Mobile development of applications and equipment is so fast that most operating systems and devices become obsolete after only one year. Currently, four main areas of mobile technology have experienced constant improvements as included in more recent smartphones and tablets. These include additional gestures for better interaction to the human machine, a more intuitive user interface, double views and several windows, as well as the optical recognition of text and human faces.
More human gestures integrated with devices
Microsoft has established a basic gesture set for its Windows 8 user interface on touch screen devices. These static gestures and manipulation include the faucet, the hand and maintain, slide, slide, turn, pinch and stretch. With the speed of development between mobile devices, more humane gestures have been added to this set. These include waving one hand on the screen, a finger hovering on the screen and looking at the screen.
A more intuitive interface
Although eye tracking technology is still far from complete, the detection of the location and the movement of the head and the user’s eyes is one of the advanced features to emerge from the new telephones models. and tablets. Now, a device can detect each time the user detects the screen of the screen and puts a video waiting until the user looks again the screen.
Another intuitive feature is the accelerometer that detects the position of the device both on horizontal and vertical planes. A current example would be the immediate evolution of the orientation of a vertical view to a landscape view when transferring the position of the phone. When the phone is tilted forward or backwards, the page also scrolls up and down depending on the direction.
Dual camera views and multi-window capacities
Most smartphones and tablets now have front and rear cameras. Both cameras can be activated while taking a photo or recording a video. The user takes a self-drawn image using the front camera and adds it to the picture taken by the rear camera. The same can be done with a video. Both cameras are also used during a video call where the front camera displays the appellant’s face and the rear camera displays a view of the caller’s surroundings.
New mobile devices also have the ability to display multiple different application windows. For example, users can open the YouTube application to watch music videos and open the browser to surf the web at the same time. In addition, phones in the same model and the same manufacturer can build a local network and play music or games simultaneously.
Optical drives that recognize faces and text
At first, phones and tablets came out with a QR code identification capability, which is a vector image containing data. Now, devices can actually read text and associate them with dictionary entries. In addition to optical drives, devices can also advance human faces and identify separate features. This facial recognition feature is useful as a safety measure in addition to fingerprint and voice lock analyzes.
