Multimodal interaction for CAMI systèmes (design methods)

This multidisciplinary project (HCI and CAMI) focuses on interaction between the surgeon and Computer-Asssisted Surgery systems. Such systems provide information to enrich the way the surgeon interact with her/his natural environment. This project aims at designing usable systems, and preventing the ad-hoc design driven by technology. Applying our method, several interaction techniques can be easily defined and combined. The designer and the surgeon can choose the most appropriate techniques. In a case study, this method is used to create some innovative interaction techniques using a specific display device: a mini-screen (see picture).
