Abstract :
This work introduces API/TVD, a tool that quickly and simply generates interactive prototypes/applications for Digital TV. API TVD is designed for TV producers, as it requires no programming language knowledge of any type. API TVD incorporates graphic templates for its interface mechanism based on criteria of usability and user friendliness. The following presents examples and demonstrations from the development phase, lines of code, and an evaluation of its usability.
