چکیده

As technology becomes increasingly widespread, we are confronted with the burden of controlling a myriad of complex devices in our day-to-day activities. While many people today could hardly imagine living in an electronicsfree home or working in an office without computers, few of us have truly mastered control of our VCRs, microwave ovens, or office photocopiers. Rather than making our lives easier, as technology was intended to do, it has complicated our activities with instruction manuals and confusing user interfaces.

Throwing away your keyboard and mouse

increasingly widespread, we are confronted with the burden of controlling a myriad of complex devices in our day-today activities. While many people today could hardly imagine living in electronics-free homes or working in offices without computers, few of us have truly mastered full control of our VCRs, microwave ovens, or office photocopiers. Rather than making our lives easier, as technology...

Human Computer Interaction Using Vision-Based Hand Gesture Recognition

With the rapid emergence of 3D applications and virtual environments in computer systems; the need for a new type of interaction device arises. This is because the traditional devices such as mouse, keyboard, and joystick become inefficient and cumbersome within these virtual environments. In other words, evolution of user interfaces shapes the change in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). In...

Building your own instrument with Pd

Computer music performance environments have evolved greatly in recent years, allowing complex control and interaction with sound in real time. But the interaction has too frequently been tied to the keyboard-mouse-monitor model, narrowly constraining the range of possible gestures the performer can use. The range of human interface devices has also greatly increased, making it much easier for ...

Assessing the Posture and predicting the factors affecting musculoskeletal disorders in computer uses by neural networks

Introduction: Working with a computer and workplace conditions expose people to risk factors of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). This study aimed to assess posture, examine MSDs, and determine, weigh and prioritize the risk factors among computer users by a neural network algorithm.  Material and Methods: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in six phases on compute...
