What is Interaction Design??
Interaction design is the practice of designing interactive digital products, environments, systems, and services. defined by Wikipedia.
Interaction design aims to define and facilitate interaction between human beings by means of a product or a service. It focuses on the possibilities to create and encourage behavior facilitating an exchange between people. defined by Use-design.com.
We can therefore see interaction design on two levels:
. either between a user and a system;
. or between different users, in which case we speak about human interaction or “social interaction”.
Interaction Design is basically interaction between human and computer as defined the words itself, Interaction Design is developed to make user's life easy, effective & enjoyable.
Our daily life is filled up with products w/interaction design, for example: surfing internet on a smartphone, rushing assignments on a laptop, etc.
What is Human Computer Interaction??
HCI? Can be defined as Hydrochloric Acid in Chemistry but not in Interaction Design. HCI = Human Computer Interaction
Human-Computer Interaction, as defined by Wikipedia, it is the study, planning and design of the interaction between people (users) and computers. It often regarded as the intersection of computer science, behavioral sciences, design and several other fields of study. As what I had learnt in Human Factors and Universal Usability class before, HCI is all about human in the end. It is a study of how human interact with the machine or so-called computer. And it is a study on the purpose to invent new products and reinvent existing products to fulfill user satisfactions and lastly to produce an user-centered design.
