CE-HTML

CE-HTML [http://www.domoticspoint.com/archive/2006/02/26/ce-html-for-remote-user-interfaces-for-consumer-devices/ CE-HTML for remote user interfaces for consumer devices] is a subset language of common open internet languages such as Javascript 1.5, XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2. It is part of the CEA-2014 standard (also referred to as Web4CE [http://www2007.org/posters/poster1017.pdf Web4CE: Accessing Web-based Applications on Consumer Devices] ), defined within the Consumer Electronics Association [ [http://www.ce.org/Standards/browseByCommittee_2757.asp Consumer Electronics Association: CEA-2014] ] .

CE-HTML can both be used in-home as via the internet. Specifically, it targets Consumer Electronics (CE) devices. It allows the content creator to use the common and known languages in the web to define a user interface that can be controlled on a CE device. As such, it offers specific extensions for these devices such as e.g.:
* Multi-tap
* media (audio/video) playout
* operation via remote control (spatial navigation)
* client capability matching - to match the client capabilities to the user interfaces that the server offers
* user interface profiles for usage on CE devices such as a television (ie. font-size and screen layout tailored for larger distances)
