4. New Types of
Interaction
• Our activities are supported by a wide
range of devices and software.
• Our devices are capable of sensing the
context of our activities.
• Our devices and services are still being
designed in isolation.

7. Post-Desktop Model of
HCI
• Information processing is integrated into
everyday objects [1].
• Ubiquitous computing is subsuming
traditional computing paradigms, for
example desktop and mobile computing
[2].

8. Invisible Computing
• Interaction with computers should be
more like interaction with the physical
world [1].
• Users should be able to sense and control
what directly interests them [2].
• Our devices remain the focus of attention
instead of fading into the background.

10. People and Computers
• Previously a ”one-to-one” relationship, one
technology - one application - one user.
• Nowadays “many-to-many”, with ever-
changing configurations of devices,
applications, and users.
Brodersen, C., Bødker, S., Klokmose, C.: Ubiquitous substitution. Human-Computer Interaction–INTERACT 2007 pp. 179–192 (2007)
12. Context
• Any information, which characterizes the
situation of a person, a place or an object,
relevant to the interaction between a user
and an application [1].
• Ubiquitous computing as ”a technology of
context” [2].

13. Types of Context
• Where you are.
• Who you are with.
• What resources are nearby.

computing, which include multiple, dynamic,

• Occurring everywhere
• Occurring on any device with ease of
substituting devices when necessary
• Being transparent
• Being informed by context

27. The New Reality
• People use a plethora of different devices
and services to support their activities.
• Devices can collect and leverage contextual
information.
• We currently do not have a clear
understanding how to design for this type
of interaction.
