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.
Unlike a map, however, the animated mechanism constantly shows the current
whereabouts, continually expands the view of the immediate neighborhood,
and preserves a view of places left behind.
The puck represents the users’ point of focus, by surrounding 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 wedge-shaped regions.They correspond to the
directional controls (up/down, left/right) on the remote control.
In this way users can navigate through the menu hierarchy to arrive at the
control they wish to adjust.
Pressing a valid button on the remote control shifts focus from the current
ball to the next one connected by a pipe in that direction.
Balls represent a branch of the menu hierarchy.
All menu items are represented by balls. Each ball is identified with an
identifying text label.
When items (balls) of a menu level are more numerous than can fit
comfortably on the TV display, only a portion of the items are shown as balls
along the pipe.Those omitted are indicated by a cluster of balls which
indicates that there are ‘more’.
Pipes connect balls together and show the path the user can traverse through
the menu structure. Pipes represent individual branches of the menu
hierarchy.
