Detailed Description

Computers experts are already talking about technology that conforms to humans rather than humans adapting to technology, where human perception plays an important role in defining the needs and constraints of the user. Researchers are now studying the "human" factor in human-computer interaction and formulating principles under which a system must adapt to the user and guidelines that would help the designer achieve these goals.

Human perception plays an important role in producing visual forms. But still under question are issues like visual design, which is rated very low in matrices compared to functional issues. The project was initiated with an inquiry into a few issues that are still not fully understood by interface designers.
