Multitouch interfaces

Tap, the Multitouch Table in Room 201

Interface Design

General Principles of Interaction Design
Dan Saffer: Tap is the new click Intro lecture on designing for touch screen interfaces.
History of Multi-touch by Bill Buxton
Touch Gesture and Marking Kapitel aus "Readings in Human Computer Interaction" (by Buxton)
Chunking and Phrasing make things easier and more efficient - if you get it right! (by Buxton)
"a step backward in usability" are todays Touch-Interfaces, as Don Norman says.
iPad Usability: First Findings From User Testing backs up Normans assumptions.
User-Defined Gestures for Surface Computing is research on the expectations of users about Touchscreen-Interfaces: physical gestures (like direct manipulation) are used often. Symbolic gestures in contrast are seldom used. In addition users don't care for the number of touching fingers and expect graphical representations of functions. (GUI)
Asymmetric Division of Labor in Human Skilled Bimanual Action: The Kinematic Chain as a Model Guiards research on how people use both hands together. The non-dominant (usually left) sets the context first, the dominant comes later and does the finer work. Consider positioning a sheet of paper and writing on it.
Brave NUI World is a book on Design for Touchscreen-Interfaces. It's in our library.
