Audiovisual User Interfaces for Multisensory Design
11:30About presentation
The concept of Audiovisual User Interfaces (AVUI) links interaction, sound and image, building upon the concept of Graphical User Interface (GUI) by adding interconnected audio and visuals. By integrating interrelated sonic and visual feedback, reacting to user interactions, AVUIs can lead to more usable, playful, informative and captivating UIs, compared to a traditional GUI – particularly in use cases where accessibility and/or engagement are determinant.
