Multimodal user interfaces hold the promise to enable natural and intuitive means of human-machine interaction. But is effort using many sensors rewarded by users - or a single modality sufficient? For an industrial use case weld seam inspection workstation we study three independent (augmented spatial button interaction on (1) workpiece (2) worktable through (3) speech commands) their combination (4). While preferred augmented when comparing modalities, they used all in multimodal...
Multimodal user interfaces promise a natural and intuitive human machine interactions. But is the extra effort for development of complex multi-sensor system justified, or can users also be satisfied with one input modality already? This study investigates interactions in an industrial weld inspection workstation. Three unimodal interfaces, including spatial interaction buttons augmented on workpiece worktable, speech commands, were tested individually multimodal combination. Within...
