-
- The category HUMAN INTERFACE TECHNOLOGY
- includes some of the most exciting products and organizations
- included in this guide. The field of human-computer interfacing
- is showing the most significant advancements in the world of
- high technology. Now that computer systems have evolved
- where their speed of operation can support a reasonable level of
- interactivity, mankind is considering new ways to communicate
- with these systems.
-
- Novel concepts such as gesture recognition, body tracking,
- stereo head mounted displays, pen-based input panels and
- video scene analysis have been demonstrated as valid and
- exciting ways to drive complex systems.
-
- This category includes a cornucopia of products that we have
- been keeping track of and yet we believe that there have been
- many major omissions. The field of human factors, new input
- devices and technology for the disabled has mounted a furious
- pace in the release of exciting new products.
-
- This category has a wide divergence of products and services
- that either are directly involved with human-computer interfacing
- or utilize such interfaces to provide an application specific
- service or product. Many of the products listed are a blend of
- various technologies and other categories as well.
-
- We wish that this guide contained photographs of many of the
- listed products as they are so incredible to see and even more
- fun to put on and play in! This category alone could probably fill
- a whole guide if properly researched over time.
-
- If you believe that you have a product or technology that should
- be included in this category, send us information or call us and
- we will be happy to consider inclusion in the next revision of the
- guide.
