The menu system

Pipes, balls and a puck

The hierarchy of menus and controls is represented by an animated visual mechanism of pipes, balls and a puck.The animated mechanism constantly shows the current whereabouts and continually expands the view of the immediate neighbourhood.

The puck surrounds the ball indicating the user’s current position in the menu hierarchy.

The puck is always present when the menu system is displayed.

The puck is divided into 4 parts.They correspond to the directional controls (up/down, left/right) on the remote control.The arrows on the cursor indicate which directions to choose.

In this way users can navigate through the menu hierarchy to the control they wish to adjust.

When items are more numerous than can fit comfortably on the TV display, only a portion are shown.Those omitted are indicated by a cluster of balls which indicates that there are ‘more’ items.

Direct selection and control

Menu items are controlled as soon as they are selected by the puck. Only a few items require confirmation with the OK key.

List controls

A list control is used to select one or more items from a list of options. For instance, the Picture format option list with 4:3, Movie Expand 14:9, etc. Press the right key to move the puck into the list. At least one item is the current value and is highlighted.

Moving the puck up or down with the up/down key causes the list to move down or up.
