Abstract

In one embodiment, a virtual room-based user interface suited for use on a “small screen” is provided that organizes representations of devices in a virtual room into a sequence, allows a user to cycle through the representations of devices in the sequence so only a single one is selected at any given time, and individually control the device corresponding to a selected representation using a designated control region separate from the representation of the selected device.
