However, the last few years have been dominated by a new trend in computing: the mobile use of computers. Wearable computers, which are a special kind of mobile computer, assist their users in managing primarily physical tasks. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Hendrik Witt examines user interfaces for wearable computers and analyses the challenges imposed by the wearable computing paradigm through its dual-task character. He discusses solutions for the development and evaluation of user interfaces which can be used in dual task scenarios. The author presents fundamental research results and introduces a special software tool as well as the \"HotWire\" evaluation method to facilitate user interface development and evaluation. Based on the findings of different end-user experiments conducted to study the management of interruptions with gesture and speech input in a wearable computing scenario, the author derives design guidelines and general constraints for forthcoming interface designs.","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45277858398359,"sku":"9783835102569","price":3639.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783835102569.webp?v=1769289381","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/user-interfaces-for-wearable-computers-development-and-evaluation-9783835102569","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
