Wow watch this above video it’s inspiring, beautiful and you will know “what we can do with the other senses and sensors”
See how future of communication is changing!! How will emerging technology improve our productivity in the years ahead? What opportunities will arise from evolving trends and global change?
I love the simplicity of User Interface and how its represented, truly.
Think about it. What you can do
Designing for iPad: Reality Check, interesting Article over on iA, Have a look if you are interested in Apple ipad User interfaces insights, tips and samples.
“Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are developing an innovative work environment specialized for the management of emergency responses. A PIE system consists of a combination of novel interactive interfaces that aim to transform the way stakeholders, ranging from first responders to policy makers to the public, engage with each other and with dynamic information.
Watch the above video, which demonstrates how the combination of several technological advances, ranging from life-size immersive data graphs and multi-touch maps, to cool touch-enabled handheld devices for courageous firemen-in-the-field, should augment the interaction with information.”
Very cool, i liked this clean interfaces design but i am not sure how this is practical or in real functional!
Elegant button free mockup, you can see the above video, its a great insight into how we consume magazines.This conceptual video is a corporate collaborative research project initiated by Bonnier R&D into the experience of reading magazines on handheld digital devices. It illustrates one possible vision for digital magazines in the near future.
The concept aims to capture the essence of magazine reading, which people have been enjoying for decades: an engaging and unique reading experience in which high-quality writing and stunning imagery build up immersive stories.
The concept uses the power of digital media to create a rich and meaningful experience, while maintaining the relaxed and curated features of printed magazines. It has been designed for a world in which interactivity, abundant information and unlimited options could be perceived as intrusive and overwhelming.
I would like to hear from you, your experiences, what you like to see in upcoming digital reading experiences. Do you really think Apple ipad can be a game changer in industry! Do people really love reading magazines in handheld digital devices?
He talks about the considerations and importance of Mobile RIA, how your app provides the most compelling experience possible to the user? and shared some of the great tips for achieving it.
“The opportunities and limitations of the mobile experience have been in flux for the last several years. At some points it seemed that browsers would become the primary means of delivering content. Then the development of “app stores” came to define what is expected of a mobile experience. Largely, these trends were shaped by the technologies available at the time. This has been especially true when it comes to delivering mobile experiences through browsers. Initially, due to network limitations, only very stripped-down WAP-style versions of websites were possible. Then full HTML browsers offered the promise of accessing the same desktop websites from mobile devices. However, while desktop websites offer a higher degree of richness, they are more difficult to navigate on a device.
With the proliferation of smartphones, many sites are now offering HTML sites that are specifically designed for mobile devices. While these sites offer an improvement over WAP sites, I believe there is an opportunity to build sites that deliver the richness of immersive desktop experiences that users expect, but are tailored for mobile devices.”
Now we have the power of Flash 10.1 on various new devices. So its interesting and long way to go.
Have a look to this popular Spotify music application which attracts me for various reasons like unified user experience on multiple mobile platforms and clean User Interface. See how easy it is to access your favorite music on Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, iphone and other mobile phones powered by TAT.
“Spotify offers you legal and free access to a huge library of music. All you need to do is create an account and download our streaming music player.” I also like this little spotify concept animation video which you can see above is simply amazing
Few important things to consider when you design an User Interface for mobile device
Scale your app across multiple platforms
Deliver an attractive unified user experience.
Efficiently handle different screen sizes and form factors
“Dual Drift is a next generation, dual display mobile UI. This TAT Cascades powered UI shows stunning visual effects, 3D graphics and HDMI video output. Dual screens create exiting opportunities for great user experiences and more dynamic UIs with fast actions, adaptive content focus and dual multi-touch. A fully Open GL|ES 2.0 enabled UI running on 2 x WVGA screens, using animated 3D meshes and shader effects like light sources, dynamic colors, reflections and shadows.
“Interesting concept but not sure when we could see devices with this kind of setup, what carriers, manufacturer, or time frames would be involved at this point.!!
Go ahead and stare the user interface of the Windows Phone 7 Series deserves it. That’s the reaction of people at Mobile World Conference in Barcelona. This new holistic design system that brings together form and function based on key principles - informing every aspect of the phone.
I like the typography and clean intuitive rich User interface which creates the simplicity feeling and unrivaled mobile experience. With a holistic design that brings together web content, applications and services into a single view, phones worships you now, not the other way around.
I like to play with this phone in hand to see the real time experience and how the form factor and performance is?
What you think about it. I like to know your comments about your current phone User interface, are you really satisfied with what you have it?
