Towards the validation of a method for quantitative mobile usability testing based on desktop eyetracking
Cira Cuadrat Seix, Montserrat Sendín Veloso, Juan José Rodríguez Soler · 2012
With the fast evolution in the development of applications for mobile devices, the study and adequacy of usability evaluation methodologies in this context is becoming an increasingly demand. Current techniques and equipment particularly adapted to these types of interfaces, such as specific eyetracking equipment for mobile devices, are trying to offer a solution to contexts related to mobility. However, due to known physical restrictions, especially the limited size of displays, data registered by this kind of equipment is limited to qualitative data. These restrictions are especially strong when collecting data from eyetracking techniques. Further study is needed to assess usability in mobile interfaces quickly and comprehensively.
