The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used in the description and claims of the present invention, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context specifically indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term "and/or" as used herein refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms "comprises" and/or "comprising," when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.

And depending on the context, the term "if" may be interpreted to mean "when", "upon", "in response to" or "in response to determining" or "in response to detecting". Similarly, depending on the context, the phrase "if it is determined" or "if [ stated condition or event ] is detected" may be interpreted to mean "upon determining" or "in response to determining" or "upon detecting [ stated condition or event ]" or "in response to detecting [ stated condition or event ]".

Further, the following terms are explained and illustrated in the present application.

The term "web TV" is the original TV content broadcast over the world Wide Web. The main webpage television distributors are YouTube, myspace, newgroups, blip.

"network television" (also known as internet television, online television) is a digital distribution of television content delivered over the internet. Web tv, which is a short program or video created by various companies and individuals, should not be confused with web tv, which is an emerging internet technology standard used by television broadcasters, and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), which is an emerging internet technology standard. Internet television is a general term that refers to the delivery of television programs and other video content over the internet by video streaming technology, typically used by large traditional television broadcasters. But not to the technology used to deliver the content (see internet protocol television).

"internet protocol television" (IPTV) refers to a system that uses the internet protocol suite to deliver television services over a packet-switched network, such as the internet, rather than via traditional terrestrial, satellite signal, and cable formats. IPTV services can be grouped into three major groups: live television, with or without interactivity related to the current television program; time-shifted television: program rewarding (rebroadcasting a television program hours or days ago), rebroadcasting (playing the current television program from the beginning); and Video On Demand (VOD): a video directory is browsed, which directory is independent of television programming. IPTV differs significantly from internet television in that it has a continuous standardization process (e.g., european telecommunications standards institute) and advantageous deployment schemes for consumer telecommunications networks that provide high-speed access to end-user locations via set-top boxes or other client devices.

"smart tv" sometimes referred to as hybrid tv describes the trend of integrating internet and web2.0 and above functionality in a tv or set-top box, as well as the convergence of computer part functionality and these tv/set-top box technologies. Compared with the traditional television receiver and the set-top box, the method focuses more on online interactive media, internet television, set-top box content and on-demand streaming media, and focuses less on or improves the traditional broadcast media.

A "television" is a telecommunications medium, device (or apparatus) or series of related devices, programs and/or transmission equipment for transmitting and receiving monochrome (black and white) or color motion pictures, with or without accompanying sound. Television is most commonly used to display broadcast television signals. Broadcast television systems typically travel by wire or radio over designated channels in the 54-890MHz band. A visual display device without a tuner should be referred to as a video monitor rather than a television. Televisions differ from other monitors or displays in the distance a user maintains from the television while viewing media, and televisions have tuners or other circuitry for receiving broadcast television signals.

"cable television" refers to a system for delivering television programming to subscribers via coaxial cable, either as Radio Frequency (RF) signals or as optical pulse signals via fiber optic cable. This is in contrast to conventional broadcast television (terrestrial television) in which the television signal is transmitted over the air by radio waves and received by a television antenna on the television. The term "channel" or "television channel" as used in this application may be a physical channel or a virtual channel, which are both paths for a television station or a television network to transmit programs. The physical channels in analog television have a certain amount of bandwidth, typically 6, 7 or 8MHz, occupying a predetermined channel frequency. In cable or satellite television, a virtual channel is representative of the data stream of a particular television media provider (e.g., television station such as CDS, TNT, HBO, etc.).

The term "satellite television" refers to television programming transmitted via a communications satellite and received via an outdoor antenna (typically a parabolic dish, commonly referred to as a satellite dish), which in home applications may be an external set-top box or a satellite tuner module built into the television receiver.

The term "live television" as used in this application refers to television production broadcast in real time or substantially synchronized with the time of occurrence of an event.

The term "video on demand" (VOD) as used in this application refers to systems and processes that allow a user to select and view/listen to video or audio content on demand. The VOD system may stream the content so that it is viewed in real time or downloaded to a storage medium for later review.

A "blog" (also known as a "weblog") is a web site or portion of a web site that is supplemented with new content from time to time. Blogs are typically maintained by individuals, such as by periodically adding comments, activity descriptions or other material such as pictures, videos, and the like. These contents are usually displayed in reverse chronological order.

"blog service" refers to a service that publishes blogs, which may be time-stamped by private or multiple users.

The term "social networking service" is a service provider that establishes an online community in which members have the same interest and/or activity, or are interested in learning about the interests and activities of others. Most social networking services are web-based, providing users with a variety of interactive means, such as email and instant messaging services.

The term "social network" refers to a web-based social network.

The terms "instant messaging" and "instant messaging" refer to a form of real-time text communication between two or more people, typically based on text input.

"Internet search engine" refers to a web search engine designed to search information on the world Wide Web and FTP servers. Search results are typically displayed in a result list, referred to as a SERPS or "search engine results page". The information may include web pages, images, information, and other types of files. Some search engines also collect data available in a database or open directory. Web search engines, when operated, store much of the web page information and then retrieve it from the HTML itself. These web pages are retrieved by a web crawler (sometimes referred to as a web spider, an automated web browser that tracks each link on the web site). The content of each page is then analyzed to determine how to index (e.g., from the title, heading, or special fields called meta-tagsTo fetch a word). Data relating to the web pages is stored in an index database for future queries. Some search engines (e.g., ***) ^TM ) Storing all or part of the content of the source page (called the cache) and information about the web page, other search engines (e.g. AltaVista) ^TM ) Each word of each page found is stored.

The term "electronic address" refers to any reachable address, including telephone numbers, instant messaging processes, email addresses, global resource locators ("URLs"), universal resource identifiers ("URIs"), formal addresses ("AORs"), electronic aliases in databases (e.g., addresses), and combinations thereof.

The terms "online community," "electronic community," or "virtual community" refer to a group of people who communicate primarily over a computer network, rather than face-to-face, with the motivation for social, professional, educational, or other purposes. In interaction, a variety of media forms may be used, including Wikipedia, blogs, chat rooms, internet forums, instant messaging, email, and other forms of electronic media. Many forms of media are used in social software, either alone or in combination, including text-based chat rooms and forums that use voice, video text or avatars.

