Research in Media Informatics on Advanced User Interfaces

Everyday we are faced with diverse technologies that we either actively/knowingly or passively/unknowingly use. Furthermore, interaction has become more than just pressing buttons. Nowadays Digital Systems can recognize our mobile devices that we are carrying with us, our voice and gestures. They have become assistive devices rather than pure computing machines.

With this change we do not only have new possibilities for new and innovative interactions, but also our sense for interaction and design – especially the combination or interplay of both – is different. Now we want to have systems that do not only perform well, but also look great. These demands require thorough Research in Media Informatics on Advanced User Interfaces…

As a matter of this, the book covers Advanced User Interfaces from different perspectives. It presents concrete examples of applications, methods and frameworks as well as discussions about latest arising topics in the field of user experience design and interaction design.
