HUMAN COMPUTER

INTERACTION IN 2020


2/15

ABSTRACT

The question persists and indeed grows whether thecomputer will make it easier or harder for human beings toknow who they really are, to identify their real problems, to

respond more fully to beauty, to place adequate value onlife, and to make their world safer than it now is.

INTRODUCTION:

The world we live in has become suffused with computer technologies. They have createdchange and continue to create change. It is not only on our desktops and in our hands thatthis is manifest; it is in virtually all aspects of our lives, in our communities, and in the widersociety of which we are a part.

What will our world be like in 2020? Digital technologies will continue to proliferate,enabling ever more ways of changing how we live. But will such developments improve thequality of life, empower us, and make us feel safer, happier and more connected? Or willliving with technology make it more tiresome, frustrating, angstridden, and security-driven?

What will it mean to be human when everything we do is supported or augmented

by technology? What role can researchers, designers and computer scientists have inhelping to shape the future?

2. Transformations in Interaction:

2.1 Human Values in the Face of Change: The changes we have described inPart 1 in computers, individual lives and society can be viewed as examples of five

major transformations which are irrevocably altering the relationship we have withcomputers.

The characteristics that make us human will

continue to be manifest in our relationship with technology

2.2 The End of Interface Stability: Electronic sensing jewelry (a concept fromPhilips Design) is based on stretchable, flexible electronic substrates that integrateenergy supply, sensors, actuators, and display.

2.3 The Growth of Techno-Dependency: As new technologies become moreinterwoven into our everyday activities, we will become more dependent on the new

capabilities they provide, often to the point where we will find it hard to imagine howthings could be done any other way.

2.4 The Growth of Hyper-Connectivity: The ability to communicate throughmultiple interactive devices will continue to grow and diversify as we approach 2020. Weare already starting to see a transformation .

Mobile phones can help to isolate us in a crowd.

Alternatively, they can mobilise the masses, for better or worse


10/15

2.5 The End of the Ephemeral: Another major transformation that is taking place isour expanding digital footprint. More and more ephemeral aspects of our lives, which used

only to be stored in human memory, are being recorded as digital memories.

The digital crowd is likely to play a more

influential role in shaping the human values of the future

2.6 The Growth of Creative Engagement: The new generation of technologies,including ubiquitous computing and Web 2.0, is enabling more creative uses ofcomputing than ever before.

Managing expanding digital footprints

3.HCI: Looking Forward:

3.1 The Way Forward: Since its inception in the 1980s, HCI has been primarilyconcerned with designing more usable computer systems, be it the computer desktop,the VCR, the Web, or the mobile phone. It takes bad designs and shows how toimprove them.

3.2 Extending the Research and Design Cycle: User-centred design andresearch typically follows an iterative cycle, comprising four fundamental processes inwhich we study, design, build and evaluate technology). Different terms may be used,but fundamentally the four stages involve the same kinds of activities.


12/15

This is a 5-stage process.

Stage 1: UnderstandStage 2: StudyStage 3: DesignStage 4: BuildStage 5: Evaluate

The delivery of one value will haveimplications for other values


13/15

3.3 Three Case Studies: To illustrate how HCI research can embrace human valuesthroughout the various phases and to show the benefits of doing so, three case studies

are presented here. Each explores both the positive and negative possibilitiesthat the technology of concern can engender.

Case Study 1: Trading versus trafficking contentCase study 2: Tracking versus surveillance in familiesCase study 3: The value of augmenting human memory

Values such as reassurance, togetherness and enchantment call for different

ways of thinking about how we design technology

4. Recommendations:

Digital technologies have become a central feature of the 21st century and willbecome an even more fundamental and critical part of how we live. Our relationshipwith technology is changing and these changes raise fundamental questions aboutwhat we anticipate of computer systems in the future.

What is clear is that digital technology in the world of 2020 will be as differentfrom today as technology twenty five years ago was different from what we have now.These shifts and transformations in technology, and in our judgments about what wewant computing to do, pose fundamental questions to those involved in Human-Computer Interaction.