The term "computer-readable medium" as used in this application refers to any tangible storage and/or transmission medium that participates in providing execution instructions to a processor. Such a medium may take many forms, including but not limited to, non-volatile media, and transmission media. Non-volatile media includes NVRAM, magnetic or optical disks, and the like. Volatile media includes dynamic memory, such as main memory. Common forms of computer-readable media include a floppy disk, a flexible disk, hard disk, magnetic tape, or any other magnetic medium, magneto-optical medium, optical disk, any other optical medium, punch cards, paper tape, any other physical medium with patterns of holes, a RAM (random access memory), a PROM (programmable read only memory), and EPROM (erasable programmable read only memory), a FLASH-EPROM, a solid state medium such as a memory card, any other memory chip or cartridge, a carrier wave as described hereinafter, or any other medium from which a computer can read. A digital file attachment to an e-mail or other self-contained information archive or set of archives is considered a distribution medium that corresponds to a tangible storage medium. When the computer readable medium is configured as a database, it should be understood that the database may be any type of database, such as relational, hierarchical, object-oriented, and/or the like. Accordingly, the present application is considered to include a tangible storage medium or distribution medium and prior art-recognized equivalents and subsequent development media in which the software implementations of the present application reside.

As used herein, the term "media" in "multimedia" refers to content in one of a set of different content formats. Multimedia may include, but is not limited to, one or more text, audio, still picture, animation, video, or interactive content formats.

The term "screen" as used in this application refers to a physical structure containing one or more hardware components that enable a device to display a user interface and/or receive user input. The screen may include any combination of gesture capture regions, touch display screens, and/or configurable regions. The device may embed one or more actual screens in its hardware. However, the screen may also contain peripheral devices that are connected to or disconnected from the device. In some instances, multiple external devices may be connected on a device. For example, another screen with a remote control unit may be connected to the smart tv.

The term "display screen" refers to a portion of one or more screens for displaying computer output content to a user. The display screens may be single screen display screens or multi-screen display screens (referred to as composite display screens). A single physical screen may contain multiple display screens that are managed as separate logical display screens. Thus, different content may be displayed on separate display screens, albeit in a certain portion of the same physical screen.

The term "gesture" refers to a user behavior that expresses an intended idea, action, meaning, effort, and/or result. User actions include operating a device (e.g., turning the device on or off, changing the device's orientation, moving a trackball or scroll wheel, etc.), movement of a body part relative to the device, movement of an implement or tool relative to the device, audio input, etc. The gestures may act directly on the device (e.g., on a screen) or interact with the device through the device.

The term "gesture capture" refers to the sensing or detection of an entity and/or type of user gesture. Gesture capture may occur in one or more regions of the screen. The gesture area may or may not be located on the display screen, referred to as a touch display screen, referred to as a gesture capture area.

The term "remote control" refers to a component of an electronic device (most commonly a television receiver, DVD player, and/or home theater system) that is generally capable of wirelessly controlling the device within a short line of sight. The remote control typically uses infrared and/or Radio Frequency (RF) signals, and may include WiFi, wireless USB, bluetooth ^TM Connections, motion sensor enabled functions, and/or voice control. Touch screen remote controls are hand-held remote controls, replacing most of the physical built-in hard keys in a typical remote control with a touch screen user interface.

Smart Television (TV) environment:

reference is made to some embodiments of the smart tv 100 shown in fig. 1A and 1B. The smart tv 100 may be used for entertainment, business applications, social interactions, content creation and/or consumption, and/or further include one or more other devices for organizing and controlling communications with the smart tv 100. It can therefore be appreciated that smart tv can be used to enhance the user interaction experience, whether at home or at the workplace.

In some instances, the smart tv 100 may be configured to receive and understand various user and/or device inputs. For example, the user may interact with the smart tv 100 through one or more physical or electronic controls, which may include buttons, switches, touch screens/zones (e.g., capacitive touch screens, resistive touch screens, etc.), and/or other controls associated with the smart tv 100. In some cases, the smart television 100 may include one or more interactive controls. Additionally or alternatively, the one or more controls may be associated with a remote control. The remote controller may communicate with the smart tv 100 through wired and/or wireless signals. It will thus be appreciated that the remote control may communicate via Radio Frequency (RF), infrared (IR) and/or a specific wireless communication protocol (e.g., bluetooth) ^TM Wi-Fi, etc.). In some cases, the physical or electronic controls described above may be configured (e.g., programmed) to suit the user's preferences.

Alternatively, a smart phone, tablet, computer, notebook, netbook, and other smart devices may be used to control the smart tv 100. For example, the smart tv 100 is controlled using an application running on the smart device. The application program may provide the user with various smart tv 100 controls in an intuitive User Interface (UI) on a screen associated with the smart tv 100 through configuration. The user's option input on the UI may be configured to control the smart device 100 via the application program using one or more communication functions associated with the smart device.

The smart television 100 may be configured to receive input through a variety of input devices including, but in no way limited to, video, audio, radio, light, tactile, and combinations thereof. Furthermore, these input devices may be configured to enable the smart tv 100 to see and recognize user gestures and react. For example, the user may speak with the smart tv 100 in a conversational manner. The smart television 100 receives and understands voice commands like intelligent personal assistants and voice-controlled navigation applications (such as Siri for apple, skyvi for android, robin, iris, and others) that are smart devices.

In addition, the smart tv 100 may be configured as a communication device that can establish a network connection 104 and connect to a telephone network operated by a telephone company using a telephone line 120 in a number of different ways, including wired 108 or wireless 112, cellular network 116. These connections 104 enable the smart tv 100 to access one or more communication networks. A communication network encompasses any known communication medium or collection of communication media and may use any type of protocol to communicate information or signals between endpoints. The communication network may include wired and/or wireless communication technologies. The internet is an example of a communication network 132 that, together with many computers, computer networks, and other communication devices around the world, forms an Internet Protocol (IP) network, interconnected by many telephone systems and other means.

