The examples of User Interfaces above are all things you can relate to and have probably experienced with devices such as the Amazon Kindle, iPhone and Wii Game system…but what is next? These devices represent the very beginning of a revolution in Human-Computer Interaction. What will replace the iPhone? What will replace the Wii?
It used to be that interacting with a computer required people to learn a new “language.” From command prompts to mouse clicks, we adapted to the way computers worked. Now computers are learning to interact with us the way we normally interact with the world: through simple and intuitive gestures and natural movements. We have gathered an expert group of panelists who will demo what they are working on as well as tackle questions such as:
What new applications, games, and devices will emerge as technology becomes more sophisticated? Will these technologies make their way into the workplace? What are the opportunities for your business in this space?
We have also sourced some of the most cutting edge research projects in Human-Computer Interaction to provide attendees with a hands-on learning experience – this is an event you don’t want to miss!
