It used to be straightforward. Mouse and cursor everywhere. Same inputs. That’s changing. Just as the shape and nature of our screens are changing—our outputs— we’re now wrangling a whole diferent set of inputs too. Touch certainly the most popular alterative input method. Not just on our mobile screens... hands and fingers are coming to life on our desktops, too. As advertised, this workshop is about designing for touch. We’ve been dealing with touch on smartphones, and tablets are coming on strong. So sure, I’ll talk about guidelines for designing on phones and tablets. But perhaps more important, I’ll also talk about designing for touch on the desktop.

ULTIMATELY, IT MEANS THIS: All desktop designs have to be touch-friendly, not just mobile. But first...let’s begin at the beginning: With the basics, with first principles. I have an ugly truth for you, friends. To date, we’ve thought about web design as a visual pursuit. A feat of visual design, of information design. So we naturally approach our work in visual terms, we think in pixels. But when you add touch to the mix... we go beyond the visual... and to the physical. So we naturally approach our work in visual terms, we think in pixels. But when you add touch to the mix... we go beyond the visual... and to the physical. It’s not just how your pixels LOOK but how they FEEL It’s not just how your pixels look. But how they feel. How do your pixels feel in the hand? designing for TOUCH • Touchscreen layouts • Gestures Let’s go back just a few years. To the release of a revolutionary new phone. The thing worked in a wholly diferent way from what came before, but newcomers and technophiles alike were charmed by it. Industry observers called it intuitive, efcient, even fun. The new phone quickly became a status symbol, owned by a select few at first. As time went by, nearly everyone got one, and now we find its operation so natural that we can barely imagine phones working any other way. You guys know the revolutionary new gadget I’m talking about. Bell Telephone’s remarkable Push-Button phone. In time we’d call it TouchTone. The year was 1963. In retrospect, its layout seems so obvious. So familiar, no other design seems possible. But that wasn’t the case. ---- Bell researchers tested 16 diferent keypad variations, searching for the design that enabled the fastest, most reliable dialing. So familiar, no other design seems possible. But that wasn’t the case. ---- Bell researchers tested 16 diferent keypad variations, searching for the design that enabled the fastest, most reliable dialing. Bell Lab scientists brought customers into the laboratory. Telephone usability testing. They measured dialing speeds to fractions of a second. They asked callers about the comfort and feel of the keypads. They played with button tension and whether buttons should make a click sound when pressed. So they were certainly interested in the keypad’s visual layout BUT EVEN MORE CRUCIALLY... they were concerned with its feel, its ease of use by the human hand. The layout of the buttons had to be MORE than aesthetically pleasing; it had to be optimized for physical use. Fast forward to today, and we’re learning the same lessons all over again. You’re not “just”a visual designer. That means you’re not just a visual designer anymore. You’re an industrial designer. You’re also an industrial designer. Or at least your job now includes aspects of industrial design, the art of crafting a physical thing. Because when you design a touchscreen interface, you have real, honest ergonomics to consider. In a very real sense, you’re designing a physical device. Not literally. Virtual, flickering liquid crystals But because they’re explored by human hands— unlike desktop experiences to date— you’re designing how hands interact Been dealing with this on mobile for 5 years. Phones and tablets confront us with a blank slate. Invite us to impose our own interface, ANY INTERFACE. Because that interface requires touch, defines device in very physical way. Soldering circuit boards, molding plastic, diecast Real ergonomics: Again how does it feel in your hand? 15 49% 36% % htp://www.uxmaters.com/mt/archives/2013/02/how-do-users-really-hold-mobile-devices.php Basically three ways to hold a phone. [next] Steven Hoober did a field study, observed over 1300 people in the street tapping away at their phones. Big plurality, nearly half, were tapping with one hand, with their thumb. We switch between these grips often, very contextual. The most popular though is that one-handed grip. Gives us freedom to use the other hand. To write, to hold cofee, to juggle a baby. But I want to pause to look at that middle one, too, where we hold the phone in one hand and jab with the other. http://www.uxmatters.com/mt/archives/2013/02/how-do-users-really-hold-mobile-devices.php This picture shows a finger doing the tapping. Turns out that most of the time, when we use this hold and stab posture, it’s not actually the finger that does the work. Instead, Steven observed: 72% of the time people use the cradle grip, WE USE OUR THUMB. 75 % of phone interactions Add it up, and that means 75% of our phone interactions are these two grips. Three quarters of the time, WE TAP THE SCREEN WITH ONE THUMB. We often talk about how we’re designing for fingers... All thumbs. In reality, we’re designing for thumbs. As we’ll see, that truth cuts across other device types, too. Thumbs are awesome. But they have their limits. And this is it: the thumb-tapping hot zone. Fan-shaped comfort zone for thumb when held in right hand. Bottom of the screen opposite side of the thumb— left side for the right thumb— where tapping is easiest, where thumb naturally rests Obviously thumb can reach anywhere onscreen, but this is most comfortable zone. Important implications: That’s why iOS puts primary controls at bottom. Turns desktop convention on its head LEFT VS RIGHT Steven’s study found that two-thirds of the time, we tap the screen with the right hand. But very fluid about which hand we use. More important bit is top vs bottom. And look what’s NOT in the thumb zone: edit button. Twitter does something similar: navigation at bottom, and the New Tweet button at top. Because you don’t want to let tweets get away from you accidentally. You don’t HAVE to put data-changing buttons at top right. If it’s the primary action that you want people to take over and over again, then put it down at the bottom. That’s what Swarm does for checkin. (Twitter’s post button actually isn’t the primary action; navigation/reading is primary.) Here are a few examples. Feet at bottom, scale at top. Design to keep fingers out of way of content. Hands, feet, fingers at bottom to make room for display at top. Consider this a cardinal rule: put controls below content. Labels and active states too. Move them out of the way of the obscuring finger. Familiar pattern for keyboards. (And evidence of why you have to test your design on the device, not just draw it on desktop.) We’ve been focusing on iOS examples. In iOS, controls sink to screen bottom. But it all depends on who gets there first. So the story changes a little bit for Android. Complicated by the presence of system buttons on the bottom. They’re doing the right thing: controls below content. The trouble is, where do you put YOUR app controls.

