  • Avoiding Average: Recording Interaction Data to Design for Specific User Groups

    Springer

    Designing domestic user interfaces for broad user populations means designing for the average user. To design for more personally intuitive interfaces detailed interactive behaviours need to be captured and described in order to better inform the design process. By utilising technologies such as interface skins, log file analysis and user interface description languages, the PROSKIN project is developing an empirical tool for quantitative capture, description and analysis of interactive…

    Designing domestic user interfaces for broad user populations means designing for the average user. To design for more personally intuitive interfaces detailed interactive behaviours need to be captured and described in order to better inform the design process. By utilising technologies such as interface skins, log file analysis and user interface description languages, the PROSKIN project is developing an empirical tool for quantitative capture, description and analysis of interactive behaviour in a non-invasive and situated context. The purpose of the tool is to identify user groups by distinguishing behaviour or trait which will allow designers to develop more personally relevant user interfaces. The tool itself facilitates the analyses of large datasets of users and their interactive behaviours. This will allow designers to produce interface skins for user groups of similar interactive profile and subsequently providing a less average user experience.

  • Informing intelligent environments: creating profiled user interfaces

    Proceedings of EUSAI

    Designing user interfaces for broad user populations often means average user interfaces that do not take individual differences into consideration. The PROSKIN project is researching whether subsets of users can be identified and grouped by distinguishing interactive behaviours so that a more personally optimised interaction can be designed. This paper discusses the design and development of a research environment to support this research.
