H C I “Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid. Humans beings are incredibly slow, inaccurate and brilliant. Together they are powerful beyond imagination.“ Albert Einstein 1879 - 1955
HCI? • Interactive Systems vs. Non-interactive Systems • How do we interact? • Media • 5 sensory modalities • I/O devices • Process • Models and theories
HCI? It is a scientific and engineering discipline concerned with the theory, models, design, implementation and evaluation of interactive computational systems for the benefit of humans. Its goal is to make such systems more accessible, usable and usable to humans. HCI primarily study computer technology and people psychology .
HCI? • The theory (science) of: • Human • Computer • And the practice (engineering) of: • Interaction between the two • The practice involves Iterative Design, i.e. cycles of: • Design • Implementation • Evaluation • Highly interdisciplinary • Computer Science, Industrial Design/Engineering, Psychology, Graphic Design, Ergonomics, Anthropology, Sociology, Education...