In some instances, the smart tv 100 may be equipped with a variety of communication tools. Various communication tools may allow the smart tv 100 to communicate over a Local Area Network (LAN) 124, a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) 128, and other networks 132. These networks may act as redundant connections to ensure network access. In other words, if one connection is interrupted, the smart tv 100 will re-establish and/or maintain the network connection 104 using another connection path. Moreover, the smart television 100 also uses these network connections 104 to send and receive information, as well as Electronic Program Guide (EPG) 136 interactions, receive software updates 140, contact customer services 144 (e.g., to obtain help or service, etc.), and/or access remotely stored digital media libraries 148. In addition, these connections also allow the smart tv 100 to make phone calls, send and/or receive email messages, send and/or receive text messages (e.g., email and instant messages), surf the web using an internet search engine, blog through a blog service, and connect/interact with an online community maintained by a social media website and/or social networking service (e.g., facebook, twitter, linkedIn, pinterest, *** plus, mySpace, etc.). When these network connections 104 are used in combination with other components of the smart tv 100 (described in more detail below), we can also hold video teleconferences, electronic conferences, and other types of communications on the smart tv 100. The smart tv 100 may capture and store images and sounds using a connected camera, microphone, and other sensors.

Additionally or alternatively, the smart tv 100 may create and save screenshots of media, images and data displayed on an associated screen of the smart tv 100.

As shown in fig. 1B, the smart tv 100 may interact with other electronic devices 168 via wired 108 and/or wireless 112 connections. As described herein, the components of the smart tv 100 allow the device 100 to connect to the device 168, including, but not limited to, a DVD player 168a, a blu-ray player 168b, a portable digital media device 168c, a smart phone 168d, a tablet 168e, a personal computer 168f, an external cable box 168g, a keyboard 168h, a pointing device 168i, a printer 168j, a game controller and/or gamepad 168k, a satellite dish 168l, an external display device 168m, and other Universal Serial Buses (USB), a Local Area Network (LAN), bluetooth ^TM A High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) component device, and/or a wireless device. When connected to the external cable box 168g or the satellite dish 168l, the smart tv 100 may access more media content.

Furthermore, as described in detail below, the smart tv 100 may receive digital and/or analog signal broadcasts of a tv station. It may operate as one or more of cable television, internet protocol television, satellite television, web television, and/or smart television. The smart television 100 may also be configured to control and interact with other intelligent components, such as a security system 172, a door entry/controller 176, a remote video camera 180, a lighting system 184, a thermostat 188, a refrigerator 192, and other devices.

The smart television:

fig. 2 illustrates the components of the smart tv 100. As shown in fig. 2, the smart tv 100 may be supported by a movable base or support 204 that is connected to a frame 208. The frame 208 surrounds the edges of the display screen 212 without obscuring its front face. The display screen 212 may comprise a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), plasma screen, light Emitting Diode (LED) screen, or other type of screen.

The smart television 100 may include an integrated speaker 216 and at least one microphone 220. In some examples, a first region of the frame 208 includes a horizontal gesture capture region 224 and a second region includes a vertical gesture capture region 228. The gesture capture areas 224 and 228 contain areas that can receive input by recognizing user gestures, and in some examples, the user need not actually touch the surface of the screen 212 of the smart tv 100 at all. The gesture capture regions 224 and 228 do not contain pixels that may perform a display function or capability.

In some examples, one or more image capture devices 232 (e.g., cameras) are added to capture still and/or video images. The image capture device 232 may contain or be connected to other elements, such as a flash or other light source 236 and a ranging device 240 to assist in focusing of the image capture device. In addition, the smart tv 100 may also identify the respective users using the microphone 220, the gesture capture areas 224 and 228, the image capture device 232, and the ranging device 240. Additionally or alternatively, the smart tv 100 may learn and remember preferences of individual users. In some instances, learning and memory (e.g., recognizing and recalling stored information) may be associated with user recognition.

In some examples, an infrared transmitter and receiver 244 may be further configured to connect to the smart tv 100 via a remote control device (not shown) or other infrared device. Additionally or alternatively, the remote control device may transmit wireless signals by other means besides radio frequency, light and/or infrared.

In some examples, the audio jack 248 is hidden behind a foldable or removable panel. Audio jack 248 contains a pointed round cannula (TRS) connector, for example, to allow a user to use headphones, or other external audio device.

In some examples, the smart tv 100 also includes several buttons 252. For example, fig. 2 shows buttons 252 on the top of the smart tv 100, which may be located elsewhere. As shown, the smart tv 100 includes six buttons 252 (from a to f) that can be configured for a particular input. For example, the first button 252 may be configured as an on/off button for controlling the system power of the entire smart tv 100. The buttons 252 may be configured together or separately to control various aspects of the smart tv 100. Some non-limiting examples include, but are not limited to, overall system volume, brightness, image capture device, microphone, and video conferencing hold/end. Instead of separate buttons, two buttons may be combined into one fluctuation button. Such a waving button may be useful in certain situations, such as controlling a function of volume or brightness.

In some instances, one or more buttons 252 may be used to support different user commands. For example, the duration of a normal press is typically less than 1 second, similar to a quick input. The duration of the medium press down is generally 1 second or more but not more than 12 seconds. The duration of the long press is typically 12 seconds or more. This function of the button is generally dependent on the application activated on the smart tv 100. For example, in a video conferencing application, a normal, medium, or long press may mean ending the video conference, increasing or decreasing the volume, increasing the input response speed, and switching the microphone on or off, depending on the particular button. Depending on the particular button, a normal, medium, or long press may also control image capture device 232 to increase or decrease zoom, take a picture, or record a video.

The port interface 352 comprises a peripheral or general purpose port that provides support for the device 100 to connect to other devices or components (e.g., docking stations) that may or may not provide additional or different functionality to the device 100 after interconnection. In addition to supporting the exchange of communication signals between device 100 and other devices or components, docking port 136 and/or port interface 352 may provide power to device 100 or to output power from device 100. The docking port 352 also contains an intelligent component that includes a docking module that controls communication or other interaction between the smart television 100 and the connected devices or components. The docking module may interact with software applications to remotely control other devices or components (e.g., media centers, media players, and computer systems).

The smart tv 100 may also include a memory 308 for the processor 364 to execute application programming or instructions and for temporary or long-term storage of program instructions and/or data. For example, the memory 308 may include RAM, DRAM, SDRAM, or other solid state memory. In some examples, a data store 312 is added. Similar to the memory 308, the data storage 312 may include one or more solid-state memories. In some examples, data storage 312 may include a hard disk drive or other random access memory.

