MESH: Supporting Mobile Multi-modal Interfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Handheld devices possess limited input and output functionality when compared with desktop computers. However, many mobile interfaces are simply adaptations of desktop GUIs, and not designed specifically with this reduced capacity for communication in mind. Multi-modal interfaces may serve to redress this discrepancy. In particular we suggest that input in the form of motion and output in the form of vibration is a powerful combination. We describe MESH, a novel expansion for iPaq handheld computers featuring such functionality and a number of application domains that we exploring to showcase how its capabilities can be employed.

Supporting Multi-Modal Interfaces for Adaptive Tour Planning
Typical examples for mobile GI services include tour planning and maps for navigation support (Reuter and Zipf 2004). We have developed several prototypes of mobile GI services for navigation tasks including user-adaptive tour planning as well as supporting multi-modal (i.e. graphical, natural language and gestures based) interfaces. As the development of GI services that adapt to user and cont...
متن کاملA paradigm for mobile speech-centric services
The work presented in this paper describes a new paradigm for speech interaction on mobile devices. A general framework for a distributed architecture is introduced and described. This is followed by a discussion of how to design multi modal interfaces affording spoken input. The solution has been to create an architecture capable of supporting several alternative GUIs, e.g. with spoken input, ...

متن کاملEngineering Multimedia-Aware Personalized Ubiquitous Services
Ubiquitous computing focusing on users and tasks instead of devices and singular applications is an attractive vision for the future. Especially the idea of nomadic, mobile users poses new challenges on hardware and software. Mobile devices provide vastly different presentation capabilities and need to integrate into heterogeneous environments. Network bandwidth is far from being constant and s...
متن کاملSupporting the construction of a user model in speech-only interfaces by adding multi-modality
Comparing to graphical user interfaces, speech-only interfaces face several problems: robustness, making clear what functionality is available, and making clear how the functionality may be accessed. We explore a potential solution for these problems by presenting a visual representation of the domain of discourse and of the state of the dialogue. We describe an experiment in which uni-modal an...
