Content

In Human-Computer Interaction 1, we look at basic interaction aspects between human and computer. You will learn how interfaces on computers, machines and devices are created and implemented in a way that enables efficient and pleasant operation.

Topics to be addressed:

  • Information processing of humans (models, physiological and psychological basics, human senses, operational processes)
  • Basics and methods of design
  • Input and output modalities for computers, embedded systems and mobile devices
  • Basics and examples for designing user interfaces
  • Methods for modeling user interfaces (abstract description of the interaction, incorporation into the requirement analysis and the software development process)
  • Evaluation of systems in human-computer interaction (tools, evaluation methods, performance measurements, checklists)

You will be taught the fundamental problem statement and known solutions for human-centered interface design. Practical skills are acquired through the creation of prototypes and interface concepts as well as the evaluation of software and hardware systems regarding their usability.

This course is eligible for the following course of studies:
