No interaction is the best interaction

"Interaction design is out of control and they seem to dominate everything." "said Golden Krishna, a senior designer at Samsung Laboratories. At the SXSW conference, he repeated his design tenet:

Krishna "Noui" as the primary design principle. In his opinion, designers always want to get better understanding of mechanical usage through excellent interactive design. Fact Designers should think of daily life as a convenient and leading way of thinking about how to "hide" the interactive design so that it melts into life rather than making it hard to understand machinery. "What we want to do is invent an oven where users can enjoy a Youtube show while baking cookies," he said. But many people are putting the cart before the horse and designing complex apps for the open door action that can be solved in one step. ”

For example, if you have my BMW app on your iPhone, you'll find that you need 13 steps to unlock the door:

1. Walk to the door;

2. Take out the iPhone from the bag;

3. Light the screen;

4. Slide "Slide" key;

5. Enter the lock screen password;

6. Find my BMW icon in a bunch of apps;

7. Find my BMW, click on the icon;

8. Wait for application to load;

9. Stare at the screen and think about how to use it;

10. Look for the "Unlock door" button in the menu;

11. Click "Unlock Door" button;

12. The door is unlocked;

13. Open the door.

"Is my BMW application really better than a car key?" -No, it lowers our efficiency. Is there a positive example? There, Mercedes has produced a car, as long as you close to it, it can automatically detect the keys in your pocket, immediately open the door, like automatic door.

His second principle was that computers were born for human beings and should be made to serve humanity, not vice versa. In other words, if the computer says to you-"Input error: Your password must have 18,770 digits." The 30689 types of passwords you've used before can no longer be reused. "is inhumane." The computer should make an error in human language, or automatically fix errors, just as Goodyear tires can automatically inflate and move on as they leak.

The third principle is the adaptive system. For example, thermostat, which can consciously adjust the temperature according to the changes in the environment, you do not even need an interactive interface to manipulate it. The "Interaction layer" is hidden and becomes the inner structure. such as airbags and automatic shift, these today seem accustomed to the design, have been in the technical field set off a huge wave.

"Google is very close to this goal. "In just a few steps, Google can make it easy for you to do what you want to do," says Krishna. Its advantage is the accumulation of a large number of user data, as long as the analysis of precision, it can produce value.

So in the future we will enter a world full of adaptive devices, so that all people lose their intelligence and become the Machine of the science fiction "Time"?—— "no, it won't." Not at least for now. Krishna said, "I hope technology can help people solve the tedious things, let us more freely, more focused on what we like to do." ”