For example, hardware buttons 358 may be used for certain control operations. One or more image capture interfaces/devices 340 (e.g., cameras) may be added to capture still and/or video images. In some examples, the image capture interface/device 340 may include a scanner, code reader, or motion sensor. The image capture interface/device 340 may contain or be connected to other elements, such as a flash or other light source. The image capture interface/device 340 may interact with a user ID module 350 that helps identify the identity of the user of the smart tv 100.

The smart tv 100 may also include a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver 336. According to some examples of the invention, the GPS receiver 336 may further include a GPS module to provide absolute positioning information to other components of the smart tv 100. It will therefore be appreciated that other satellite positioning system receivers may be used instead of or in addition to GPS.

The components of the smart television 100 may draw power through the main power source and/or the power control module 360. For example, the power control module 360 includes a battery, an ac-to-dc converter, power control logic, and/or ports for interconnecting the smart tv 100 to an external power source.

Firmware and software:

FIG. 4 shows one example of software system components and modules 400. Software system 400 may contain one or more layers including, but not limited to, an operating system kernel 404, one or more libraries 408, an application framework 412, and one or more applications 416. One or more layers 404-416 may communicate with each other to perform the functions of the smart tv 100.

The Operating System (OS) kernel 404 contains the primary functions that allow software to interact with the hardware associated with the smart tv 100. The kernel 404 may comprise a series of software to manage computer hardware resources and provide services to other computer programs or software code. Operating system kernel 404 is a primary component of the operating system and acts as a man-in-the-middle between application programs and data processing done using hardware components. Portions of operating system kernel 404 may include one or more device drivers 420. The device driver 420 may be any code in an operating system to assist in operating or controlling devices or hardware connected to or associated with the smart television. The driver 420 may contain code to operate video, audio, and/or other multimedia components of the smart television 100. Examples of drivers include display screens, cameras, flash, binder (IPC), keyboards, wiFi, and audio drivers.

Libraries 408 may include, but are not limited to, one or more operating system runtime libraries 424, a television system Hypertext Application Language (HAL) library 428, and/or a data services library 432. Operating system runtime library 424 may contain code required by operating system kernel 404 and other operating system functions performed during the operation of software system 400. The library may contain code that is initiated during the operation of software system 400.

The tv service hypertext application language 428 may contain code required by the tv service, which is executed by the application framework 412 or the application 416. The tv service HAL library 428 is specific to the smart tv 100 operation controlling the different smart tv functions. Furthermore, the tv services HAL library 428 may also consist of other types of application languages than the hypertext application language or instances of different code types or code formats.

The data services library 432 may contain one or more components or code to execute components that implement data service functionality. Data service functions may be performed in the application framework 412 and/or the application layer 416. FIG. 6 shows examples of data service functions and component types that may be included.

The application framework 412 may contain a general abstraction for providing functionality that may be selected by one or more applications 416 to provide specific application functionality or software for those applications. Thus, the framework 412 may include one or more different services or other applications that are accessible through the application 416 to provide general functionality on two or more applications. Such functionality includes, for example, management of one or more windows or panels, planes, activities, content, and resources. The application framework 412 may include, but is not limited to, one or more television services 434, a television services framework 440, television resources 444, and user interface components 448.

The television services framework 440 may provide additional abstractions for different television services. The television services framework 440 allows for regular access and operation of services related to television functions. The television services 436 are general services provided in a television services framework 440, which television services framework 440 may be accessed through applications in the application layer 416. The television resources 444 provide code for accessing television resources including any type of stored content, video, audio, or other functionality provided by the smart television 100. Television resources 444, television services 436, and television services framework 440 serve to perform various television functions accompanying smart television 100.

The one or more user interface components 448 may provide general components for the display of the smart tv 100. The user interface component 448 can be accessed as a generic component through various applications provided by the application framework 412. The user interface component 448 may be accessed to provide services for panels and silos as described in figure 5.

The application layer 416 contains and executes applications associated with the smart tv 100. The application layer 416 may include, but is not limited to, one or more live television applications 452, video-on-demand applications 456, media center applications 460, application center applications 464, and user interface applications 468. The live television application 452 may provide live television through different signal sources. For example, the live television application 452 may provide television using input from cable television, radio broadcast, satellite service, or other types of live television services. The live television application 452 may then display a multimedia presentation or a video and audio presentation of the live television signal on the display screen of the smart television 100.

The video-on-demand application 456 may provide video from different storage sources. Unlike the live television application 452, the video on demand 456 provides a video display from some stored source. The video-on-demand source may be associated with a user or a smart tv or some other type of service. For example, video on demand 456 may be provided from an iTunes library stored in cloud technology, from local hard disk storage containing stored video programs, or some other source.

Media center application 460 may provide applications needed for various media presentations. For example, media center 460 may service the display of images or audio other than live television or video on demand but still accessible to the user. The media center 460 may obtain media displayed on the smart tv 100 by accessing different sources.

The application center 464 may provide, store, and use applications. The application may be a game, productivity application or some other application commonly associated with computer systems or other devices but which may run in a smart tv. The application center 464 may obtain these applications from different sources, store them in local memory, and then execute them for the user on the smart tv 100.

The user interface application 468 may provide services for a particular user interface associated with the smart television 100. These user interfaces may include the silo and panels described in figure 5. An example of user interface software 500 is shown in FIG. 5. Here, the application framework 412 includes one or more code components that help control user interface events, while one or more applications in the application layer 416 affect the use of the user interface of the smart tv 100. Application framework 412 may include a silo switch controller 504 and/or input event transmitter 508. There may be more or fewer code components in the application framework 412 than shown in FIG. 5. Silo switch controller 504 contains code and languages that manage the switch between one or more silos. The silo can be a vertical user interface function on the intelligent television and contains information available for users. Switch controller 504 may manage the switching between the two silos upon the occurrence of an event at the user interface. The input event transmitter 508 may receive event information for the user interface from the operating system and then transmit to the input event transmitter 508. Such event information may include button selections on a remote control or television or other type of user interface input. The input event sender may then send these event information to the silo manager 532 or the panel manager 536 (depending on the event type). Silo switch controller 504 may interact with silo manager 532 to affect changes to the silo.

Application framework 416 may contain user interface application 468 and/or silo application 512. The application framework 416 may include more or fewer user interface applications than are necessary to control the smart tv 100 than shown in fig. 5. The user interface application may include a silo manager 532, a panel controller 536, and one or more panels 516-528. Silo manager 532 manages the display and/or functionality of the silo. Silo manager 532 may receive or transmit information from silo switch controller 504 or input event transmitter 508 to alter the displayed silo and/or to determine the type of input received by the silo.

