Klappentext

Written by Human Factors experts with experience in the design and implementation of each of the interfaces, Beyond the GUI explores the human factors involved in the design and implementation of the interfaces, detailing design strategies, testing methodologies, and techniques that are separate and novel from traditional GUI design. In addition, each chapter will include detailed case studies designed to show how these fundamentals are translated into practice in the field. Each chapter in the book covers a specific non-GUI interface.

Zusammenfassung
Explores the human factors involved in the design and implementation of the nontraditional interfaces, detailing design strategies, testing methodologies, and implementation techniques. This book offers case studies, examples, and design guidelines. It is intended for practitioners who design interfaces for children, gamers, and users.
