Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human factors considerations are increasingly being incorporated into the product design process. Users are seen more as being important factors in the overall look and usability of products than just as passive users. We are now treated as cognitive and physical components of the person/product system. The author, who is one of the leading lights in the field of cognitive ergonomics, looks at approaches that assume that if a task can be accomplished with a reasonable degree of efficiency and within acceptable levels of comfort, then the product can be seen as fitting to the user. In this book it is argued that in practice these approaches can be dehumanizing. People are more than merely physical and cognitive processors. They have hopes, fears, dreams, values and aspirations, indeed these are the very things that make us human. Designing Pleasurable Products looks both at and beyond usability, considering how products can appeal to use holistically, leading to products that are a joy to own.

Book excerpt: The last five years have seen a major paradigm shift in the role of human factors in product design. Previously this was seen as pertaining almost exclusively to product usability, but new recognition is being given to "pleasure-based" human factors. This emphasizes the holistic nature of the experience of person-product interaction. While traditio
Book Synopsis Seductive Interaction Design by : Stephen P. Anderson
Download or read book Seductive Interaction Design written by Stephen P. Anderson and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2011-06-13 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when you’ve built a great website or app, but no one seems to care? How do you get people to stick around long enough to see how your service might be of value? In Seductive Interaction Design, speaker and author Stephen P. Anderson takes a fresh approach to designing sites and interactions based on the stages of seduction. This beautifully designed book examines what motivates people to act. Topics include: AESTHETICS, BEAUTY, AND BEHAVIOR: Why do striking visuals grab our attention? And how do emotions affect judgment and behavior? PLAYFUL SEDUCTION: How do you create playful engagements during the moment? Why are serendipity, arousal, rewards, and other delights critical to a good experience? THE SUBTLE ART OF SEDUCTION: How do you put people at ease through clear and suggestive language? What are some subtle ways to influence behavior and get people to move from intent to action? THE GAME OF SEDUCTION: How do you continue motivating people long after the first encounter? Are there lessons to be gained from learning theories or game design? Principles from psychology are found throughout the book, along with dozens of examples showing how these techniques have been applied with great success. In addition, each section includes interviews with influential web and interaction designers.

Download or read book Emotional Design written by Don Norman and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2007-03-20 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why attractive things work better and other crucial insights into human-centered design Emotions are inseparable from how we humans think, choose, and act. In Emotional Design, cognitive scientist Don Norman shows how the principles of human psychology apply to the invention and design of new technologies and products. In The Design of Everyday Things, Norman made the definitive case for human-centered design, showing that good design demanded that the user's must take precedence over a designer's aesthetic if anything, from light switches to airplanes, was going to work as the user needed. In this book, he takes his thinking several steps farther, showing that successful design must incorporate not just what users need, but must address our minds by attending to our visceral reactions, to our behavioral choices, and to the stories we want the things in our lives to tell others about ourselves. Good human-centered design isn't just about making effective tools that are straightforward to use; it's about making affective tools that mesh well with our emotions and help us express our identities and support our social lives. From roller coasters to robots, sports cars to smart phones, attractive things work better. Whether designer or consumer, user or inventor, this book is the definitive guide to making Norman's insights work for you.

Book Synopsis Pervasive Design by : Håkan Gulliksson
Download or read book Pervasive Design written by Håkan Gulliksson and published by Håkan Gulliksson. This book was released on with total page 653 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Services and products are increasingly composed of interconnected computerized things with embedded sensors and interaction capabilities. This trend is evident also in everyday objects and tools and is rapidly changing the way we live our lives. Design work and designers have to keep up with this development and adapt both thinking and tools. The problem is no longer just to design a physical object or interact with a single computational device and design is not even limited to the service embedding the device. Design needs to include all of the above while, importantly, also taking the particular context of use into account. This book presents a framework and a number of tools from a systems perspective that will help the designer take the step from designing a thing or a web site to designing a context aware pervasive service. As a first basis for this, three complementary interactors; Human, Information and Thing, along with the interactions they enable are introduced. This basis is used to infuse a way of thinking on pervasive services that is reapplied also to groups and joint ventures. Services are thoroughly introduced in the book along with their support, ranging from networked infrastructure for communication to cognitive by artificial intelligence. The design process is introduced by a discussion on the goals for design. Usability, value based design and meaningful user experiences are surveyed as guides for better designs. Beginning with the resultant understanding, the design process is staged using the levels of service design, requirement analysis, concept, information, interaction, and appearance design. Relevant tools and an outline of the possible design space of mobile and pervasive applications are given for each level, and the design work is framed by an overall story-based approach. In total the book consists of 658 pages, 112 figures and 218 illustrations. Both text and ideas have improved from the third edition. One year Weiser. Håkan Gulliksson is a lecturer on Interaction technology and Mobile design at Umeå University Sweden. He has been the coordinator for the Master of Science program in Interaction and Design for more than ten years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful interaction with products, tools and technologies depends on usable designs, accommodating the needs of potential users and does not require costly training. In this context, this book is concerned about emerging concepts, theories and applications of human factors knowledge focusing on the discovery and understanding of human interaction with products and systems for their improvement. The book is organized into four sections that focus on the following subject matters: • Usability Methods and Tools • Theoretical Issues in Usability • Usability in Web Environment • Miscellaneous In the section Usability Methods and Tools, studies related with new and improved methods and tools for the advancement in the efficiency of the usability studies is reported. In this context, this book provides studies, which cover everything from checklists and heuristics development to kaizen and biometrics measurement techniques. Also, the use of tools, like eye tracker, virtual reality and augmented reality is discussed. The section Theoretical Issues in Usability concentrates on theorical approaches of usability that allow justifying the impact of usability in our lives. Review studies about the importance of usability and connections between ergonomics and virtual reality were reported. General approaches raised the concepts of modeling and simulation to explain changes in human performance and accidents. The section Usability in Web Environment concentrates on studies associated with the use of the Internet environment and mainly discusses the development of new services and creates social communities. The section Miscellaneous shows various studies that focus on aesthetic, affective and emotional design, corporate and inclusive design.