Check out the above video to get a first-hand look at the latest Windows Phone 7
Another beautiful User interface for mobile by TAT, experimental but displaying information in beautiful ways is a huge challenge! Look in to the above video, you will know why i am speaking about it Day by day data visualization is getting big in picture and many ways to look around them. Here we also need to put our thoughts on how we can make complex things simple to the user. It doesn’t matter what technologies we are using it ultimately final user experience matters a lot.
“We are used to busy idle screens. Information such as missed calls, received messages, widgets on top of your customizable background wallpaper is all trying to get your attention. This is a new take where we go from very precise information to the idle screen as an entity, an abstract map of information. The idle screen will paint and evolve during the day and once you’ve learned its language you will get a whole lot of information just by giving it a glance.”
Tons of weather app out there and if you like to get notice you definitely need to design with the fresh approach with beautiful User Interface. Outside is just beautiful in terms of impeccable attention in visual design as well as interaction design. When i saw first time there video have one words, wow! I really love this
Their human-centric approach manifests itself mostly in the importance they place on user-defined notifications based on certain conditions. What’s so wonderful about this is that this is the kind of stuff that you really care about 90% of the time – weather changes that will affect your behavior. via everydayux

I’ve recently stumbled upon an interesting interface design by teamlab, the way they designed and looked into the natural dynamics of touch interface is amazing. I liked it personally very much such an amazingly rich, engaging experience that’s just bursting with possibility for further creativity.
“Actface” is a mobile device designed to create new contents using meta information of users behaviors.”
“Actface Rhythm is not a phone designed to produce music, but a phone that produces an internal rhythm, a moving image that is produced through the everyday use and the rhythm of pressing the keys. We regularly press keys to make a call, and to send a mail, and we considered this to be a natural rhythm. We designed actface Rhythm’s interface to produce an ink painting world that is created by the user, and as the phone is used the ink painting continues to develop and move with the rhythm you create.”
Via Mark, The LTE Connected Car is a platform for in-car entertainment, navigation, management and services. At MAX 2009 QNX won the mobile and devices award because of their excellence in working with the Flash Platform. Working with the geniuses at Alcatel Lucent QNX have enabled LTE connectivity (read: 4G) into the car to prep for a future of wireless networking at 100x the bandwidth of 3G (100Mbps in theory).
The platform interface is based on Adobe Flash Lite 3.1 running on the RTOS QNX platform with all manner of extensions for GPS, Bluetooth, video playback and even integration into the dashboard.
I hope people will have an awesome experience in the car with new interface design and your car will be always connected
See how Paramount is successfully using Flash Platform technologies to take its content to multiple devices, resulting in new revenue streams and greater customer reach.
Via Serge Jespers, Intel’s Developer Forum Engadget recorded a demo of an Intel (an Open Screen Project partner) based set-top box running a Flash based user interface and Flash based applications. The heart of this set-top box is Intel’s CE 3100 Media Processor which according to Engadget “combines an 800MHz Pentium M core with a proprietary video processing core all on one chip. That’s about as much power as a 1.2GHz Atom”.
The video demonstrates the Flash UI on top of a Linux operating system. It shows how you can add Flash based applications on top of a video signal coming from the tuner and run full screen Flash based applications. The future is bright for the Flash Platform! Flash on!
Looks like an early stage development, and lot of work is required in User interface to make them smart!!.
Act face is a mobile device interface designed by “Teamlab” to create new contents using meta information of users behaviors.!
Some user behaviors like:
You become addicted to your mobile device, As its screen changes and as you use it more, it adapts to your situation.
You feel good touching your mobile device, Simply pressing the keys is fun in itself, And you keep wanting more. You start to enjoy the interaction with your mobile device, And it changes the purpose of using the phone, just touching the phone brings you enjoyment.
How many times will you open it. To see if any changes have occurred Will you ever be able to let go of your phone?…
You feel good touching your mobile phone, everyday use of your phone become a rhythm, a phone with a surface of rhythmic ink painting.
Concept:
Actface Rhythm is not a phone designed to produce music, but a phone that produces an internal rhythm, a moving image that is produced through the everyday use and the rhythm of pressing the keys. We regularly press keys to make a call, and to send a mail, and we considered this to be a natural rhythm. We designed actface Rhythm’s interface to produce an ink painting world that is created by the user, and as the phone is used the ink painting continues to develop and move with the rhythm you create.
“This is not just a new screen design, By adding a secondary purpose in using the phone, we have experimented in a new style of interaction between human and mobile devices.”
