Embodiment Construction

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0040] An interface and computer-implemented method are described below. While the invention has been described in terms of specific illustrative embodiments, it should be understood that the embodiments described therein are by way of example only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention thereto.

[0041] The inventive interface is generally configured for use on any electronic device with a suitable display screen and minimal hardware. Therefore, it is generally possible to transfer the interface from one device to another without significant changes. In fact, the interface will generally adapt itself to the screen of the device on which it is used by taking into account parameters such as (but not limited to) size and resolution. Thus, by way of non-exhaustive list, the inventive interfaces and methods can be implemented on devices such as mobile and / or smart phones, portable game consoles, desktop and / or p...

Abstract

A contextual windows-based interface and a computer-implemented method for use with the contextual windows-based interface are provided. The interface consists of several generally adjacently disposed contextual windows wherein each contextual window generally leads to an application and / or data or can contain further levels of related contextual windows, each of them leading to other applications and / or data. The method associated with the interface allows for the contextual windows to interact with each other in order to provide additional functionalities. Hence, the method provides for the selection of contextual windows and for the creation of interactional data based on the combination of the data related to the selected contextual windows. The interactional data can be used to update the content of one or more contextual windows and / or can be transmitted to a remote server, via a communication network, for further processing.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This patent application claims priority to commonly assigned Canadian Patent Application No. 2,565,756 filed October 26, 2006 with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to computer interfaces and methods for such computer interfaces. More particularly, the present invention relates to contextual windows-based interfaces and methods for such contextual windows-based interfaces. Background technique [0004] In recent years, we have seen an explosion in the number of electronic devices of all kinds. Moreover, with the development of electronic technology, image processing technology and display screen technology, more and more electronic devices have electronic screens of different sizes and resolutions. [0005] Accordingly, electronic display screens currently use a variety of sizes and resolutions, and their display areas range from a few square...
