Paper Abstract:
|
Digital convergence effect is everywhere, for everyone and acessible by any device. This fact means that the user experience is richer, more sophisticated and also more complex. Designers have to be more flexible and handle a variety of interaction possibilities. Interaction design should be viewed as a fluid process that shapes different medias and devices to address user features. A richer user experience explores the users senses and modalities. The definition of modality used in Human-Computer Interaction, came from a definition that was previously used in Psychology, where human sensorial modalities are used, such as vision, hearing and touch. Thus many user interfaces can be defined by combining two or more input modalities (such as speech, touch, gestures, head movements and mouse) in coordination with the various outputs available in a multimedia system. This paper is concerned with the discussion of this how to design user interfaces to address multisensory issues. |
