What is the user interface?
The user interface (UI) encompasses everything designed into an information device with which a human being may interact. That includes display screen, keyboard, mouse, light pen, the appearance of a desktop, illuminated characters, help messages, and how an application program or a Web site invites interaction and responds. The user interface comprises the total “user experience,” which may include the aesthetic appearance of the device, response time, and the content that is presented to the user.
ProMap Composer, a powerful Windows GUI, allows complete control of mapping, blending and hot-spot compensation using a WYSIWYG editing environment. Mapping is defined by a B-Spline mesh pre-calculated to match the optical geometry. It may then be finely adjusted for precise alignment to the observer’s eye position. A portable laptop control handset is used to make all adjustments.
