Patent ID: 8400436

Claim:
An intelligent interface means for a programmable electronic display device system, comprising: a statistical data recording software application program that generates real-time data representing a given situational current state of a real-time event or activity; an intelligent interface software application program that interfaces with said statistical data recording software application program and monitors said generated data representing said a given situational current state of said real-time event or activity thereby to detect status change thereof; an electronic display board means; a display board controller means; at least one computer workstation or terminal means; at least one digital data storage means for storing at least one recorded data source file(s) containing at least one data item(s); and a graphical user interface provided by said statistical data recording software application program which presents to an operator via said at least one computer workstation or at least one terminal means operative control means that enable said operator to operate at least said statistical data recording software application program and/or said intelligent interface software application program within at least a common-purpose graphical field thereby to record statistical data representing said real-time event or activity and/or to select and transmit a portion of said data item(s) compiled and presented by said intelligent interface software application program to at least one said display board controller means for display on at least one said electronic display board means; wherein said intelligent interface software application program, upon detecting said status change, identifies at least one said data item(s) selected from said at least one recorded data source file(s) that is relevant to said real-time data leading to said detected status change, automatically compiles said data item(s), and automatically presents said compiled data items to said operator within said graphical user interface for selection and transmittal to said display board controller for display on said electronic display board.
