Non-conventional User-Interaction. General Considerations and Case Studies
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2009, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents several aspects of interest regarding the current non-conventional user-interaction methods. The conducted experiments were focused on using specific hardware devices – e.g., sensor gloves, mobile terminals, etc. –, and on “atypical” interactive manners to have access to information or knowledge available on the Web.
