The main concern of Interaction designers is to develop interactive products which are usable and easily acceptable by users. To start with we need to identify the weaknesses and strengths of different interactive systems thus we can begin to understand what it means for something to usable or not. Designing usable products thus requires a designer to understand who is going to use it and what will be the use of the product. Another key point is to understand the kind of activities people will do while interacting with the product.
Interaction designer should think around optimizing the user’s interaction with a system, environment or product to match user’s activities. You can also use basic principles of Interaction design and can also involve users to make better choices. This will involve–
- To identify what people are good and bad at,
- Considering what might help people with the way they currently do things,
- Thinking innovative ways to provide quality user experiences,
- Involve users to understand what people,
- Using “tried and tested” user-based techniques.
Essentially, the process of Interaction design involves few basic activities–
- Identifying the needs of users and establishing the requirements,
- Create alternative design meeting those requirements,
- Creating different versions of your design which can be compared and assessed,
- Evaluating what has been designed in effort to meet the requirements.
There are few basic goals of a good design which designers should stick with–
- Effective usage,
- Easy to learn,
- Easy to remember,
- Useful.
