Abstract
A novel type of a user-friendly "man-to-TV set" interface has been designed for the new generation of digital TV sets with many hundreds of channels. It consists of an optimised remote-control device and a system of menus appearing on the TV screen. Response of potential users has been tested on the groups of students of different age and education, including seniors. Positive results have shown that the new TV control system can be used in practice.
