The interaction mode in a mobile layout system was studied. An evaluation experiment was designed and conducted to compare five interaction modes: single pen-based, pen + voice, pen + keyboard, mouse + voice, mouse + keyboard. Subjects were instructed to fulfill the basic tasks of a layout plan design system, such as locating, shaping the property of, and modifying the coordinate setting of an object. In plan setting, modification time, accuracy rate and subjective preferences a pen-based system proved the best, pen + voice followed. This experiment confirmed that different availability of interaction modes resulted in different interaction efficiency in the mobile layout environment. The experiment also provided information on the possible efficient combination of interaction modes. This paper gives statistical support to indicate that use of pen is preferable to voice in setting and modification procedures in mobile technology.
