Controlling the Home - A User Participatory Approach to Designing a Simple Interface for a Complex Home Automation System.
HCI(2015)
摘要
This paper presents our experience with a Participatory Design approach designing an interface for controlling a home automa- tion system. In a Future Workshop, users imagined that a home could be visualized as a graph, with nodes representing the devices in a house- hold, and edges representing the interconnectivity between the devices. Participants later gave feedback on a refined mock-up of the interface, confirming that the idea of using a graph would be suitable for present- ing the devices in a household. In the third iteration, users assessed a high-fidelity prototype. This evaluation focused on the graph interfaceu0027s ability to control a home automation system, and its ability to create an overview of the devices. Based on the feedback from the participants, we concluded that the prototype was able to convey an overview of the devices, and that a graph based interface would be suitable for control- ling a home automation system.
