There are similarities between the UK and Indian end-users in terms of availability of interactive technologies, their skills in interacting with technology and desire for better interactive services, there are also differences in the type of services demanded by end-users in the two countries and the usage scenarios and context of the end-user technology. For example, touch and gesture based interaction techniques are being explored both within the UK and India as they potentially empower the user to perform eyes-free interaction. However, the context of the interaction may be very different in both these countries. The context in the UK may be to enable simple tasks when the visual channel is occupied (like setting the waypoint on a GPS when walking down a flight of stairs), while in India the context may be to empower the illiterate in performing basic interactive tasks without the need to read (like using gesture based systems for text-to-speech interaction). These similarities and differences make it worthwhile for the UK and Indian researchers to collaborate.The aim of this network is to unify past efforts and develop an agenda of activities within the context of Interactive Technologies for the end-user and to encourage the development of research collaboration that is internationally outstanding and economically relevant while being real and meaningful to both countries. A driving goal of the Network is to bring together various distinct collaborations in related research topics under a unified network and harness the strength of these individual collaborations to create a synergy which no single institution will be able to achieve on its own.The proposed network will consider three inter-related themes that will contribute to the development of Interactive Technologies for the end-user. The themes build on the network members' strengths in designing, implementing and evaluating interactive technologies for various applications and services. The three themes are - Interactive Technology Enablers, Interactive Services and Applications, and Sustainable Interaction Designs.

英国与印度最终用户在交互式技术的可用性，与技术互动的技能以及对更好的交互式服务的渴望方面有相似之处，两国最终用户要求的服务类型以及最终用户技术的使用情况和上下文都存在差异。例如，在英国和印度，正在探索基于触摸和手势的互动技术，因为它们有可能使用户能够执行无眼的互动。但是，在这两个国家中，互动的背景可能都大不相同。英国的上下文可能是在占据视觉通道时启用简单的任务（例如，在沿着楼梯飞行时设置GPS上的路点），而在印度，上下文可能是为了在无需阅读的情况下执行基本的交互式任务（例如使用基于手势的系统进行基于基于手势的系统来进行语音到语音交互）的能力）。这些相似之处和差异使英国和印度研究人员值得合作。该网络的目的是统一过去的努力，并在交互式技术的背景下为最终用户提供一项活动议程，并鼓励在国际上具有杰出且经济相关的研究合作的发展，同时对两个国家都是真实和有意义的。该网络的一个驱动目标是将统一网络下的相关研究主题中的各种不同的合作汇集在一起​​，并利用这些个人合作的实力，以创造一种协同作用，没有一个机构将自己无法独立实现，该网络将考虑三个相关的主题，这些主题将有助于实验室的交互式技术的发展。这些主题基于网络成员在设计，实施和评估各种应用程序和服务的交互式技术方面的优势。这三个主题是 - 交互式技术推动者，交互式服务和应用程序以及可持续的互动设计。
