UsiGesture: Test and Evaluation of an Environment for Integrating Gestures in User Interfaces

Beuvens, François [UCL] Vanderdonckt, Jean [UCL]

User interfaces allowing gesture recognition and manipulation are becoming more and more popular these last years. It however remains a hard task for programmers to developer such interfaces : some knowledge of recognition systems is required, along with user experience and user interface management knowledge. It is often difficult for only one developer to handle all this knowledge by itself and it is why a team gathering different skills is most of the time needed. We previously presented a method along with a tool in order to ease the collaboration between members of such a team. In this paper, we present results and feedbacks collected by observing different teams that followed the method and/or used the proposed tool.
