This paper proposes a wearable user interface intended for kids and parents using WearOS smartwatches. We first review what constitutes a kids smartwatch and then design UI components for watchfaces to be used by kids and parents. Different UI components ranging from activity, education, voice search, app usage, video, location, health, and quick dial are described. These components are either implemented as complications or on watchfaces and may require on-device standalone function, cross-device communication, and external database. We introduce a theme-based amusing UI for kids whereas simple and easily accessible components are recommended to parents' watchface. To illustrate use cases, we present 3 scenarios for enhancing communication between parents and child. To show feasibility and potential of our approach, we implement our proof-of-concept using commercial smartwatches, smartphones, and external cloud database. Furthermore, performance of checking app usages on different devices are presented, followed by discussion on limitations and future work.

The current study investigated the effect of user interface design on metaverse user's objective task performance, perceived usefulness, presence, and enjoyment. Using a 2 × 2 within-subject repeated measure experimental design, we found that users perceived the interface to be significantly more useful when additional visual cues existed and performed better for the given task. Additionally, a repeated-measure mediation analysis revealed that the effect of richer information in the interface on users' enjoyment as a function of need satisfaction was mediated by perceived usefulness. Theoretical and practical implication are derived from the result of the current study.

In this work, we studied consumers' attractiveness/usefulness perceptions (CAUP) of online commerce product photos when exposed to alternative dark/light user interface (UI) modes. We analyzed time-series EEG data from 31 individuals and performed neuroscience mining (NSM) to ascertain (a) how the CAUP of products differs among UI modes; and (b) which deep learning model provides the most accurate assessment of such neuroscience mining (NSM) business difficulties. The dark UI style increased the CAUP of the products displayed and was predicted with the greatest accuracy using a unique EEG power spectra separated wave brainwave 2D-ConvLSTM model. Then, using relative importance analysis, we used this model to determine the most relevant power spectra. Our findings are considered to contribute to the discovery of objective truths about online customers' reactions to various user interface modes used by various online marketplaces that cannot be uncovered through more traditional research approaches like as surveys.

This study analyzes the lobby UI of the baseball manager game based on the mobile platform and proposes an optimized lobby UI. The UI layout-based detailed icons and button interactions in the four game lobbies are compared and analyzed by comparing and analyzing the common points and differences to finally calculate the optimized UI composition. Furthermore, based on the analysis, we intend to propose a lobby UI optimized for user-centered design.

2006년 본 방송을 시작한 지상파 DMB 방송은 기존의 방송과 달리 하나의 물리 채널에 다양한 비디오와 오디오 서비스가 복합적이고 비 순차적인 형태로 제공되기 때문에 기존의 TV, Radio와 같은 기기 중심의 단순한 user interface 의 사용으로는 시청취에 제약이 발생한다. 따라서 비디오와 오디오, 오디오와 데이터, 비디오와 데이터와 같이 멀티 미디어 방송을 이동 중 시청취할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 user interface에 대한 개발이 필요하다. DMB 방송의 Information architecture 설계를 위한 기본적인 방송 관련 정보를 정의하였고, DMB 방송의 특징이라 할 수 있는 video service에 대한 고찰을 통해 DMB 방송 관련 기본 정보를 고찰하였다. 또한 방송 시청과 관련된 태스크 중심의 시나리오 개발을 통해 기능을 도출하고, 사용자들의 DMB 방송의 예상 시청 행태에 대한 조사 결과를 참조하여 필수적인 기능 중심으로 사용하기 쉽고, 기존 방송과 동일한 다양한 사용자를 고려하여 직관적인 인터페이스와 인터랙션을 제공하도록 설계하였다. 세부 UI 설계 단계에서는 기기 특성에 의한 제약 사항을 확인하고 방송구조의 시각화 대안 탐구 및 신호 해석에 의한 지연에 대한 민감도를 조사하고 방송 시청을 위한 화면 설계 및 네비게이션 방법을 설계하였다.

