dc.description.abstract | Graphic design is an integral component of user interface design.
Ubiquitous computing is the a form of computing that is "everywhere
all the time" through technology advances in hardware, software, and
communication networks. Consumers are able to retrieve and send
information whenever a task needs to be completed. Graphic design
is part of the visual mechanism through which people interact with
devices. The visual interactive components of these devices are the
part of computing systems that are addressed in this project.
This thesis addresses the problems that arise when people need to
interact with several devices at a given time. The goal is to make the
experience of an imaging appliance as enjoyable and useful as possible.
Graphic design is the key component in the visual communication
aspect of these devices. The ideas used in the scenarios that are
described in the ideation stage assume that future technologies are
mainstream and used by the mass consumer. Although these assumptions
may or may not come to fruition, graphic design will still be a integral
part of that user experience. | en_US |
