Research And Design On Interactive Kiosk Of Digital Beijing

According to the spread of internet and the development of wireless communication methods, great challenges and opportunities arise in the area of human-computer interaction. And the utility enters information age. Interactive kiosk will make an attractive and harmony experience for users.On the condition of experience economy, design brings people more living feeling and experience instead of function and form."Machine Oriented", the value of design in industry economy has been represented by "People Oriented". Through the research of Human-Computer Interface of interactive kiosk, the interactive mode will be changed from human-computer to human-robot.First, the concept of interactive design is introduced in this paper, and followed by the history of interaction interface. The aim of interactive design is to meet users’goals. It involves a lot of disciplines. However, most of the current research relies on the visual design based on "Windows system" and "Macintosh system", instead of paying attention to the interaction design of kiosk itself. Moreover, there still lacks systematical theory conclusion which may support and guide the design of interactive kiosk design. And the goal of this article is to introduce an interaction design methods of interactive kiosk, which may help design the tangible user interface to support the more natural interaction between users and technology.In this article, according to the analysis of the design concepts of user-centered interaction, users in the interface design are defined and classified. The classification method is introduced. Then user models are classified based on the education level and the influence of user diversity. And interaction design flow of interactive kiosk is discussed. At last, the paper took the interactive prototype "Digital Beijing interactive kiosk" as example to introduce the interaction design concept which combines both hardware and software.
