Human Computer Interaction Icons



In human-computer interaction (HCI), "icons" are pictographic symbols which are used as part of the dialogue in order to represent processes and data in the computer.


The user makes a selection of one or more icons on a display, in order to invoke processes and manipulate data.

Why are icons used? As graphic symbols, computer icons help users quickly and easily identify what they need or want.

The use of icons also provides a more appealing visual representation, which makes them more enjoyable to use than traditional text-based links.






Example of some system icons are My Computer, Recycle Bin, My Documents, Internet Explorer etc.
Shortcut Icons:

 These are the icons with small arrows in the lower left corner. A shortcut icons provides easy access to some objects on our systems, such as a program, a document or a printer.

Games user research and gamification in human-computer interaction.

Image
The impact of HCI on society is mainly improving the ease of use of computers and other devices. Modern computers and other electronic devices do not require the user to have as much training or specialized information as they used to. Gamification is a technique which designers use to insert gameplay elements in non-gaming settings, so they enhance user engagement with a product or service. By weaving suitably fun features such as leaderboards and badges into an existing system, designers tap users' intrinsic motivations so they enjoy using it more. User Research is all about investigating the different aspects of the user experience: how games fit into our lives, why we play them, what encourages us to keep playing, and what makes us stop. Human Computer Interaction (HCI) plays a critical role in the study of games. By examining player characteristics, interactions during game play, and behavioral implications of game play, HCI professionals can help design and develop better gam...

Revolutionizing Human-Computer Interaction: Introducing Predictive Touch with AI Smart Skin Spray

  Revolutionizing Human-Computer Interaction: Introducing Predictive Touch with AI Smart Skin Spray Machine learning enables electronic devices, such as electronic gloves and skins, to follow the motion of human hands and carry out operations like gesture and object recognition. These devices can’t bend to the shape of the body and continue to be bulky. A recent study that was published in the journal Nature describes how scientists have created a novel substance that can be sprayed onto the back of human hands to track their movements. The researchers have created a prototype that can even predictably type with both hands on an invisible keyboard and recognize basic things by touch. The nanomesh mimics human cutaneous sensors by converting electrical resistance changes from minute skin strains into proprioception. It is constructed of biocompatible materials and may be directly printed on a person’s hand. Due to its low computing cost and simple user implementation, a single nanom...

The Multidisciplinary of Human Computer Interaction

Image
Multidisciplinary of HCI- Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is a multidisciplinary field which combines the theories and practices from a number of fields including computer science, cognitive and behavioral psychology, anthropology, sociology, ergonomics, industrial design It can enhance the product's impact and maximise the contributions of each discipline. With the help of design systems, multidisciplinary teams can share and develop their skills and abilities. A multidisciplinary team (MDT) should consist of psychiatrists, clinical nurse specialists/community mental health nurses, psychologists, social workers, occupational therapists, medical secretaries, and sometimes other disciplines such as counsellors, drama therapists, art therapists, advocacy workers, care workers Website link : .https://hci.sfconferences.com/awards/  Twitter : https://twitter.com/JaslinRoshna #usability #safety #funtionality