The panel manager 536 may display panels in the user interface to manage switching between the panels or to affect user interface inputs received in the panels. Accordingly, the panel manager 536 may communicate with different user interface panels, such as the global panel 516, the volume panel 520, the settings panel 524, and/or the notification panel 528. The panel manager 536 may display these types of panels depending on the input from the input event transmitter 508. The global panel 516 may contain information related to the home screen or the user's highest level information. The volume panel 520 displays information related to audio volume controls or other volume settings. The information displayed by the settings panel 524 may relate to audio or video settings or other settable characteristics of the smart tv 100. The notification panel 528 may provide information related to user notifications. These notifications may be related to information such as video on demand displays, favorites, currently available programs, etc., or other information. The content of the notification is related to the media or some type of setting or operation or the smart tv 100. The panel manager 536 may communicate with the panel controller 552 of the silo application 512.

The panel controller 552 may control some of the several types described above. Thus, the panel controller 552 may communicate with the top panel application 540, the application panel 544, and/or the bottom panel 548. The several panels are different from each other when displayed in the user interface of the smart tv 100. Thus, the panel controls may set the panels 516-528 to a certain display orientation (determined by the top panel application 540, the application panel 544, or the bottom panel application 548) depending on the system configuration or the type of display currently in use.

FIG. 6 is an example of a data service 432 and data management operations. Data management 600 may include one or more code components associated with different types of data. For example, there may be several code components in data service 432 that may perform and correlate video on demand, electronic program guide, or media data. The data services 432 may have more or fewer component types than shown in fig. 6. Each different type of data may contain a data model 604-612. These data models determine what information the data service stores and how it will store. Thus, the data model can manage any data, regardless of where they come from and how they will be received and managed in the smart tv system. Thus, the

data models

604, 608, and/or 612 may provide the ability to translate or affect the translation of data from one form to another form that may be used by the smart television 100.

Various data services (video on demand, electronic program guide, media) have a

data sub-service

620, 624, and/or 628 for communicating with one or more internal and/or external content providers 616. The data subservices 620, 624, and 628 communicate with the content provider 616 to obtain data, which is then stored in the

databases

632, 636, and 640. The sub-services 620, 624, and 628 may communicate with the content provider, initiating or enabling one or more source plug-

ins

644, 648, and 652 to communicate with the content provider. The source plug-

ins

644, 648, and 652 differ for each content provider 616. Thus, if the data has multiple content sources, each data subservice 620, 624, and 628 may decide to then enable or launch a different source plug-in 644, 648, and/or 652. In addition, the content provider 616 may also provide information to the resource arbiter 656 and/or the thumbnail cache manager 660. The resource arbiter 656 may communicate with resources 664 external to the data services 432. Thus, the resource arbitrator 656 may communicate with cloud storage, network storage, or other types of external storage in the resources 664. The information will then be provided to the data subservices 620, 624, 628 by the content provider module 616. Similarly, the thumbnail cache manager contains thumbnail information from one of the data subservices 620, 624, 628 and stores the information in the thumbnail database 666. Moreover, the thumbnail cache manager 660 may also extract or retrieve information from the thumbnail database 666 to provide to one of the data subservices 620, 624, 628.

Fig. 7 shows an exemplary content aggregation structure 1300. The structure may include a user interface and

content aggregation layer

1304 and 1308. User interface layer 1304 may include a television application 1312, a media player 1316, and applications 1320. The television application 1312 enables a viewer to view channels received via an appropriate transmission medium, such as cable, satellite, and/or the internet. The media player 1316 may view other types of media received over appropriate transmission media, such as the internet. The applications 1320 include other television-related (pre-installed) applications such as content viewing, content searching, device viewing and setup algorithms, and may also cooperate with the media player 1316 to provide information to the viewer.

The content source layer 1308 contains, as data services, a content source service 1328, a content aggregation service 1332, and a content presentation service 1336. The content source service 1328 manages content source investigators including local and/or network file systems, digital network device managers (which discover handheld or non-handheld devices (e.g., digital media servers, players, renderers, controllers, printers, uploaders, downloaders, network connectivity functions and interoperability units) via known techniques such as multicast universal plug and play or UPnP discovery techniques, and retrieve, parse and encrypt device descriptors for each device discovered, notify content source services of the newly discovered device, and provide information about previously discovered devices, such as indexes), internet protocol television or IPTV, digital television or DTV (including high definition and enhanced television), third party services (such as the services referenced above), and applications (such as android applications).

The content source investigator may track content sources, typically configured as binary. The content source service 1328 may launch a content source investigator and maintain an open and persistent communication channel. The communication includes a query or command and response pair. The content aggregation service 1332 manages content metadata obtainers, such as video, audio, and/or image metadata obtainers. The content presentation service 1336 provides content indexing interfaces, such as an android application interface and a digital device interface.

The content source service 1328 may send communications 1344 to and receive from the content aggregation service 1332. The communication contains notifications regarding the latest and deleted digital devices and/or content and search queries and results. The content aggregation service 1332 may send communications 1348 to and receive from the content presentation service 1336, including device and/or content lookup notifications, consultation and notification of content of interest, and search queries and results.

When a search is performed, particularly when the user is searching or browsing for content, content presentation service 1336 may receive a user request from user interface layer 1300, opening a socket and sending the request to content aggregation service 1332. The content aggregation service 1332 first returns results from the local database 1340. Local database 1340 contains indexes or data models and indexed metadata. The content source service 1328 further issues search and browse requests for all content source investigators and other data management systems. The results will be sent to the content aggregation service 1332, which updates the database 1340 to reflect the further search results and provides the original content aggregation database search results and the data update results reflecting the more content source service search results to the content presentation service 1336 through the previously opened socket. The content presentation service 1336 then provides the results to one or more components of the user interface layer 1300 for presentation to the viewer. When the search phase is over (e.g., the search phase is terminated by a user or user action), the user interface layer 1300 will disconnect the jack. As shown, media may be provided from a content aggregation service 1332 directly to a media player 1316 for display to a user.

