Design-it-yourself gestures may be the key to future
computer interfaces.
A team of experts in human-computer interaction at the
University of St Andrews have found that gesture-based Natural User Interfaces
(used to control televisions, computers and games consoles like the Wii and
Xbox 360) just need the personal touch to make them more effective.
A key question for Natural User Interfaces is whether people
will be able to remember the many gestures recognised by the devices.
