  • Patent number: 9588635
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided that enable users to interact with displayed content. An extensible user interface (UI) model framework is provided that enables a user device to provide multiple content feedback mechanisms at the same time, such as touch, non-touch, motion, gestures, voice, etc. A user is enabled to choose a most comfortable way for the user to interact with the displayed content using the user device, and an indication of the interaction may be sent to a content provider. The content provider may provide next content for display based on the received feedback. The user device may enable the user to use one or more feedback mechanisms at any time, including a combination of feedback mechanisms. Additional interaction modules can be plugged in to enable any number of additional ways of interacting with displayed content on the user device.

A value of an incentive to be awarded to the user is determined based at least upon the time span and the indicated proportion of the area of the display screen. The value of the incentive may also take into account feedback provided by the user on the displayed content, as well as a number of interactions by the user with the displayed content. The incentive is awarded to the user.