디지털방송의 애플리케이션(Xlet)은 시청자와 방송프로그램간의 상호작용에 중요한 역할을 담당한다. 현재 이러한 애플리케이션 UI는 평면이미지로 구성하는 것이 대부분이며 화면상 영역은 2차원으로 제한된다. 본 논문은 이러한 2차원의 평면적인 느낌을 극복하고 3차원이 가진 다양한 이점을 살리기 위한 3차원 UI구현방법을 제시한다. 이를 위해, 본 논문은 가상의 3D System, Virtual Timeline, Animation Model 등을 구성하였다. 3D System이란 UI가 3차원 좌표계를 가지기 위한 환경을 말하며, Timeline과 Animation Model은 제한적인 성능의STB에서 보다 진보된 애니메이션을 UI에 적용하기 위한 기법이다. 이들은 다양한 애플리케이션 제작, 서비스 개발 등에 응용이 가능하다. 디지털방송은 매우 빠른 속도로 발전하고 있으며 새로운 형태의 서비스가 속속 등장하고 있다. 이러한 흐름에 발맞춰 3D UI는 기존의 TV 화면에서 보다 진보된 형태의 사용자 인터페이스의 모습을 보여줄 것이다.

본 연구에서는 일상 생활 속에서의 사람들의 행태(behavior)를 Digital 환경에 반영하여, 보다 사용자에게 친숙한 형태의 사용자 경험을 제공하고자 한다. 그리고 사용자에게 감성적인 요소를 제공함으로써 컴퓨터 기기와의 Interaction 과정에서의 사용자 만족도를 높이고자 하였다. 우리는 이 연구를 통해서 User Preference 를 고려하여 사용자 의지에 따라 UI 의 변경이 가능하도록 하는 User Interface 의 설계를 제안한다. 또한 살아있는 객체와 interaction 하는 것 같은 느낌을 제공하여 사용자의 감성적 만족도를 높이고자 했으며 이 과정에서 Fluid interaction 의 개념이 적용되었다. Digital 환경의 한정된 공간을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있도록 하기 위해서 Zoomable UI 의 개념을 적용하여 사용자에게 효과적인 정보 전달을 하고자 하였다. 이러한 연구의 결과로서 Zoom in/out 이 가능한 새로운 개념의 Memo Application 을 설계, 구현하였다.

Recently, the scope of user interface is increasing the relative importance in software development dramatically. As a result, there are various relative technologies like as SWING, MFC, Web 2.0, and etc. However, most current software developments are progressed in separate development process with user interface part and business part respectively. This causes the problems, like as a difficulty in the integration process, an development period's delay, and a poor reusability for the constructed models. That is, the extendability and reusability of the created models is being decreased because UI modeling is not systematic and hierarchical, and the consistent integration technique between UI modeling and business modeling does not supported. To solve these problems, this paper proposes an unified and systematic UI modeling process based on UML, using the hierarchical metamodel according to the abstraction levels of development phase. We suggest an UI metamodel, which contains a hierarchy by layering the modeling elements in PIM and PSM based on maturity degree of the development. An hierarchical modeling process combined UI modeling and business modeling is built by applying the UI and business metamodel in terms of three modeling phases(concept/specification/concrete). The effectiveness of the modeling process is shown by applying the proposed process into an Internet Shopping Mall System. Through the exploratory results, the hierarchical UI metamodel and process can produce systematic and layered UI models. This can improve the quality and reusability of models.

One brand is taking various forms as it is made applicable to different platforms. As a result users are presented with different interfaces, navigations, and menu structures and therefore are given the burden of relearning. So, in order to minimize such inconveniences and provide consistency of use within multi-platform environments a guide that will increase the service environment predictability is necessary. This paper defines Family UI as to refer to the element of user interface that gives consistency within various platforms belonging to one company band. To propose implications of Family UI, this paper will analyze case studies in which the consistency policies have been applied.

As the usage of smart phones continues to increase, the control UI, which users have to continue to use, sometimes finds a heavy burden on users. Therefore, in this study, we have studied the control user interface structure along with the theoretical background of the control user interface, and we have studied the role and usage of the control component based on it. Typical commonly used controls are button controls for transmission, selection controls for various selections, link controls for navigation, text controls for inputting characters, indicator controls for feedback on progress, A message control that displays information about warnings and errors, and a window control such as a dialog box. The structure of the control should be designed according to the use of the separated control to help the user efficiently use the control user interface. Based on the analysis of the theoretical usage of representative components belonging to the separated controls, we presented a new and correct way to use the control to improve the user experience. The use of improved control components will help to design the control structure efficiently and to improve the user experience.
