Real-Time Intelligent UI Adaptation via Micro-Behavior Analysis
A modular browser extension + backend system that detects user micro-behaviors and adapts web interfaces in real time using rule-driven intelligence.
AdaptiveWeb is an intelligent UI adaptation layer that observes user micro-behaviors (scrolling, hovering, cursor hesitation, dwell time) and dynamically adjusts web interfaces to reduce cognitive load and improve navigation efficiency.
Unlike traditional personalization tools, AdaptiveWeb:
- Works without user configuration
- Operates non-intrusively
- Adapts interfaces in real time
- Uses rule-based intent inference, not invasive tracking
- Detects user intent from behavior signals
- Applies contextual UI adaptations
- Supports client-only mode and rule-driven backend mode
- Designed for high performance & privacy
Highlights content the user is actively reading.
- Trigger: Hover > 1500 ms
- Effect: Soft highlight with fade-out
- Goal: Visual confirmation of focus
Displays a contextual summary when users scroll back.
- Trigger: Scroll down β quick scroll up
- Effect: Floating summary overlay
- Goal: Reduce re-reading effort
Condenses long content during fast scrolling.
- Trigger: Multiple rapid scrolls
- Effect: Paragraphs collapse with βRead moreβ
- Goal: Faster information scanning
Detects uncertainty and offers guidance.
- Trigger: Low cursor variance / circular movement
- Effect: Suggestion bubble near cursor
- Goal: Reduce friction & confusion
