Kurzbeschreibung
If you want to get ahead in this new era of interaction design, this is the reference you need. Nintendo's Wii and Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch have made gestural interfaces popular, but until now there's been no complete source of information about the technology. Designing Gestural Interfaces provides you with essential information about kinesiology, sensors, ergonomics, physical computing, touchscreen technology, and new interface patterns -- all you need to know to augment your existing skills in "traditional" web design, software, or product development. Packed with informative illustrations and photos, this book helps you: * Get an overview of technologies surrounding touchscreens and interactive environments * Learn the process of designing gestural interfaces, from documentation to prototyping to communicating to the audience what the product does * Examine current patterns and trends in touchscreen and gestural design * Learn about the techniques used by practicing designers and developers today * See how other designers have solved interface challenges in the past * Look at future trends in this rapidly evolving field Only six years ago, the gestural interfaces introduced in the film Minority Report were science fiction. Now, because of technological, social, and market forces, we see similar interfaces deployed everywhere. Designing Gestural Interfaces will help you enter this new world of possibilities.

Der Anhang mit Fotos von Gesten ist etwas überdimensioniert, ansonsten in bester Dan Saffer Manier umfassend, einleuchtend und erhellend. In Ermangelung von Konkurrenzwerken zwingend einzigartig, sicherlich aber auch darüber hinaus bestens.
Wer Saffer kennt, oder gar einen seiner Workshops besucht hat, findet hier eine gute Zusammenfassung.
Wer Saffer nicht kennt und gestenbasierte Interfaces entwickeln will/darf/soll findet hier alles was er braucht.

Good for beginners and newcomers only
31. Dezember 2008
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
If you have been a designer for the past five years and have some experience with touchscreen or interactive surfaces of one kind or another, then Designing Gestural Interfaces is not for you. This book is best for the beginner as its content is very basic and superficial. There is no deep thinking or insights here. Unfortunately, the occassional good topic is glossed over and your left with only the beginning of an idea.
It's true that designing for gestural interfaces is a relatively new area, but the author presents the reader with general and basic design information that has been known and practiced for many years and not nearly enough useful information about gesture design. For example, in the chapter on Prototyping Interactive Gestures, the author talks about the purpose and value of low-fidelity prototyping, but offers nothing related to gestural UI design; no hints, tips, tricks, pitfalls, solutions, etc. In this regard, I found myself getting frustrated many times throughout the whole book.
In general, the book reads like an introductory design book, a primer of sorts, updated to include gestures. I suspect that within the next year or so, updated versions of this book or even other books / articles will come out that offer much deeper insights. If you're a veteran designer, save your money and spend your time wisely reading other more insightful books.

Good for beginning concepts
29. November 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
There is not one line of code in this book. This text is about how gestures in the air and on surfaces can replace or augment the commands given by mice, keypads, and stylii. It is a broad overview, and contains few concrete details about how you would actually implement such systems in detail. For example, there is no "start to finish" design that is so common in O'Reilly books of this type. The author mainly just goes through what it takes to get your thoughts organized in such a way to design such systems. Each chapter has some very good "further reading" recommendations. You'll come away from this book knowing the issues involved in designing gestural interfaces, but not much more. I guess I was just expecting something meatier. For something meatier but a bit older I would recommend Physical Computing: Sensing and Controlling the Physical World with Computers. The table of contents for this book is not yet included in the product description, so I do that next:

Getting Started with Gestural Interfaces
26. Juli 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
With all the work that is happening in the world of mobile and gaming consoles around the area of gesture and touch I was looking for a book that was interesting and engaging and helped define the rules of engagement for the technologies used.
The book is well written and gives a good overview of touch and gesture design and techniques but does fall a short on the detail I was looking for. The book works well in defining the different types of gestures and their possible uses. Photographs and illustrations back this up and it is a good starting point for those wishing to be informed and learn about these technologies. It would also be a helpful book for starting out designing a touch or gesture application, but I would have liked seen more time spent on exploring how to implement solutions using these techniques.
Overall a good book but would be really suitable for someone at beginner level, it serves well as an introduction but does not go into enough detail for an experienced developer or designer.
