Abstract

In this paper we describe our research on unified media experience for the end-users. The research focused on unified mobile media player supporting different media types with one unified UI structure and design for all media types. The created UI structure and design was based on our earlier study of finding an optimal information architecture model for mobile multimedia devices. Unified mobile media player demo was then implemented and validated in Finland and Hong Kong, and after analyzing the validation findings the UI structure and design were updated. Our research findings show that there are similarities between different media types, and it is possible to create unified UI structure and design, but also some media type specific restrictions exists.
