{{{#!html <a name="notmobile"> </a> }}} ----- == Not Desktop, But Not Quite Mobile == Though the patterns in Designing Mobile Interfaces are supposed to be general enough to apply to kiosks, telematics, 10-foot Ui, etc. and my touch research originally was also, experts in those fields insist they just aren't the same. I have given in and in the interest of increasing knowledge, am going to start linking to the good stuff in related domains. If you know of a good info source for any of these, tell me about it and I'll add it. * '''Wearables''' * [[Wearables]] * '''Kiosks''' even if they are made by strapping an iPad to the wall, have different context, and different environmentally-derived interactions. Design them differently. * [[http://www.studioiq.com.au/blog/designing-software-for-kiosks|Designing Software for Kiosks]] by Studio IQ. Good tips. Keep bugging them, and maybe we'll get a full repository of info out of them. * [[http://www.uxmatters.com/mt/archives/2013/08/designing-intuitive-point-of-interest-and-point-of-sale-touch-interfaces.php|Designing Intuitive Point-of-Interest and Point-of-Sale Touch Interfaces]] * '''10-foot-UI''' is any interactive experience viewed from a distance. The usual assumption is a TV in a living room. Smart TVs have brought this out of the game console, and made it more mainstream. Your website is getting viewed at 10 foot range, in group settings. * [[http://www.bbc.co.uk/gel/tv/device-considerations/designing-for-tv/introduction|Global Experience Language - TV]] by the BBC - Style guides and many guidelines and principles for TV graphics and interactive TV. * [[https://medium.com/building-for-android-tv|Building for Android TV: Because sometimes documentation is not enough.]] by Sebastiano Gottardo * [[http://51degrees.mobi/Blog/TabId/553/ArtMID/1641/ArticleID/184/Which-TV-Screen-Size-is-Most-Popular-in-the-US.aspx|TV Screen Sizes]] by popularity of Web viewing, September 2013 * [[Large displays]] some thoughts I am putting together with a manufacturer of displays.

So, continuing the bad tradition of confusing UI with UX. * '''Games''' No matter what they are on, game design is a bit different. Different enough I did not cover it in anything else in this book.

I have also used an Occulus Rift and it. Is. Awesome. AR and VR is maybe going to happen and we need to not be surprised by it and muddle through this transition. We need standards. Now. * [[Augmented Reality Standards and Examples]] that I have gathered * [[http://www.w3.org/community/ar/|W3C Working Group on AR Standards]] ----- == Speaking Engagments, Presentations, Webcasts... == Eric works in Sydney, Australia.

Fingers, Touch & People
If there's anything I'm the expert on now, it's how people hold and touch their mobile phones and tablets. I'm trending towards fully writing a smallish book on it. I am working on it over hereabouts, but since it'll be a mess for a long while, just check out the Touch overview page for the most current complete articles, presentations, videos, guidelines and references.
