This is especially true in the context of developing countries where iDTV is a promise to cope with the digital divide. This technical report reviews the state of the art of physical artefacts of interaction with iDTV. In addition it presents a gesture based interaction model for iDTV that could inform the design of a new interaction language based on gesture and physical artefacts of interaction with iDTV. } }
