THE IMPACT OF HCI ON SOCIETY, THE ECONOMY AND CULTURE What does HCI mean? HCI stands for Human Computer Interaction, one of the main focuses within HCI is the way humans' use computers. Studies and research are undertaken to explore how people use and interact with computers and how new designs would affect users future interaction. Also when creating a GUI you need to follow the Schneidermans Principles there are 8 altogether which are: 1. Strive for consistency. 2. Enable frequent users to use…

A BRIEF HISTORY OF HCI 13.1 Early Interfaces Memex (1945) . Vannevar Bush, 1945 [Bush, 1945b]. . Memex = “memory extender”. . Hypothetical design (never built) based on microfilm technology and mechanical levers integrated into a large desk. . Vision of document repository with links between documents. . “Trails” = chained sequence of links. . Personal annotations. Memex Chronology . Bush started to formulate Memex ideas in 1932 [Nyce and Kahn, 1991, page 42]. . Draft sent to FORTUNE…
effectiveness of human computer interaction - HCI - can be complex as it involves many influencing factors, some of which are determined on an emotional level (making it subjective rather than quantitative). The effectiveness of HCI relates to the usability of a computer system by a human. For a computer to be effective, HCI levels must be high. In simple terms, a computer that is difficult to use is not a good computer. Indicators of the effectiveness of HCI There are a number of basic indicators…
Introduction Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. It is related to a more general concept called mediated reality, in which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented) by a computer. As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one’s current perception of reality. By contrast, virtual…

2.2. Multimodal HCI systems The Multi-Modal Human-Computer Interaction will refer to the interaction of the virtual and the physical environment by making use of the natural modes of communication. These modes will involve the 5 human senses and will imply that the multi-model interaction will enable a more free and natural communication. Multi-Modal Human-Computer Interaction will refer to the virtual and physical environment by making use of the natural modes of communication. This will enable…
