user interface;
- c. a rendering device for rendering the personalized remote user interface;
- and
- d. a network for operatively coupling the source device and the rendering device.
A system programmed in a controller in a device comprising:
- a. a discovery module for discovering devices;
- b. a profile generation module for generating a profile from information received form discovered devices;
- c. a personalized remote user interface generation module for generating a personalized remote user interface using the profile;
- and
- d. a providing module for providing the personalized RUI to a rendering device.
A database device comprising:
- a. a memory for storing an application, the application for:
