Simplifying interaction on mobile devices using context-aware computing
(2015) MAMM01 20151Ergonomics and Aerosol Technology
- Abstract
- This thesis investigates how context-awareness and learning from user patterns could improve the user interaction for a smartphone applica- tion that can control the computer and home and how it could create a smarter more personal experience. It looks at both how a existing cus- tomers would react in three different experiments (a survey, interviews and a prototype of the application), and how non-users would like an application that could control their home with respect to context- awareness. In the experiment carried out on the non-users a web- based simulator was used to illustrate the different levels of awareness during an interview where the different scenarios were discussed and compared. It finds that that the existing customers... (More)

In the experiment carried out on the non-users a web- based simulator was used to illustrate the different levels of awareness during an interview where the different scenarios were discussed and compared. It finds that that the existing customers were interested in creating a more personal experience by adding context-awareness and learning user patterns. In addition, it finds that a majority of the non- customers would like as much automation as possible. (Less)
