Abstract

Mobile phones are increasingly becoming pervasive in India. Every month approximately 5 millions new users are added to the ever growing mobile population. However, in India, for a large group of people mobile phones are the first and only interactive digital media they directly operate and experience. A majority of these phones are based on an interaction paradigm that is directly adopted from the realm of computers. We believe, because of this there is huge gap between user's interaction with the real world and the interaction model of mobile phones. This gap gave us an opportunity to explore design alternatives that are more natural and real world like. In this paper we present a vision for Natural Interactions and their application on mobile phones as a Generative User Interface. We also discuss variables that affect mobile user experience through comparisons between real world and Mobile based digital interactions.
