Natural user interfaces: Why we need better model-worlds, not better gestures

Christian Jetter, Jens Gerken, Harald Reiterer

Abstract

We introduce our view of the relation between symbolic gestures and manipulations in multi-touch Natural User Interfaces (NUI). We identify manipulations not gestures as the key to truly natural interfaces. Therefore we suggest that future NUI research should be more focused on designing visual workspaces and model-world interfaces that are especially appropriate for multi-touch manipulations.
