Their application is illustrated using seminal and recent examples from graphical user interfaces, mobile interfaces, ubiquitous computing (internet of things), augmented reality, and physical interfaces.

Technologies:

• Window systems
• Device technology, basic electronics, microcontrollers
• Sensors, displays, and actuators
• Touch input
• Capturing physical context
• Physical prototyping and digital fabrication

Applications in:

• Graphical user interfaces
• Mobile interfaces
• Ubiquitous computing (Internet of Things)
• Tangible interfaces
• Augmented and virtual reality
• Wearable and embodied interfaces
