Hordozóikon

Hordozóikon is a Hungarian term that translates to "carrier icon" or "bearer icon." It refers to a graphical symbol used to represent a specific type of data or information that is being transmitted or carried by a particular medium or system. This concept is often encountered in telecommunications, computing, and digital broadcasting.

In essence, a hordozóikon visually signifies the format or nature of the content being delivered. For example, in older mobile phone interfaces, different icons might have represented an SMS message, a MMS message, or a voice mail. These icons served as quick visual cues for users to understand the type of communication they were receiving. Similarly, in digital television, a hordozóikon could indicate whether a program is being broadcast in standard definition or high definition, or if it includes subtitles or multiple audio tracks.

The purpose of a hordozóikon is to enhance user experience by providing immediate recognition of data types without requiring users to delve into technical details. It simplifies navigation and interaction with digital content and services. The design of these icons is typically standardized within a particular platform or system to ensure consistency and ease of understanding across different applications and devices. Their effectiveness relies on clear, intuitive visual representation that is easily distinguishable from other icons.
