Multimodal User Interaction for GIS Applications (MUI_GIS)

Zaid Mustafa, Julián C. Flores, José M. Cotos · 2018

The traditional communication methods for GIS applications limit usability and slow down the interaction that happens when using conventional devices such as a mouse and a keyboard. However, the human voice and motion system can naturally create actions through the use of speech or gestures in three dimensions. This paper presents a new human-computer interaction tool called MUI_GIS (multimodal-user interaction for GIS) applications, which uses a synergistic operation of several kinds of input devices in order to allow a natural interaction. The information from the different input devices determines actions/commands of interaction with the software.
