Effects of Display Position and Control Space Orientation on User Preference and Performance Presented at CHI2006, April, 2006 Daniel Wigdor Chia Shen Clifton Forlines Ravin Balakrishnan
Issues Display Position Control Space Orientation
Related Work HCI: • Nacenta et al. (2005) Psychology: • Hemholtz (1866), Stratton (1897): prism glasses • Cunningham (1989) • Cunningham & Welch (1994)
Our Goals Find: • Preferred: • Display position(s) • Control orientation(s) for each position • Optimal: • Display position(s) • Control orientation for each position • Performance penalties Recommend: • Ideal display position(s) • Ideal control orientation(s)
Task • Docking task:
Study 1: All About Preference • Setup: • Perform task at all 8 display positions • Participant sets control orientation • Measure: • Task time & error rate • Control orientation chosen by the participant • Participants’ preferred display position • Tells us: • Optimal display position • Preferred control orientation for each position • Performance at preferred control orientation
Design • 8 participants (all right handed) • 8 display positions • 40 trials per position • Participant-set control orientation +
Results: Display Position Preference • 6 of 8 participants prefer NE or NW position
Study 2: All About Performance • Setup: • Perform task at all 8 display positions • For each position, perform task at 8 control orientations • Measure: • Task time & error rate • Drag paths • Tells us: • Optimal control orientation for each position • Penalty for not meeting optimal • Display position and control orientation for shared displays
Design • 8 participants (all right handed) • 4 display positions each (8 total) • 4 fixed control orientations each (8 total) • 80 trials per position +
