The Human Interation of the future of Mobile Device

The article discusses four point toward the increasing of the mobile research in human-computer interaction.
Fist point
  • IMPROVING MOBILE DEVICE ACCESSIBILITY
Second point he Made
  • RESPONDING TO SITUATIONAL IMPAIRMENTS
Third point
  • UBI-INPUT: LEARN ONCE, WRITE ANYWHERE
Four point
  • EDUCATION & MEDICINE ON MOBILE PHONES
Trend:1 The overall the population of the smartphone are increasing rapidly according to the research paper by 2050 there will be 4199 million users will active in USA.There was 42% increased in the 45 years of the current population.

Trend:2 The increasing amount of personal computing done away from the desktop.As mobile drives are nowadays part of our routine, but there are issues due to small screen hard to read context on mobile phones when sunlight is striking on your cell phone according to the research paper.Once situational impairments are better understood, it would be useful and interesting to discover whether physical impairments and situational impairments affect users in similar ways.

Trend #3: The increasing capabilities of ever-smaller devices.

Due to much device it is frustrating to learn new input techniques when encountering each new device.For example, there are PDA we had graffiti then it becomes graffiti 2 PocketPC need jot.If we are to take advantage of the trend of growing device capabilities, we will have to design more powerful input techniques for humans to utilize on virtually any device or off-desktop platform.

Trend #4: The convergence of computing capabilities onto the mobile phone.

According to the research paper that in 2004 in Europe there were 15 billion SMS messages were sent each month.And now days Africa is the world fastest growing mobile phone markets."But research will have to be conducted that involves experts across the HCI spectrum, from anthropology to interaction designers to usability engineers.The social, economic, educational, and medical issues will have to be understood before software can be written or user interfaces designed."

"New research opportunities exist for improving mobile device accessibility; understanding, sensing, and responding to situational impairments; inventing new input techniques that can be used across multiple devices; and deploying new applications for education and medicine in developing nations. These exciting efforts await researchers skilled in mobile HCI and in meeting the needs of real users."
