Better Realising Direct Manipulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Direct Manipulation is an approach to designing user interfaces, which forms the basis of Graphical User Interfaces. Despite the importance of the concept, no mathematical model of Direct Manipulation has yet been developed. This paper proposes a model of Direct Manipulation, which relates cognitive distance with user familiarity and the novel concepts of “tech bias”, “velocity” and “inertia”.

متن کاملComparison of Input Devices in an ISEE Direct Timbre Manipulation Task
The representation and manipulation of sound within multimedia systems is an important and currently under-researched area. The paper gives an overview of the authors’ work on the direct manipulation of audio information, and describes a solution based upon the navigation of fourdimensional scaled timbre spaces. Three hardware input devices were experimentally evaluated for use in a timbre spac...
متن کاملDirect Manipulation on the Virtual Workbench: Two Hands Aren't Always Better Than One
This paper reports on the investigation of the differential levels of effectiveness of various interaction techniques on a simple rotation and translation task on the virtual workbench. Manipulation time and number of collisions were measured for subjects using four device sets (unimanual glove, bimanual glove, unimanual stick, and bimanual stick). Participants were also asked to subjectively j...
