1. On network, Search one kind of HCI technology that you think will be the next hot technology.
Briefly describe the application scenarios of this technology, and attach relevant news links or
video links.
Answer: Human–computer interaction is research in the design and the use of computer
technology, which focuses on the interfaces between people and computers. HCI researchers
observe the ways humans interact with computers and design technologies that allow
humans to interact with computers in novel ways.

On network, one kind of HCI technology that I think will be the next hot technology is
virtual/augmented reality.
The VR (virtual-reality) landscape is going to look a lot more interesting in the next decade.
With Facebook’s purchase of Oculus and Microsoft entering the VR arena with HoloLens, the
competition is really starting to heat up.
These headsets might eventually render TVs obsolete. After all, why would I watch my
favorite football team through a rectangle box when I could have them projected into my
living room. This is all great news for designers. This new technology will come with a
completely new set of human-computer interactions.
Imagine a crowded coffee shop without a single laptop. Instead, everyone is wearing a
headset. And instead of tapping and clicking, they might be waving their hands around and
pinching thin air. It might look a bit silly at first, but over time this could be completely
normal. Once these headsets become commonplace, augmented reality will truly come into
it’s own. Imagine looking at a restaurant and seeing it’s menu and yelp rating floating in thin
air next to it. Or imagine having your Google Maps directions projected onto the road before
your eyes!

These new VR technologies will give rise to so many new and unique interactions, it will truly
change the way we design user interfaces and interact with computer systems. Interfaces
will no longer be trapped in tiny screens but will instead inhabit our own three dimensional
world. In fact, the job of the interface designer and the 3D computer animator will begin to
blur together.

The transition will be gradual, but it will be extremely important for UI and UX designers to
become familiar with 3D design techniques if they are going to stay relevant in this new VR
driven world.

2. Design an interactive system to prevent drivers from sleeping when driving. It is required
to draw a sketch and explain the main principle.
Answer:

Drowsiness detection is a safety technology that can prevent accidents that are caused by
drivers who fell asleep while driving.
The objective of this intermediate Python project is to build a drowsiness detection system
that will detect that a person’s eyes are closed for a few seconds. This system will alert the
driver when drowsiness is detected.
