在城市规划的背景下，设计有形用户界面（TUI）系统的兴趣越来越大。然而，很少有人研究这种系统的可用性。在本文中，我们提出了一个观察性研究的合作TUI系统，以检查系统的可用性在城市规划过程中，并调查其对利益相关者的参与和决策的影响。该研究表明，TUI和实物鼓励利益相关者之间的合作和沟通，从而导致更多的信息决策。
There has been an increasing interest in designing tangible user interface (TUI) systems in the context of urban planning. However, little has been done in studying the usability of such systems. In this paper, we present an observational study on a collaborative TUI system to examine the usability of the system in the urban planning process and to investigate its effect on stakeholders’ engagement and decision-making. The study suggests that TUIs and physical objects encourage collaboration and communication among stakeholders, which lead to more informative decisions.
