A 10-foot User Interface is a user interface for a TV set or a similary sized screen. The "10 foot" is an approximate distance from the viewer to the set, but can be shorter or longer, depending on the size of the screen. Such interfaces have large menus and buttons, that are also designed to be navigated by a handheld remote control. TV program guides, Apple's Front Row, and the Microsoft Windows Media Center interface are examples of such an interface.
Windows Media Center interfaces and tools can be created using the MCE SDK[1].
