Abstract

Cette invention concerne une interface utilisateur personnalisée (UI) pour télévision interactive à accès Internet pouvant comporter des zones de catégorie et de contenu personnalisées et une zone de contrôle personnel. Selon un mode de réalisation, l'interface personnalisée UI peut être agencée selon une configuration en L, au sein de laquelle des boutons fléchés ou une télécommande permettent de naviguer facilement. On pourra par exemple utiliser les flèches de déplacement vers le haut ou vers le bas pour naviguer entre les caractéristiques de la zone de contrôle personnel, et les flèches de déplacement vers la gauche ou vers la droite pour naviguer dans la zone de catégories personnalisée.
