Abstract

People visit public places with different intentions and motivations. While some explore it carefully, others may just want to pass or are otherwise engaged. We investigate how to exploit the inattentional blindness (IB) of indirect users in the design of public interfaces to apply to such diverse needs. Beginning with a structured literature study in the ACM Digital Library on IB, we analyzed 135 publications to derive design strategies that benefit from IB or avoid IB. Using these findings, we selected three existing interfaces for information presentation on a large public square and created two additional interfaces ourselves. We then compared users' perceptions through a self-reported photography study (N = 40). Participants followed one of four scripted profiles to imitate different user intentions, two for direct and two for indirect users. We hypothesized that direct users would recognize the interfaces, while indirect users would experience IB and ignore them. Our results show that direct users reported up to 68% of our interfaces, whereas indirect users noticed only 16%. Thus, IB can be exploited to hide interfaces from indirect users while keeping them noticeable to direct users.

The case of the missed icon: change blindness on mobile devices
CHI '12: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

Insights into human visual attention have benefited many areas of computing, but perhaps most significantly visualisation and UI design [3]. With the proliferation of mobile devices capable of supporting significantly complex applications on small ...
Perceptual depth to detect changes that we don't see
ECCE '07: Proceedings of the 14th European conference on Cognitive ergonomics: invent! explore!

Motivation: The purpose of this research is to understand how perceptual depth and information layering techniques can be used to improve the design of computer interfaces for safety critical environments in which failure or delays in observing changes ...
Assessing e-Readiness in SEE Countries: Perceptions towards e-Government Public Services
BCI '09: Proceedings of the 2009 Fourth Balkan Conference in Informatics

e-Government services are emerging rapidly in the developing world. Many countries use e-Government as an enabling tool to increase efficiency, enhance transparency, collect more revenue and facilitate public sector reform. Five factors are critical for ...
