User Interaction

Samsung devices support user interaction using a variety of input devices. Since users mainly interact with a TV or a display device from a distance, Web applications must support interaction through external input devices.

The following input devices are supported on Samsung devices:

  • Remote Control
    The user most commonly interacts with the TV or display devices using a remote control.

  • Mouse
    The user can interact with the TV or display devices using a connected mouse.

  • Keyboard/IME
    The user can interact with the TV or display devices using a connected keyboard or a virtual keyboard (IME).

Note

The Web applications for Samsung TV and display devices do not support hardware key event handling using the tizenhwkey event, unlike mobile and wearable Web applications.
