Evaluating the Effects of Feedback Type on Older Adults' Performance in Mid-Air Pointing and Target Selection

Explore a conference talk examining the impact of different feedback types on older adults' performance in mid-air pointing and target selection. Delve into the findings of a target acquisition experiment where participants aged 60 and above performed "point-and-select" gestures in mid-air. Discover how the combination of visual and audio feedback affects selection times and error rates. Investigate the influence of target location on screen in relation to both selection time and accuracy. Gain insights into the challenges faced by older users in hands-free pointing techniques and learn about potential solutions to improve their interaction experience with mid-air gesture systems.
