传统的GUI应用程序对有形交互的支持有限,因为大多数应用程序没有被编程为支持有形输入,而且大多数输入设备不提供触觉反馈。为了解决这一限制,我们引入了GUI机器人,这是一个软件框架,使开发人员能够将现成的机器人重新用作有形输入和触觉输出设备,并将它们连接到未经修改的桌面应用程序。我们介绍了GUI机器人框架,并提出了几个概念验证应用程序,包括触觉滚轮,力反馈游戏控制器,3D鼠标和自动驾驶通知机器人。为了评估GUI机器人是否可以用于现有应用程序的有形界面原型,我们进行了一项用户研究,其中开发人员为两个应用程序创建了定制的有形界面。研究参与者能够在不到一个小时的时间内为这些应用程序创建有形的用户界面。GUI机器人允许开发人员轻松扩展具有有形输入和触觉输出的应用程序。
Traditional GUI applications provide limited support for tangible interaction, as most applications are not programmed to support tangible input, and most input devices do not provide haptic feedback. To address this limitation, we introduce GUI Robots, a software framework that enables developers to repurpose off-the-shelf robots as tangible input and haptic output devices, and to connect them to unmodified desktop applications. We introduce the GUI Robots framework and present several proof-of-concept applications, including a haptic scroll wheel, force feedback game controllers, a 3D mouse, and a self-driving notification robot. To evaluate whether GUI Robots can be used to prototype tangible interfaces for existing applications, we conducted a user study in which developers created customized tangible interfaces for two applications. Study participants were able to create tangible user interfaces for these applications in less than an hour. GUI Robots allows developers to easily extend applications with tangible input and haptic output.