As in fig. 8, video content (e.g., television programs, videos, televisions, etc.) is displayed on the front side of screen 212. The window 1100 obscures a portion of the screen 212 and the remainder of the displayed video content, and may also cause the portion of the screen 212 displaying the video content to move up or down and/or compress as the height of the window 1100 changes, and it may also be that the window 1100 is superimposed over the video content such that the change in height of the window 1100 does not affect the display position of the video content.

Window 1100 can include one or more items of information, such as: a front panel navigation bar associated with the currently displayed image and/or content, detailed information (e.g., title, date/time, audio/visual indicators, ratings and genres, etc.), a hotkey bar, an information entry bar associated with a browse request and/or a search request.

In some examples, window 1100 contains appropriate information related to the content (e.g., name, duration, and/or remaining content viewing time), setup information, television or system control information, application (active) icons (e.g., pre-installed and/or downloaded applications), application center, media center, web browser, input source information.

Fig. 9 is an illustrative pictorial example of a user interface for a content/silo selector. The avatar 1400 includes a content source selector 1404. Content source selector 1404 includes icons for one or more silos 1408-1424.

Content source selector 1404 may include two or more icons 1408-1424 representing different silos. For example, icons 1408 through 1420 represent different content application silos. The different content application silos may comprise a live tv silo, represented by icon 1408. A live television silo is a logical representation of a broadcast television signal application that may provide television content to a user of the television 100. A Video On Demand (VOD) silo is represented by the icon 1412. The VOD silo provides a path for access to video or other types of media that may be selected and provided to the user on demand. The media center silo is represented by icon 1416. The media center silo contains applications that provide images and/or movies developed or stored by users. The media center provides a way for the user to store his media using the smart tv 100. The application silo is represented by icon 1420. Application silos provide games and other user applications that can be accessed and used on television, and the like. The input source silo 1424 may be any type of device or other storage mechanism that is connected to the television 100 through an input port or other electrical connection, such as: HDMI and the like, or an input interface aggregate silo.

FIG. 10 illustrates an exemplary Graphical User Interface (GUI) in a purchase class application, such as a home GUI display of a user under an aggregation learning application. The home GUI may display two areas on the display screen, a content display area 160 and a main navigation area 170.

The main navigation area 170 is configured to instruct the content display area 160 to display a plurality of options, and the recommendation position in each option displays classification information associated with a virtual product. Each of the options bars consists of an icon and text, and the options bars can hide the text and only display the corresponding icon, i.e. the reduced form of the main navigation area. In some examples, the primary navigation area 170 is displayed in the edge area of the screen, such as: the left edge. The user may also select to be displayed on the right edge, or to move to the lower side and change the layout orientation in the system setup.

The content display area 160 includes three parts, a status display area 161, a priority recommendation area 163, and an additional recommendation area 164, wherein the product information associated with the first virtual product, which may be a recommendation picture or recommendation place of a learning class course, such as a "blessing hearing" picture or a video carousel window, is presented in the priority recommendation area 163 and the additional recommendation area 164.

The status display section 161 provides the user with basic information indicating the network environment and the external environment in which the smart tv 100 is located. Such as displaying a combination of one or more of the user's login status, network connection status, signal source, local time, local weather, city in which the user is located.

The priority recommendation field 163 is used to provide an interface for searching for information associated with a second virtual good, such as: the member fusion interface shown as "open member" may also provide a function button for downloading the application program of the mobile phone board and a function button for providing the user with the information of the commodities associated with the first virtual commodity, such as advertisements and/or tutorials cooperating with the third-party learning platform, in the aggregation learning application program.

The additional recommendation field 164 is used to provide the user with the resources in the resource list at the recommendation sites by the user's personal habits and content classification.

In some examples, the primary navigation area 170 shadows the location of the user-selected option bar; the content display area 160 displays the location of the user-selected tab in focus 150. Although a combination of shading and boxes are used in this description, other methods or configurations may be used to select and/or identify an icon. For example, in addition to shading and boxes, adjustment 1720, etc. icons and the background of text may be included, thus making the color, shading, or tint different. Alternatively or additionally, the shadow 140 and focus 150 may contain enlarged or enlarged icons and text.

The user can simply move the focus to a certain option bar for viewing; the selection of the tab at the location of the focus may also be made. Once the selection is made, another GUI is provided to the user for interacting with the selected content.

As shown in fig. 11, the main navigation area 170 specifically includes a plurality of options, and some or all of the options set classification information based on the user range of the virtual commodity applicable population, such as a preschool column, a high school column, a primary school column, a professional column, and/or an elderly column; categorizing information, such as one or more of a personal records field, a search instruction entry field, a fine recommendations field, a hobbies field, and/or a language learning field, is set as aggregated content based on common habits of the users. In this embodiment, the main navigation bar 170 displays seven tabs at a time, and the remaining tabs are shown in a rolling manner.

The option bar of the main navigation area 170 is composed of icons and text, and the option bar may hide the text and only display the corresponding icons. The two display modes respectively correspond to two states of the main navigation area 170, namely, a simple state when only the icon is displayed by hiding the text.

A personal record column is shown with "my" 171 for displaying content related to the user, such as a personal collection, in the content display area 160. A search instruction entry field, such as "search" 172, is used to instruct the user to enter relevant command keywords accordingly for searching. A pick recommendation column, shown as "pick" 173, for recommending to the user, in the content display area, the item information of the hot spot or the latest first virtual item corresponding to "pick" 173, which may be recommended based on the user click, the browsing duration, or the update time; the scholars tab is used to indicate the relevant content displayed in the content display area 160 according to the scholars selected by the user. Illustratively, the scholars' options bar is a "preschool" option bar 174, a "elementary school" option bar 175, a "junior high school" option bar 176, and a "high school" option bar 177.

Fig. 12 is a content selection area view of the present example. The status display area 161 includes a member center tab 1611, a network connection tab 1612, a signal source tab 1613, a time tab 1614, a weather tab 1615, a city tab 1616, and a navigation tab 1617 arranged to the right, which are arranged in sequence from the left, wherein the navigation tab is used to display the user's focus selection in the main navigation area 170.

The preferred recommendation field 163 includes a learning record option field 1631 for recording the historical lesson contents learned by the user and providing a recommendation list based on the historical learning contents; a member fusion interface 1632 for guiding the user to search the payment details page; a mobile phone APP download option bar 1633 for providing a user with a two-dimensional code for downloading a mobile phone application; carousel window 1634; a carousel thumbnail window 1635 and a main recommendation field 1636.