However, there's an ugly truth to the world of technology: Much of what's hot today becomes obsolete tomorrow. Just look at the humble land-line telephone. Sure, many households still have them, but a growing number of people are relying solely on cell phones and ditching the expense of operating a land line. It's not difficult to imagine a future in which land-line telephones are no longer attached to our kitchen walls but are instead filling our landfills. Here's a look at some other key pieces of technology that, once essential, are on their way to becoming obsolete. In fact, many of these gizmos might become obsolete during the next 10 years.

  • History of Wearables
    The First Wearable Eye Glasses – 1286 The history of wearable technology starts with the first eye glasses; made in Italy in 1286, for monks who were transcribing texts, according to a sermon delivered on 23rd of February 1306, by the Dominican friar Giordano da Pisa: “It is not yet twenty years since there was found the art of making eyeglasses, which make for good vision …” The first wearable watch - 1505 The Pomader (Bisamapfeluhr), a 1505 watch was made in Germany, is recognised as the first portable timekeeping device invented. A far cry from today’s discrete and extremely precise watches. The Pomader wearable watch was large and fairly inaccurate. However, rather than being simply utilitarian pieces, these wearable watches were status symbols for German Lords and Ladies, being incredibly expensive to make and purchase. The Oldest Recorded Smart Ring – Qing Dynasty - 1644 The Abacus ring was developed in China and is the oldest smart ring. Smart rings may seem like something from an impossible (or at least highly unlikely) vision of the future, but surprisingly enough, technology that can be wrapped around our fingers isn’t anything new. Before the calculator watch, there was a smart ring. The smartest ring at that time, called the abacus ring. Developed in the Qing Dynasty era (1644-1911), the ring features a 1.2cm long, 0.7cm wide abacus that sits, right on the finger. The first wearable camera - 1907 Pigeon photography was an aerial photography technique invented in 1907 by the German apothecary Julius Neubronner. A homing pigeon was fitted with an aluminium breast harness to which a lightweight time-delayed miniature camera could be attached, being used to capture aerial photographs behind the enemy lines.

