Book User Interface Design

Download or read book User Interface Design written by Larry E. Wood and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although numerous sources document aspects of user-centered design, there are few references that consider how a designer transforms the information gathered about users and their work into an effective user interface design. This book explains just how designers bridge that gap. A group of leading experts in GUI design describe their methods in the context of specific design projects, and while the projects, processes, and methods vary considerably, the common theme is building a bridge between user requirements and user interface design.

Book What Is User Interface Design

Download or read book What Is User Interface Design written by Patricia Harris, Ph.D. and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why the play button for most music players is still the same right-facing triangle that was on every cassette player and VCR? User interface (UI) designers try to develop icons and controls that are so obvious they endure through the years and across technologies. For example, iPhone apps often feel so familiar because many designers use the UI toolkit from Apple with standard fonts and icons. Unlike user experience (UX) design, which has to do with the flow of a program, UI is all about the look and feel of software and hardware. With colorful photographs and helpful illustrations, readers will make the most of this essential coding topic.

Book Interface Design   Document Design

Download or read book Interface Design Document Design written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-08-04 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: User interfaces and supporting documentation are both supposed to help people when using a complex device. But often, these forms of support seem to come from different worlds. User interface designers, document designers, and researchers in both interface and document design share many goals, but are also separated by many barriers. In this book, user interface designers and documents designers from Microsoft Corporation and from Apple Computer, plus researchers from several universities try to bridge the gap between interface design and document design. They discuss opportunities for closer cooperation, and for more integrated and effective help for users of modern technology.

Book Human Interface Design to Control Home Appliances with Cellular Phones

Download or read book Human Interface Design to Control Home Appliances with Cellular Phones written by Haeinn Lee and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of having highly developed technology, the majority of people feel too uncomfortable with the technology to use it efficiently. This problem is intimately linked with the interface design of the products. The role of interface design is to communication between people and the technical product such as a cellular phone, computer, or PDA. To use the product successfully, the interface design should be easy to use. The objective of this research is to create a practical and user-friendly interface design for a wireless device to control home appliances. In order to control home appliances with a cellular phone, the author suggests a intuitive interface design that is friendly and attractive to users, based on their experience, and effectively uses graphic elements such as layout, icon, color, and text. A usability test was conducted to determine problems people have while using the prototype. The results of the usability test indicated that the user interface was successful, and participants were satisfied with the prototype.

Book User Interfaces for Wearable Computers
