Abstract

Age-related impairments influence the way people use computer systems and devices. Research in the HCI and usability domains has offered guidelines and methods that guide the design and the evaluation of applications targeting the steadily growing aging population. This chapter presents the RADIO GUI emphasizing on the interaction and user interface guidelines that guided the design of the End-User GUI for controlling the robot via a multi-touch device. This part of the RADIO system has been evaluated by two usability experts using heuristic evaluation and a set of guidelines for elderly users using applications on multi-touch devices. In addition, the system was evaluated by users executing specific scenarios that were eye-tracked in order to examine recognizability and memorability of icons, as well as readability and understandability of textual content.
