An interface device (IDF) is a hardware component or system of
components that allows a human being to interact with a computer, a telephone
system, or other electronic information system. The term is often encountered in
the mobile communication industry where designers are challenged to build the
proper combination of portability, capability, and ease of use into the interface
device. The overall set of characteristics provided by an interface device is often
referred to as the user interface (and, for computers - at least, in more academic
discussions - the human-computer interface or HCI ). Today's desktop and notebook
computers have what has come to be called a graphical user interface ( GUI ) to
distinguish it from earlier, more limited interfaces such as the command line
interface ( CLI ).
If you are creating content for a human receiver, you need at least a general
understanding of the type or types of interface devices that the your audience may
be using. The Extensible Markup Language ( XML ) is designed to allow Web or other
content to be created independently of the type of interface device that may be
used. An individual style sheet designed for specific interface device types can be
created using the Extensible Stylesheet Language ( XSL ). Then, when a user
requests a page, that user's interface device type can be recognized and the
appropriate style sheet used to format the page that is sent. Harmonia has
developed a User Interface Markup Language (UIML) that facilitates this process.
Interfacing Devices
Keypad or Keyboard
The Keypad is used for entering the password, authorized person can change the
password using an external interfacing peripheral devices such as EEPROM. And
further microcontroller interfacing GSM modem can be used for sending an alert
SMS to authorized person regarding unauthorized attempt if any, made to operate
the door with the wrong password.
