NVUI Framework: Natural View User Interface Framework for Consistent and Intuitive Appliance Control

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel user interface framework for controlling appliances in smart spaces based on the natural look of UI on physical appliances. When a user selects a specific target appliance to control, the proposed architecture and procedures provide NVUI (Natural View User Interface) on a user's mobile device to maximize user's a priori familiarity with the user interface. We present a concept behind NVUI and how it can be generated, implemented and deployed in smart spaces.