  • The Investment Case for Wearables
    The Investment Case for Wearables Executive Summary Wearable technology devices are mobile electronics that can be worn on a user’s body or attached to clothing for applications such as: Sports and Fitness, Industrial/Military, Infotainment/Lifestyle, and/or Healthcare and Medical. Examples of wearable devices include: activity trackers, smart watches, smart glass, body cameras, health monitors, virtual reality headsets, hearables, and wearable industrial computers. There are many reasons that wearables may be attractive from an investment standpoint. Global analyst MarketsandMarkets1 estimates the global wearables sector will grow in size from $23 billion today, to $173 billion in 2020. Wearable devices seamlessly integrate computer and monitoring functionality, providing easy and reliable access to immediate information, acting as an “untethered” gateway to the Internet of Things. It is no wonder that according to Forrester Research2, 76% of global tech and business leaders have wearables on their agenda as a tool to harness data and enhance customer interaction. When it comes to the enterprise market, Forrester expects wearable adoption to go “mainstream” from 2017 to 2019 and to move to “business centrality” from 2020 to 2024.3 A Brief History of Wearables Wearable devices such as activity trackers, smart watches, body cameras, and virtual reality headsets have taken the consumer market by storm, with a multitude of devices available for purchase. But how did it all begin? Humans have always adorned their bodies with gadgets, for show, utility or both. The history of wearable technology is littered with many commercial failures, but also some groundbreaking commercial successes. While the air-conditioned hat, Pulsar calculator watch, and Levi’s ICD + Jacket never took off, the Sony Walkman portable music player was a huge commercial success in 1979, paving the way for other music players such as Apple’s iPod in 2001.

  • SOCIAL WORK and TECHNOLOGY COLUMN Watch
    SOCIAL WORK AND TECHNOLOGY COLUMN Watch Apps Are the Next Big Thing Recently, I had been thinking about what the next big change could be for Social Work and Technology. I’ll admit I’m not a super big visionary guy and it would be hard to come up with a technology that doesn’t exist yet - but I think the next big frontier will be related to our watches. We have already seen the rise of the smart watch, what more can it become? I remember in high school when calculator and TV remote watches came out. They were a big deal, especially when a classmate would randomly turn the TV on during class with a substitute teacher! I had a calculator watch and that wasn’t very disruptive. After that I wore a standard Timex Ironman watch for a long time (I still wear them sometimes). I got my first GPS watch when we moved to Minnesota 10 years ago and that was really helpful for my running and biking experiences in a new place. Last year a friend gave me an entry level smart watch. It only has basic features (primarily alerts) but I have really grown to like it. Many times my pocket and my wrist both buzz at the same time! It is handy to know who is calling or if a text is urgent or not without pulling out the phone. My wife has a new Apple Watch and I can definitely see many benefits from its more advanced features. She can control her phone from her wrist as long as its connected to the same Wi-Fi.

  • Gesturecalc: an Eyes-Free Calculator for Touch Screens

Wobbrock2, Richard E. Ladner1 1Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering, 2The Information School DUB Group | University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195, USA 1{bindita, lrperlmu, philipmg, jfogarty, ladner}@cs.washington.edu, 2{jpetelka, wobbrock}@uw.edu ABSTRACT A digital calculator is one of the most frequently used touch screen applications. However, keypad-based character input in existing calculator applications requires precise, targeted key presses that are time-consuming and error-prone for many screen readers users. We introduce GestureCalc, a digital calculator that uses target-free gestures for arithmetic tasks. It allows eyes-free target-less input of digits and operations through taps and directional swipes with one to three fngers, guided by minimal audio feedback. We conducted a mixed methods longitudinal study with eight screen reader users and found that they entered characters with GestureCalc 40.5% faster on average than with a typical touch screen calculator. Participants made more mistakes but also corrected more errors with GestureCalc, resulting in 52.2% fewer erroneous calculations than the baseline. Over the three sessions in the (a) GestureCalc (b) Baseline study, participants were able to learn the GestureCalc gestures Figure 1.

