What is HCI
• Human-computer interaction is a discipline concerned with the
design,evaluation and implementation of interactive computing
system for human use and with the study of major phenomena
surrounding them.
• HCI is the study and the practice of usability.
It is about undestanding and creating software and other
technology that people will want to use,will be able to use,and
will find effective when used.

H is to ry

• 1970’s: User Interface,or Man Machine Interface(MMI)

1. Those aspects of the system that the user comes in contact with.
2. An input language for the user,an input language for the machine,and a
protocol for interaction.
• 1990’s:HCI , with broader focus
• A discipline concerned with the design,evaluation and implementation of
interactive computer system for human use and with the study of major
phenomena surrounding them
Human

Humans are limited in their capacity to process information.


This has important implications for design
Information is received and responses given a number of input and
output channels:
• Visual channel
• Auditory channel
• Haptic channel
• Movement
Human
Information is stored in memory:
• Sensory Memory
• Working Memory
• Long-term Memory
Computer
There is not much difference in Human and computer
Computer consist of
• Input Devices
• Output Devices
• Memory
• Processing
Computer can be mobile,spacecraft Cockpit,Microwave oven
or VCRs etc
Interaction
HCI is concerned with join performance of
task by Human and Computer
Communication between the user and the
system
Physical Interaction
• Interaction Devices
Conceptual Interaction
• Interaction styles
Goals

The main goal of HCI is usability


“It is a measure of the effectiveness,efficiency and satisfaction
with which specified user can achieve specified goals in a
particular environment”
A usable System is:
• Easy to learn
• Easy to remember how to use
• Effective to use
• Efficient to use
• Safe to use
• Enjoyable to use
The Field of HCI
• Psychology
• Ergonomics and human factors
• Engineering
• Design
• Ethnography
• Sociology
• Language
• Computer science
Cognition
Cognition is the processing of information
It includes
• Perception
• Attention
• Pattern Matching
• Memory
• Language processing
• Decision Making
• Problem solving
Cognition
Human information processing
• Information processing capabilities
• Cognitive Requirement of various task
• Characterize the information processing of a user
Three main Cognitive challenges
• Conceptual Complexity
• memory load
• Attention
Distributed cognition
The model Human Processor
The model human processor consists of three interacting
system.Each has its own memory and processor.
Perceptual Processor
• Output into audio storage
• Output into visual storage
Cognitive Processor
• Output into working memory.
• Has access to :
Working memory
Long term memory
Motor Processor
• Carries out actions
User Interaction Design
• Data Collection
• Dtata Analysis
• User Modeling
• Design
• Prototyping
• Evaluation
Interaction Styles
• Command Line Interface
• Menus
• Question&Answer Dialogue
• Form-fill interface
• WIMP(windows,Icons,Menus and
pointers)
• Direct manipulation
• Natural language
Interaction Devices
Input Devices
• Keyboards
• Mouse,Trackballs,Touch pads
• Touch screen
• Speech input
• 3D trackers, 3D Mouse
Output Devices
• Screen
• Printers
• Sound output
Future

• Artifical Intelligent
• Virtual Reality
• New interface Devices
