[Abstract]

Abstract – Owning to the rapid development of multimodal interfaces, a gap may exist among introduction of technology, facilitating creativity and systematic design process, and is likely to emerge in ubiquitous smart home environments. This paper aims to study closely the development of body-based interaction style, and to reveal the effects of a wearable computer vision tracker on human performance based on implementation of a proposed systematic evaluation approach. As a result, it is indicated that the wearable computer vision tracker has a great impact on its sensor system. Other disadvantages also include greater arm and shoulder fatigue, longer cursor movement distance, longer time of movement and target-re-entrance in comparison with a mouse based on two-dimensional graphic user interface. Further design will be taken into considerations.
