Project brainstorming from week 1, wed class

We can try to build up our ideas for the projects here, which will be compiled into a document to be submitted by saturday @ 11:59

For each idea, assume a goal of comparing the presented method to a traditional approach, with metrics gathered from actual users

Ideas

-Wiimote as a kiosk-type interface device

• pointing a device at what you want, is it more intuitive than a trackball/mouse/touchscreen?
• accelerometer could be used as well

-No-click gui, actions initiated by hovering or cursor gestures

- Context sensitive 'ring menus, ala Maya or Quick Silver.

Ideas for applications to test these ideas for usability strengths/weaknesses

- Card game, such as solitaire or blackjack