The commodity recommending area 2143 transmits a payment order request based on a payment tag that the user selects payment in the payment detail sheet, and receives VIP opening information fed back in response to the request, thereby displaying commodity information associated with the first virtual commodity on the commodity recommending area, presetting the commodity information before opening the member and displaying corresponding prompt information, such as "the following hot courses can be viewed after opening the member", in order to improve user experience.

And the second interface which is outstanding from the display state of other second interfaces triggers a link address based on an instruction input by a user on the second interface for linking to the payment detail page, and the video detail page is directly returned from the payment detail page in the display state in response to the instruction input, so that the user can select the first interface on the video detail page and recall the interface fusion page.

For easy path search, the interface fuse page is backed from the payment details page, linked to the interface fuse page based on the user re-selecting the role tab, and different text or/and picture formats are displayed on the payment details page to highlight the payment details information, which is not described herein again.

In some examples, the status display area 161 is horizontally disposed within the content display area 160 and above the content display area 160. Used for displaying the current operation state and information prompt.

In order to improve the user experience, the status display area 161, the priority recommendation area 163, and the additional recommendation area 164 are integrally designed. I.e., an immersive state display area is provided to keep the overall interface style of the content display area 160 consistent.

In some examples, the status display area may or may not be displayed. Generally, the display is better, and the operating state can be provided.

When the focus is not in the area of the status display area 161, each of the tabs of the status display area 161 displays only the corresponding icon, and the spacing distance between adjacent icons is minimized. When the tab of the status display area 161 acquires focus, the selected tab shows icons and text.

The member center tab 1611 is used to obtain a login status of the user. After the user acquires the focus, if the user is in the logged-in state, displaying the head portrait of the user, the user name and the residual time of the member; and if the user is in the non-login state, displaying a login tab and a registration tab for the user to login or register the account.

The network connection tab 1612 is used to display a network connection status. When the focus is not acquired, only icons representing connection or non-connection are displayed; after the user acquires the focus, if the user is in a connected state, displaying an icon representing the connection and a network name; if the connection is not established, an icon indicating the connection is not established and a word "unregistered" is displayed.

The signal source tab 1613 is used to display the signal source name.

The time tab 1614 displays the local time, which if in china is beijing time. When the focus is not acquired, the specific time is displayed, and after the user acquires the focus, the specific time and date are displayed. When the user selects the focus, the system modification time can be entered, and the time of day can also be set to be 24-hour system or 12-hour system.

Weather tab 1615 is used to display the selected city weather. When the focus is not acquired, a weather icon is displayed together with the lowest air temperature and the highest air temperature of the day. After the focus is obtained, specific weather information and/or air quality information, such as an icon representing cloudiness, a word of "cloudy sunny", a minimum air temperature and a maximum air temperature of the day, and the content of PM2.5 can be displayed.

City tab 1616 is used to display the region. After the focus is obtained, provinces and cities are displayed.

When the focus is located in the state display area 161, the focus may be moved in the horizontal direction for multiple times, and the user may enter the corresponding content page or setting page by selecting any icon in the state display area 161, which is not described herein. The icons in the status display area 161 are not limited to the icon styles given in the above embodiments, and the arrangement sequence between the tabs located on the left side in the status display area 161 in the above embodiments may be set optionally according to the preference of the user, and in this embodiment, only one of the sequences is shown, which is not considered as a limitation of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application also includes situations where the icon styles are different and the ordering manner is different.

The display contents of the priority recommendation region 163 and the additional recommendation region 164 are determined by the position of the focus of the main navigation region 170. The system defaults to when the user enters the main page of the get-all application, the focus is on the "pick" tab of the main navigation area 170. The user may bring the focus within content display area 160 by clicking on a remote control, touching the screen, or by gestures, etc.

In some embodiments, the focus is moved to the item recommendation position 1641 in the additional recommendation region based on a selection command input by the user in the content display region 160, the first interface is displayed in the item recommendation region 1641a in response to a trigger instruction input to the item recommendation position 1641a, the video detail page is called in response to a trigger instruction input to the first interface, at least two second search interfaces are displayed on the video detail page, and the payment detail page is linked to as a simple search path in response to a selection input by the user to the second interface.

As shown in fig. 19, when the user moves the focus once to the right by clicking a remote controller, a touch screen, or a gesture, the text of the main navigation area is hidden, and only the corresponding icon is displayed, indicating that the "chosen" icon is in a shadow state. Meanwhile, the focus of the content display area 160 falls on the learning record option bar 1631 of the priority recommendation area 163 by default.

When the main navigation area 170 hides the text, its width decreases and the content display area 160 as a whole is translated to the left.

In some examples, the user may move the first tab member center tab 1611 of the focus entry status display area up or down to the "open VIP" tab 1632 or to the carousel area.

The user may move the focus to view the content displayed at the different recommendation sites in the priority recommendation region 163. When the focus is horizontally moved to the right at the recommended bit in the main recommendation area 1636, the positions of the learning record option column 1631, the open member option column 1632, and the mobile APP download option column 1633 remain unchanged on the display screen, while the positions of the carousel window 1634, the carousel thumbnail window 1635, and the main recommendation area 1636 on the display screen panel disappear as the right recommended bit appears and the left display portion disappears.

The recommendation bits in the additional recommendation area 164 are divided into a double-line display and a single-line display, and when the double-line display is performed, the focus moves left and right in one line, and simultaneously moves the other line left and right.

In this example, when the user moves the focus horizontally to the last recommended bit of the main recommendation area to the right, the focus cannot move to the right any more, and if the user still triggers an instruction to move the focus to the right, a prompt effect of moving the recommended bit of the main recommendation area to the end occurs. Such as: the recommendation bits displayed in the main recommendation area move rightwards for a very short distance and quickly return to the original position so as to prompt the user to reach the last recommendation bit.

The user moves the focus down into the additional recommendation field 164, each recommendation bit being arranged in a horizontal direction. When the number of the recommendation bits 1642a displayed in a first row in the sub-recommendation bit area 1642 is less than 9, displaying in a single line; and when the number of the display units is more than 9, the display units are displayed in double rows, and the number of the display units is not more than 16 at most. Each recommendation slot 1642a may display a thumbnail or poster of the recommended course.

