Au cours de ces dernières décennies, de nombreuses méthodes et outils d’évaluation des Interfaces Hommes- Machines (IHM) ont été proposés. Ces derniers permettent d’effectuer des évaluations qualitatives ou quantitatives. En général, les... more
An increasing number of today's consumer devices such as mobile phones or tablet computers are equipped with various sensors. The extraction of useful information such as gestures from sensor-generated data based on mainstream imperative... more
Over the last few years, there has been a significant increase in the number of researchers dealing with the integration of paper and digital information or services. While recent technological developments enable new forms of... more
Recently, museums and historic sites have begun reaching out beyond their traditional audience groups, using more innovative digital display technology to find and attract a new audience. Virtual, mixed, and augmented reality technologies... more
PowerPoint is one of the most frequently used tools to present multimedia for educational purposes. Nevertheless, little is known about the users' needs when using PowerPoint during lecturing. Our study focused on the presenter's needs in... more
Saggio su interazione uomo macchina, usabilità, valore euristico dell'arte, le più diffuse tecnologie d'interfaccia, mems, gesture recognition. Contiene i seguenti case studies: smart laser scanner, physical motion interface,... more
There has been recent and trending needs for Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology due to its cost effectiveness , high security, high memory capacity and high speed of reading as compared to other Auto-ID Systems such as CCTV,... more
This lecture forms part of the 'Next Generation User Interfaces' course given at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
Data exploration and visualization systems are of great importance in the Big Data era. Exploring and visualizing very large datasets has become a major research challenge, of which scalability is a vital requirement. In this survey, we... more
In software development, the waterfall model is commonly used, especially for large-scale software systems. For smaller-scale software development, agile software development approaches such as extreme programming or scrum are used.... more
The technology of Smart Homes (SH), as an instance of ambient assisted living technologies, is designed to assist the homes’ residents accomplishing their daily-living activities and thus having a better quality of life while preserving... more
Document Image processing and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) have been a frontline research area in the field of human-machine interface for the last few decades. Recognition of Indian language characters has been a topic of interest... more
Over the last decade, there has been an increasing interest in paper-digital systems that allow regular paper documents to be augmented or integrated with digital information and services. Although a wide variety of technical solutions... more
Deaf people have difficulty communicating with the hearing people around them, but little research has addressed how new technology may help address this issue. The current research objectives were to (1) survey research on communication... more
In this paper we outline a genealogy of Mixed Reality Lab (MXR) projects, their influencing factors both from the Asian region and also within the lab, the employment of Blue-Sky Innovation by the lab for ideation, collaboration and... more
— Tongue controlled mouse is an ingenious human computer interface specially designed for disabled person and people with tetraplegia. Here we present a paper that evaluate the permanent magnet and metal detector to control an input... more
Despite recent work on information systems (ISs), many first responders in the UK Fire and Rescue Services (FRSs) are unable to develop sufficient understanding of the situation to enable them to make good decisions. As a partial... more
When operating a machine, the operator needs to know some spatial relations, like the relative location of the target or the nearest obstacle. Often, sensors are used to derive this spatial information, and visual displays are deployed as... more
This paper introduces an approach for evaluating user interfaces built on visual rhetoric and the rhetorical notion of function. A personal informatics mobile application has been selected to exemplify the application of this approach.... more
Speed has become a way of life. We are asymptotically piling data. Speed can be achieved with new design processes, techniques, and Technology. Innovations AR and VR are just some of the many forms of technologies that will play a key... more
This special issue has several articles concerning ergonomics (human factors) and technology.
All areas of language and speech technology, directly or indirectly, require handling of real (unrestricted) text. For example, text-to-speech systems directly need to work on real text, whereas automatic speech recognition systems depend... more
This paper introduces a scheme for classification of online handwritten characters based on polynomial regression of the sampled points of the sub-strokes in a character. The segmentation is done based on the velocity profile of the... more
Globalization via the digital age is upon us, demanding a new ethics and an intercultural awareness while the dialectics of globalism and cyberspace mandate a committed reflection on what the synthesis between the digital realm and global... more
This paper provides an evaluation of the SingleTapBraille keyboard, designed to assist people with no or low vision in using touchscreen smartphones. This application allows blind users to input characters based on braille patterns. To... more
Touchscreen calculators require a user to visually locate a button on the screen. This poses a challenge for individuals with limited or no vision. To overcome this challenge, prior to use these individuals must invest additional time and... more
In this paper, we present a user-centred approach for designing and developing smart homes for people with dementia. In contrast to most of the existing literature related to dementia, the present approach aims at tailoring the system to... more
