上游充通大学 Research Status of Human-Computer Interaction Research Status of Human-Computer Interaction Linghan Zhenga,Rui Zhang,Chuankai Zhao a School of Electronic,Information and Electrical Engineering,Shanghai Jiao Tong University bSchool of Mechanical Engineering.Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Materials Science and Engineering,Shanghai Jiao Tong University Abstract With the progress of science and technology,human-computer interaction(HCI)expanded rapidly and steadily,having greatly reshaped our lifestyles.However,there is a lack of easily-understood papers to introduce these technologies to the common people.By summarizing the introductive contents in lots of papers,we show here five stages in the development of HCI:keyboard and character display,the mouse pointing device and graphical display,touch technology,multimedia and multimodal interaction,and virtual reality.Furthermore,the latest two phases,the multimodal interaction and the virtual reality,are introduced detailedly.The multimodal interaction is shown in four different aspects,including the speech recognition,the lip-reading,the facial expression recognition and the action recognition.The virtual reality includes the virtual reality system,the virtual reality hardware and the virtual reality software.At last,we predict that these two technologies will become the main directions of future HCI development.This paper provides comprehensive introduction of human-computer interaction and can be a great help to the common people and the junior researchers.
