Empowering Our Community Through Human-Computer Interaction
__Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)
A multidisciplinary field that bridges computer science and psychology, focusing on designing technology to enhance interaction between humans and computers.
HCI initially centered around desktop computers, it has now expanded to cover various forms of information technology design. Researchers in HCI study human-computer interactions and develop technologies that enable novel engagement.(1)
Understanding the Intersection of HCI, UX, and UI
Design within Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) goes beyond physical devices. It encompasses both the tangible and digital aspects of our interactions
UX
We strive to make interactions enjoyable, not just functional. Understanding user emotions and context is crucial.
UI
UI design focuses on the visual and interactive elements of a digital product
Psychology enriches HCI by unraveling the complexities of human behavior, emotions, and social interactions. As technology evolves, our understanding of these factors continues to shape user experiences and interface design.
