Towards a Unified Interaction Framework for Ubiquitous Computing User Interfaces

This paper discusses the evolution of user interfaces, focusing on the transition from traditional WIMP (Windows, Icons, Menus, Pointer) systems to Ubiquitous User Interfaces (UUI). It explores the principles of usability and interaction design leveraged in WIMP and examines how these concepts can be adapted to UUI. The authors speculate on aspects of WIMP that may inform the design of UIs for ubiquitous computing, addressing input/output modalities and the integration of physical and virtual interactions. Open questions about the applicability of past principles to future interfaces are also raised.

  5. UUI ??? Development of WIMP GUI • WIMP is the familiar subset of GUI • Resulted from usability design principles • Consistent interaction framework empowered users • Can we do the same for Ubicomp? • Can we take anything from WIMP? WIMP

  6. Ubiquitous User Interfaces (UUI) • More input types • Natural modes (Speech and sketch), Sensors • More output types • Small displays, aural, haptic, ambient • Multimodal I/O across multiple devices • Combinations of these inputs and outputs • Physical / Virtual spaces and objects

  7. Are There Things We Can Take from WIMP? • Windows -> Aggregation, managing tasks • Icons -> Objects, possible targets • Menus -> Commands, visual affordances • Pointer -> Selection, feedback on select

  8. A Thought ExperimentApplying AOCS to UUIs • Aggregations • Spaces, Tasks, Groups, Situations • Objects • Physical objects, Virtual Objects • Commands • Speech, gesture, menu selection • Selectors • Holding things, Laser pointers, Pens, Pointing • Lots of potential ambiguity here

  9. Open Questions • Is it useful to apply AOCS to UUIs? • More for explicit interaction, implicit too? • Accessibility? Distributed I/O? • What kinds of apps would it enable? • How to implement AOCS for UUIs? • Good design principles, ex. visibility, conceptual models, mappings, feedback • Mistakes of WIMP? Ex. Groupware • How to start? WIMP was monolithic and an entire package, niches we can start in?
