A Literature Survey on Fitts’ Law and its Applications
The way of pointing a target object and the movement time of the pointer lead to a challanging problem in HCI. A large number of seminal paper have been proposed towards this. Moreover, the HCI community uses few formulas, and are related to Fitts’ law. Few are derived from Shannon’s information theory. This paper introduces a survey on Fitts’ law and its derivatives. Finally, we study the vari...
متن کاملCalculation of Totally Optimized Button Configurations Using Fitts' Law
This paper addresses the problem of optimal placement and configuration for a set of buttons on a graphical user interface (GUI). We present an optimization algorithm that reduces the average time necessary for pointing device motions. Fitts’ law (Fitts 1954) is used to estimate the transfer time for cursor movements between buttons. Numerous studies in the literature focus on the verification ...
متن کاملInformation Theoretic Models of HCI: A Comparison of the Hick-Hyman Law and Fitts' Law
The Hick-Hyman Law and Fitts’ Law are two surviving human performance principles based on Shannon and Weaver’s (1949) Information Theory. In the early 1980s, Card, Moran, and Newell (1983) presented the laws as design principles for developers to maximize usability in the design of human–computer interfaces. A search of the current human–computer interaction (HCI) literature, however, will reve...
متن کاملTool-mediated HCI Modeling Instruction in a Campus_based Software Quality Course
The Keystroke Level Model (KLM) and Fitts’ Law constitute core teaching subjects in most HCI courses, as well as many courses on software design and evaluation. The KLM Form Analyzer (KLM-FA) has been introduced as a practitioner’s tool to facilitate web form design and evaluation, based on these established HCI predictive models. It was also hypothesized that KLMFA can also be used for educati...
متن کاملTheories in Computer human interaction Fitts’ Law: Modeling Movement Time in HCI
Fitts' law is a model of human psychomotor behavior developed in 1954 [6]. Extending Shannon’s theorem 17 in information theory (a formulation of effective information capacity of a communication channel), Fitts discovered a formal relationship that models speed/accuracy tradeoffs in rapid, aimed movement (not drawing or writing). According to Fitts’ Law, the time to move and point to a target ...
