User Interfaces Of the NowFuture

bumptop.jpgUI is one of my favorite topics - as I am pretty fed up with the user interface experience on personal computers these days. The days of the mouse keyboard combo are counted without a doubt - at least after a certain multitouch product that hit the market big this year.
I have been seeing a lot of research into modern unkonventional user interface studies that work with multitouch or 3d desktop representations or photogrammetry exploration over the last year and so I am quite happy that I donīt have to do the roundup of them but another side did that already :) As far as I can see this is the top of the crop of modern interface ideas that have the ability to make it to the mass market - so I think there could be even more radical departures - its cyperspace after all...

My personal favorite - after the awesome multitouch stuff (that is not from microsoft) is the 3d desktop - pair the 3d desktop with multitouch and you have a pretty working novel interface. Now they just need to invent an fingerprintproof glass surface...

PS: I am very happy that UserInterfaceDesign has become a darling of the techreporters lately - that means this is coming big time and it could not come soon enough..
