Bernard Champoux’ work
Computer Assisted Iconic Language System (CAILS) TASK: To design an interface supporting iconographic communication.
Representing graphically what the authors had in mind: Interaction model  Interface Paper mockup CAILS’ grammar symbols CAILS’ Lexicon TEXT ICONOGRAPHY
Gathering User Input: Contextual inquiry and Usability tests on paper prototype 1- Communication 2- Interaction 3- Interactivity
Conceptualization
Iterative Design (Desktop)
Iterative Design (PDA)
CAILS evaluation  Participants show a good comprehension of the grammatical functions of the symbols. Words order is not crucial in understanding a CAILS message. Long sentences were more difficult to understand.  for 11 years old participants than university level students.
TASK: Design a touch Interface for a speedy input of conversational capsule .

User Interface Design for Interactive Hardware 3D Browsing with Interactive Data
Too big and heavy Handle (add 17 cm) Four sensors powered two 6 volts batteries. Contextual Inquiry Interviews with users Direct observation Sketching 3D Rendering:  Adapting  the actual device. Suggesting  a potential device. What did I do? Problem with the actual RISPS
Prototypes
Iterative Design: Application Menus
RISP Evaluation Control Fatigue Ease of use
Virtual pen and Paper Interface
Iterative Design: Application Menus
Conceptualization: The CubeRisp.
The Visual Interaction Platform (VIP) VIP 1st generation: First prototype gathers all the required components in order to get to work. Lab prototype. VIP 2nd generation: Second prototype:  Much more “product like”.  Somehow transportable and compact  (questionable). Problem: Out-dated prototypes
What did I do? 1- Initiate a participatory design approach to: Involve end users and stakeholders in the design process. Focus on trying to understand how the end users worked and what their problems were as opposed to strictly apply the specific solutions that they proposed.
2- Action Research: Sketches for Informal peer(s) review(s) What do you think of this?
3- Suggested solutions.  Representation in time and space
4- Picked a solution
5- Design a correct solution.
VIP Final Design. Support work, Not generate it.
A Design Approach for Tangibles User Interface Mentoring and providing expertise in GUI to the students
Introduced my students to an easy 3D drawing software. The James Interaction Techniques For Digital Tables Components Perspective-Based Interaction
A Mode of Interaction for Driver Vehicle Interface (DVI) Representation : A system that allow driver to see the needed information at appropriate time. Control : A mechanism that allow driver to access the needed information at appropriate time.
Proposition: Representation Multifunctional display integrated to the car cockpit
Proposition: Control
