Opis

This simple and manageable guide to user interface design is written for the professional in industry working on product development and the decision process. It presents guidelines for user interface design including a catalogue of input and output devices for electronic appliances, adding material on the design process, interaction design, advanced input, speech interfaces, evaluation, standards, the move from usability to pleasure and cultural differences. Each chapter stands alone, so the book can be used as a handbook. Experts in human factors working in industry and academia contributed the chapters, and extensive illustrations and examples demonstrate good user interface design.
