Could Touch User Interfaces be the future ?

نویسنده

چکیده

In recent years the popularity of the touch user interface (TUI), has skyrocketed. There are currently no signs for this trend to diminish; to the contrary future vision videos from leading technology companies show a future relying even heavier on this method of input (e.g. Microsoft, 2009). However, reviews of TUI implementations point to a number of problems, including: lack of overview of available options and nonexistent feedback on interpretation of TUI actions (i.e. touch and gestures). Furthermore, TUI is questioned as to whether complex actions can be expressed through this medium (Norman, 2010). In exploring these problems, this essay finds no reason to doubt the ability of TUI technology to become dominant in the future.
