  4. Where We have Been and Where we are Going The 4 Manifestations of NUI: Multi-Touch, Vocal, Gesture, Neural There are a number of tenants of a great user interface that will last the test of time NUI enabled applications improve the communication, education and user experience across the software continuum.  Demos, Demos, Demos…. Objectives And Agenda The Natural User Interface (NUI) The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface

  5. Gesture Capable • Motion Based Interface • Tracking of full-body movement, facial expression, and voice with precision • Voice Capable • Multi-array Microphone • Uniquely Distinguish Audio & Voices • Nueral Capable • Conscious and non-conscience interfaces • Non Invasive • Multi-Touch Capable • Common Gestures of Touch • Physical Object Interaction • Virtual Object Interaction NUI: The Natural User Interface The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface

  11. What is Relatively New is: • Inexpensive Touch Capable, Non Proprietary Hardware • A Operating Systems designed for Multi-Touch • A Consistent Multi-Touch API for the major Hardware/Software Platforms • Developer Productivity in Touch Capable Apps • The Forecast of Multi-Touch Hardware Capability in Every New Computing Device in the Short Term The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface

  16. Defines a set of low-level events that represent one or more points of contact with a touch-sensitive surface Addresses pen-tablet devices, such as drawing tablets, with consideration toward stylus capabilities. Changes of those points with respect to the surface and any DOM elements displayed upon it (e.g. for touch screens) or associated with it (e.g. for drawing tablets without displays). HTML 5 Touch Events, Version 1W3C Working Draft 24 January 2013 “This specification is the 24 January 2013 Last Call Working Draft.

  20. The Tenants of an Engaging UX Use the Power of Faces People love faces; We see faces where they don’t exist We have DNA with the sole purpose of recognizing faces Take advantage of this by putting faces on your App Have the faces to look at important part of your App People instinctively follow the eyes of the face. Use Food, Sex and Danger When someone sees something new, they place it into one of four categories: Can I Eat it? Can it Eat Me? Can I Mate with it? …and everything else. If you want your App to be engaged and interesting, put it in one of the first three categories. The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface

  21. The Tenants of an Engaging UX Tell a story We learn through stories. It’s how we teach our children. It’s the Bible; It’s what we see in movies. Stories are a big part of how information is conveyed to us. If you have information to give to the user, put it in story form. It doesn’t matter what medium you use (words, pictures, music), but using a story narrative will help your user understand and retain your information. Build commitment over time Let the user choose how they want to interact with you (RSS, Twitter, Facebook) Make sure that you don’t take advantage of the trust that is implicit in that interaction. Use Natural Interactions of Objects Natural Movements Fluidity Animate / Exaggerate: Slow things down so the eye can follow The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface

  22. What is also Relatively New:User Experience with Naturally Behaving Objects • Large Form Factors demand natural behaviors • The User Experience is “never done” • It can always be improved • Tablet Computing paved the way • Software Physics Engines are readily available in open source The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface 22

  33. We are at the cusp of a revolution in software & hardware  Within a realistic time frame NUI computing will be the norm There are a number of design tenants that can enhance User Experience The concepts of NUI change the way we design and build software Using Natural User Interface (NUI) technologies improve the User Experience The hardware, tools, plumbing and platforms for NUI computing are powerful and available now.…and will just continue to get better, cheaper, powerful and more available Summary The Engaging User Experience & the Natural User Interface
