HCI Research and Communication Report: ITECH 5500 Assignment

This report delves into the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), exploring its evolution and impact in the modern technological landscape. It highlights the increasing integration of technology with human tasks, emphasizing the importance of creating effective computer interfaces. The report discusses various applications of HCI, including eye-tracking, iris scanning, voice recognition, and virtual reality, showcasing how these technologies bring machines closer to human interaction. A synthesis matrix is provided, summarizing key research papers and their contributions to the understanding of HCI. The assignment aligns with the ITECH 5500 course, focusing on professional research and communication within an IT context, aiming to enhance critical awareness of previous research and develop skills in synthesizing information and scholarly documentation.

Human Computer Interaction (HCI)
In this era, human are currently bound with technologies all around. Technology is going so far
by innovating itself. Creating a good computer interface and connecting to real world is
something which can ease human tasks. (Baecker, 2014) In real world, computer system are
proficient in telling us the exact things what we actually need. All it needs is to program those
systems for the specific task. (Fogarty & Baker & Hudson, 2005)Nowadays, HCI has numerous
applications; computer system can be programmed in such a way we can do eye tracking instead
of using mouse, scanning iris to withdrawal money through ATMs, voice recognition interface
which can process the natural language and based on this Amazon has his alexa software which
functions according to user voice, virtual reality is one of the existing technology which gives
user a good experience and teaches us how HCI can be implemented better and better. This
examples show how HCI has brought machines as close to human as possible. (Galletta &
Zhang, 2006)
