The publications within “Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing” are primarily proceedings of important conferences, symposia and congresses. They cover significant recent developments in the field, both of a foundational and applicable character. An important characteristic feature of the series is the short publication time and world-wide distribution. This permits a rapid and broad dissemination of research results. ** Indexing: The books of this series are submitted to ISI Proceedings, EI-Compendex, DBLP, SCOPUS, Google Scholar and Springerlink ** More information about this series at http://www.springer.com/series/11156 ã Tareq Ahram Christianne Falc o (cid:129) Editors Advances in Usability, User Experience, Wearable and Assistive Technology Proceedings of the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conferences on Usability and User Experience, Human Factors and Assistive Technology, Human Factors and Wearable Technologies, and Virtual Environments – and Game Design, July 16 20, 2020, USA 123 Editors Tareq Ahram Christianne Falcão Institute for Advanced Catholic University of Pernambuco Systems Engineering BoaVista, Recife, Brazil University of Central Florida Orlando, FL,USA ISSN 2194-5357 ISSN 2194-5365 (electronic) Advances in Intelligent Systems andComputing ISBN978-3-030-51827-1 ISBN978-3-030-51828-8 (eBook) https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-51828-8 ©TheEditor(s)(ifapplicable)andTheAuthor(s),underexclusivelicense toSpringerNatureSwitzerlandAG2020 Thisworkissubjecttocopyright.AllrightsaresolelyandexclusivelylicensedbythePublisher,whether thewholeorpartofthematerialisconcerned,specificallytherightsoftranslation,reprinting,reuseof illustrations, recitation, broadcasting, reproduction on microfilms or in any other physical way, and transmissionorinformationstorageandretrieval,electronicadaptation,computersoftware,orbysimilar ordissimilarmethodologynowknownorhereafterdeveloped.

EntrepreneurshipandCommunicationofDesign Goonetilleke,AmicG.HoandYan Luximon Preface This volume combines the proceedings of four affiliated conferences of the 2020 Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics Conference: the 11th International Conference on Usability & User Experience, the 4th International Conference on Human Factors and Wearable Technologies, the 4th International Conference on HumanFactorsinVirtualEnvironmentsandGameDesignandthe3rdInternational Conference on Human Factors and Assistive Technology. The conference on usability & user experience focuses on strategies for achieving successful interaction with products, tools and technologies. Usable designs are able to accommodate the needs of potential users without requiring costly training. In this context, this book is concerned with emerging ergonomics conceptsin thedesign ofproducts andsystems, andwiththeories andapplications of human factor knowledge for understanding human–system interaction, identi- fyingkeyusabilityissuesandeventuallyimprovingthecorrespondingproductsand systems. The conferences on assistive and wearable technologies focus on the examina- tion of problems in designing and providing assistive devices and services to individuals with disabilities or impairment, to assist mobility, communication, positioning,environmental control anddailyliving. Thus,this bookalsoaddresses awidespectrumoftheoreticalandpracticaltopicsrelatedtoassistiveandwearable technologies. By combining practical experience and academic research, it dis- cusses solutions for adapting to machinery and wearables, and increasing the technology acceptance, effectiveness and efficiency. The conference on human factors in virtual environments and game design focuses on game industry, which has been rapidly expanding in the past decades. The level of complexity in game control interfaces and graphics has increased exponentially,inadditiontothegrowinginterestinintegratingaugmentedrealityin gaming experience. As a result, there is a growing demand for human factors and ergonomics practitioners to improve the users’ engagement in game design. A variety of game designs, applications and study on their usability, as well as on users’engagement,havebeengatheredtogetherinthisbook.Thisbookshowshow vii viii Preface user-centered practices can optimize user experience, thus improving user accep- tance, satisfaction and engagement toward novel products and systems. It addresses professionals, researchers and students in the broad field of human factorsandergonomics,who areespecially interestedinuser-centereddesign,user experience and accessibility of human–machine interfaces, usability and accessi- bility of wearable technologies, game design as well as advanced applications of virtual, augmented and mixed realities. This book is organized into nine sections that focus on the following subject matters: Usability and User Experience Section 1 User Interface and Accessibility Section 2 Usability Evaluation and Interface Design Section 3 Usability and User-Centered Design Section 4 User Experience and Human–machine Interaction Section 5 Usability and User Experience Applications Human Factors and Wearable Technologies Section 6 Wearable Technologies Game Design Section 7 Human Factors in Game Design Section 8 Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Realities Applications Assistive Technology Section 9 Human Factors and Assistive Technology Wehopethisbookisinformative, butevenmore—thatitisthought-provoking. Wehopeitinspires,leadingthereadertocontemplateotherquestions,applications and potential solutions in creating good designs for all. Each section contains research papers that have been reviewed by members of the International Editorial Board.
