Abstract
A machine can be configured to provide icon animation based on an activity detected by a device. The configured machine animates an icon displayed on a screen by detecting a current activity in which a user of the machine is engaged. The detecting of the current activity may be based on context data generated by a set of sensors within the machine. The machine selects an icon from a first set of icons based on the current activity of the user. Furthermore, the machine causes the selected icon from the first set of icons to be displayed with a visibly moving highlight on the screen, resulting in the screen displaying the selected icon within a second set of icons on the screen. The visibly moving highlight may be applied to at least the selected icon but fewer than all icons in the displayed second set of icons.