I collect all sorts of calculators, so if you happen to have one you no longer need, let me know. My talk is called… What is a Calculator? When you think of a calculator, what do you think of? Calculators aren’t just your trusty Casio FX-82s and TI-84-plusses. That’s just one kind of calculator. Five Types of Calculator 1. Placeholder / Accounting 2. Tabular 3. Mechanical 4. Electronic 5. Simulated In the next five minutes I’m going to tell you about five distinct types of calculator: Placeholder calculators, tabular calculators, mechanical calculators, electronic calculators and simulated calculators. What is a calculator? An object you can use to perform a mathematical calculation. needs external operator can operate itself is a calculator is a computer Fixed Modifiable Purely Memory Purely Functional So, what is a calculator? It’s an object you can use to perform a mathematical calculation. But hold on, that includes things like “pencil” and “laptop,” things you wouldn’t usually refer to as calculators. So let’s get more specific. If we had a gradient between purely information (fixed) and purely functional (modifiable), calculators sit about here. That also teaches us the difference between computers and calculators. Computers are more functional because they can be programmed to operate themselves, whereas calculators must be operated externally. calculus accounting / reckoning “calc” + “ulus” chalk / limestone + tiny calculator a person who reckons Let’s start at the beginning.

  • Application Development for Smartwatches
    DEGREE PROJECT, IN COMPUTER SCIENCE , SECOND LEVEL STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2015 Application development for smartwatches AN INVESTIGATION IN SUITABLE SMARTWATCH APPLICATIONS DAN ISACSON KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND COMMUNICATION (CSC) Application development for smartwatches An investigation in suitable smartwatch applications Dan Isacson [email protected] June 2015 Swedish title: Applikationsutveckling för smarta klockor En undersökning inom lämpliga applikationer för smarta klockor Master's Thesis KTH Royal Institute of Technology Masters Programme, Computer Science School of Computer Science and Communication (CSC) Supervisor at The Mobile Life: Kenneth Andersson Supervisor at KTH: Arvind Kumar Examiner: Olle Bälter Abstract The smartwatch has been predicted to be the next big thing in the ecosystem of wearable and mobile devices. The suc- cess of the smartphone has a lot to do with the support from third party developers and their applications. This support will most likely be of utmost importance if the smartwatch is going to be successful. But what are suitable applications for this type of device? What are people’s ex- pectations and opinions on smartwatches? This thesis work delved into these matters with focus on development for the Apple Watch. This was done through an online survey that reached more than 1400 people, through a field study for one person that used the smartwatch as an air-travel tool and finally through a usability test conducted on five peo- ple that tried out several applications, most of which were developed for this project. Four different applications were implemented: a timetable application, a museum audio- guide, a game and an airline application.

  • Quality of Experience in Relation to Wearables
    Quality of Experience in Relation to Wearables A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Nadia Hussain Department of Information Systems and Computing, Brunel University January 2020 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to apply the concept of Quality of Experience (QoE) to wearables. QoE is inextricably linked to the user experience of multimedia computing and, although QoE has been explored in relation to other types of multimedia devices, thus far its applicability to wearables has remained largely ignored. Given the proliferation of wearable devices and their growing use to augment and complement the multimedia user experience, the need for a set of QoE guidelines becomes imperative. The study which forms the focus of this PhD meets that need and puts forward a set of guidelines tailored exclusively towards wearables’ QoE. Accordingly, an extensive experimental investigation has been undertaken to see how wearables impact users’ QoE in both multimedia and multiple sensorial media (mulsemedia) contexts. Based on two exploratory studies, the findings have shown that the haptic vest (KOR-FX) enhanced user QoE to a certain extent. In terms of adoption, participants reported they would generally incorporate the heart rate (HR) monitor wristband (Mio Go) into their daily lives as opposed to the haptic vest. Other findings revealed that human factors play a part in user’s attitudes towards wearables and predominantly age was the major influencing factor across both of the studies. Moreover, the participants’ HR varied throughout the experiments, suggesting an enhanced level of engagement whilst viewing the multimedia video clips. Furthermore, the results suggest that there is a potential future for wearables, if the QoE is a positive one and also if the design of such devices are appealing as well as unobtrusive.