In some instances, when focus is not on the determined recommendation bits 1642a, the textual name of the recommended course is displayed below the range of each recommendation bit 1642 a.

When the focus stays at the determined recommendation position 1641a, detailed information of the content of the recommendation position, such as the duration of a course, a teacher who gives a lecture, a subject of the course and the like, can be checked. The position of the title area 1642 remains unchanged on the display screen while the focus is moved in the horizontal direction to view the recommendation bit 1641 a. The dynamic effect of the focus moving horizontally between one or two rows of recommendation bits 1641a in the additional recommendation area 164 is the same as the effect of the focus moving between recommendation bits 1641a in the main recommendation area in the above embodiment, and is not described herein again.

When the focus moves only in the content display area 160, i.e. when the user is browsing the content display area 160, the focus can be moved along the horizontal direction for a plurality of times, and when the focus moves to the left row of icons in the content display area 160, the focus moves to the left again, and then enters the main navigation area 170; when the focus moves to the last icon in the content display area 160, the focus cannot continue to move any further to the right and a dynamic cue, such as a flick, is given to reach the border.

FIG. 20 is a GUI in which the user moves the focus downward multiple times in the additional recommendations field 164. The main navigation area 170 displays only icons, the additional recommendation area 164 moves upward as a whole to display a plurality of rows of recommendation positions in the content display area 160, and the status display area 161 and the priority recommendation area 163 are hidden when being pushed up to the topmost end of the display screen; when the focus moves to a recommendation bit positioned in the fourth column of the first row under the 'guess you like', the remote controller inputs an instruction to trigger the recommendation bit, the recommendation bit can stretch to the periphery of the recommendation bit to a preset position, a first interface is displayed in the recommendation bit, and the first interface is input with a trigger instruction to fuse the interface.

As described above, when the user enters the homepage of the hakura application, the focus is located under the "selection" option column of the main navigation area 170, and the specific implementation of the focus movement position change and the state description of the interface may be combined with the description of other embodiments, which is not described herein again. However, it should be understood that the present application may be embodied in many ways beyond the specific details set forth herein.

As shown in FIG. 21A, the present embodiment provides an example of a method 2100 for implementing an application display by moving focus after entering a purchasing application (e.g., hakura). Although fig. 19-20 show a general order of execution for method 2100, method 2100 may contain more or fewer steps, or the order of the steps may be arranged in a different order than method 2100 shown in fig. 21A. The method 2100 is a set of computer-executable instructions executable by a computer system or processor, encoded or stored on a computer-readable medium, or embodied as circuitry in an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) or Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) that can perform the method. In the following, we will explain the method 2100 in connection with the systems, components, modules, data structures, user interfaces, etc. described in connection with fig. 1-20.

Figure 21A conceptually illustrates a process 2100 of some embodiments in which a user moves focus to a content display region. As shown, process 2100 first begins by receiving (at 2110) an instruction to trigger entry into an hayfood application interface (home page). The user may receive the command through a remote control button, a gesture, or a set of user interactions touching the screen, or through some variation.

The process then determines (at 2120) to display a user interface on the GUI that includes a main navigation area and a content navigation area, with the focus default position on the "pick" menu bar. When the user selects to move focus to the right (at 2130), the focus moves from the "pick" option bar to the content display area, which may be first positioned at the "Member center" of the status bar; or the position is positioned on the recommendation position of the first column and the first row in the priority recommendation area, such as a 'learning record' option bar; the content display area is entirely shifted to the left with the focus on the preferential civil area, and when the user selects to move the focus upward as shown in fig. 19, the "learning record" option field is switched to the "member center" on the GUI.

The process then detects (at 2140) a move right command entered on the GUI, and the device moves the focus from "learning record" to the item recommendation position on the content recommendation field in response to the command to switch the focus downward, on which item information associated with the first virtual item is displayed, such as: when the focus is positioned in the carousel window, loading and playing the trial video in the carousel window; the goods recommendation bit may be triggered for a request package carrying a download link in response to an entered instruction and may draw another GUI. And the recommendation positions and the carousel windows are presented in the preferred recommendation area and the additional recommendation area below the preferred recommendation area, so that the user can browse and view the recommended commodity information in a sliding or waterfall flow type manner in the horizontal and vertical directions.

As shown in fig. 21B, apparatus 2200 detects a selection command input by a user to move a focus in a content display area, positions the focus to a carousel window in a preferred recommendation area (2210), in response to a trigger command input to the carousel window (2220), stretches the carousel window to overlay a home page GUI to play a video in full screen, and continues to display a first interface during full screen play until the carousel window shrinks in response to an input return command, and the shrunk carousel window reverts to a default position and cancels the first interface; or in response to a trigger instruction input to the first interface, link to another GUI, referring to fig. 12 and 15, which replaces the display state of the full-screen play window.

The device, in response to a triggering instruction (2230) input to the first interface during full screen play, links to a video detail GUI, the GUI being displayed based on full screen GUI hiding, a second search control being rendered on the video detail page, the second search control displaying merchandise information associated with a second virtual merchandise, the merchandise information including a second virtual merchandise name and character information describing a user scope applicable to the second virtual merchandise, and with reference to fig. 16, the second virtual merchandise may be used to activate a service for the video, such as: the user opens the member after paying the virtual currency to the service provider, the video corresponding to the member has no viewing time limit, namely the payment viewing service is activated, and on the contrary, the member has no viewing time limit when not opened, namely the trial viewing service is activated.

The apparatus positions focus to a second search control in response to a selection command entered in the video details GUI, detects a trigger instruction entered on the second interface (2240), transitions to a payment details GUI in response to the trigger instruction, and renders a plurality of payment tags in a line direction on the payment details GUI including implicitly or displaying merchandise information (e.g., VIP or member) associated with the second virtual merchandise information for the user to view a payment price for payment of the second virtual merchandise based on short range or long range communication with other devices.

As shown in fig. 21C, the member fusion interface is located in the left column of the carousel window, the device detects a selection command for input in the preferred recommendation field, moves focus from the carousel window to the member fusion interface (2310), and links from the home page GUI to the payment fusion GUI (2320) in response to a trigger instruction input to the member fusion interface, the payment fusion GUI including a navigation field displayed with a plurality of options and a payment detail field, and payment detail information displayed in the payment detail field corresponding to some or all of the options is different, as shown in fig. 13 and 14.
