Abstract
An intent driven interface allows a person to control a computer by stating an intended outcome rather than entering the sequence of tasks required to achieve the same outcome. Techniques that were originally developed as part of a universal access accelerator for individuals with disabilities are now being applied as convenience and productivity tools for accessing any computer based device, appliance or system. An intelligent universal serial bus (USB) Hub, called the iTASK Module, determines user intent independently of the input source or the system that is accessed. iTASK Modules can be interconnected to support multi-user collaboration and sharing of system resources without requiring any hardware or software changes to the accessed system.
