SXSW2009 - Designing for Gestural UI
- Session starting... talking about initial design for Motorola phones and illiterate users.by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:36:10 PM
- Physical location, functions plus spacial/visual memory are coreby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:38:16 PM
- Starts to get tricky when you have limited controls and need them to work in different contexts - eg. ATM with 6 buttons and 20 screensby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:39:05 PM
- In many cases people will learn gestures and set them to memoryby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:39:46 PM
- Mobile technology is really pushing gesture based UI and interactionsby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:41:03 PM
- Many control schemes are extremely complicated - high function but limited ways to control - eg. Nokia N59 is a mini computer powered by keypadby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:41:55 PM
- Radical simplification is one way to solve the problem but it cuts out a lot of goodnessby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:42:31 PM
- There is a desire to naturalize interactions - mimic the physical worldby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:42:49 PM
- It's all about sensors and sensor tech - they make gesture based tech possibleby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:43:12 PM
- Motion, sense, touch, etc.by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:43:19 PM
- Wii, MS Surface, iPhone are all loaded with tons of sensors and work way beyond the simple button interfaceby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:43:48 PM
- Language and Affordancesby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:44:00 PM
- Language - way we communicate with devices - PC point and click interface. What is the new language we are creating for gestural interfaces?by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:45:01 PM
- Affordances - what are the affordances we are going to create in a gestural world in order to allow us to understand how we interact with something in a non physical world...by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:45:53 PM
- We are used to the affordances of the PC world - we know what happens when we click a pulldown or push a button or checkboxby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:46:30 PM
- Language of the PC - we have point and click mouse and a keyboard. These limited physical inputs as well as standard UI elements allow us to create rich interactionsby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:47:50 PM
- How do you translate that into a flick of a fingerby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:48:12 PM
- How do devices understand what we want to achieve when using a deviceby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:48:27 PM
- declarative vs implicitby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:48:39 PM
- Sensors help devices understand how they should react to our behaviours/motions/expectations naturallyby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:49:21 PM
- In designing for the traditional PC we have tried to copy fairly directly from the physical world - knobs, buttons, clicks, etc.by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:50:12 PM
- Explicit declaration of how we want a device to behaveby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:50:53 PM
- Still using gestural interfaces as a means to control - eg. Wii gamesby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:51:16 PM
- We are still telling the device what to do... just not using a keyboardby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:51:44 PM
- Is there a way for a device to sense what we are doing and anticipate an action without a human telling it what to doby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:52:14 PM
- By placing yourself in a car and having the car sense that you do not have the seatbelt on, the "device" becomes smarter and augments it's behaviourby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:54:42 PM
- Having devices respond to your actionsby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:54:59 PM
- Lots of excitement regarding sensors and possibilities right now.by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:57:03 PM
- The "shake shake" gesture is common place right now. Simple and easy to understand for people right now.by Andre at 3/14/2009 8:57:58 PM
- iPhone developers are utilizing sensors... eg. Urban Spoonby Andre at 3/14/2009 8:58:23 PM
- What is it about the UI that provides the affordance for interactions?by AdamSchwabe at 3/14/2009 9:01:21 PM
- Lots of room to invent new gestures that are comprehendable by "normal people"by Andre at 3/14/2009 9:01:36 PM
- Watching a video by g-speak right nowby Andre at 3/14/2009 9:02:10 PM
- Video is similar to "Minority Report" interfaceby Andre at 3/14/2009 9:02:32 PM
- Showing off Oblong g-speak, Minority Report-like UIby AdamSchwabe at 3/14/2009 9:02:34 PM
- Direct interaction with a room of screens controlled by hand and body movementsby Andre at 3/14/2009 9:03:07 PM
- [These kinds of interactions where your whole body is involved look exhausting]by AdamSchwabe at 3/14/2009 9:03:30 PM
- Showing collaborate control of the device - 2 sets of hands on one large screenby Andre at 3/14/2009 9:03:33 PM
- Would be interesting if you could control your TV/PVR/Digital home entertainment system with a system like this...by Andre at 3/14/2009 9:04:26 PM
- No affordances at all in g-speak.by AdamSchwabe at 3/14/2009 9:05:36 PM
- G-speak is a 3d gestural navigation system that allows for collaboration, 3d navigation, and an experience almost as cool as the power gloveby garrettgonzales via twitter at 3/14/2009 9:05:57 PM
- I'm fascinated by gestural interfaces but more often than not it looks like a technology in search of a purposeby andybudd via twitter at 3/14/2009 9:06:25 PM
- Gestures in the video are not sustainable on a consumer level - too complicated and overly dramatic at the momentby Andre at 3/14/2009 9:06:25 PM
- Showing Canesta, gesture-based television controls.by AdamSchwabe at 3/14/2009 9:07:42 PM
- [How are these interactions easier than pushing a damn button? Play/pause]by AdamSchwabe at 3/14/2009 9:08:14 PM
