“…Falcao et al [24 ] presented a usability evaluation that contained tasks to be done in Photoshop using hand gestures. The evaluation technology used was a questionnaire combining Nielsen's [79 ] and Jordan's [80 ] heuristics. These heuristics focus on the design of a user‐friendly interface, where Nielsen [79 ] involves issues such as user control, error prevention, and documentation.…”

Natural user interface (NUI) is considered a recent topic in human–computer interaction (HCI) and provides innovative forms of interaction, which are performed through natural movements of the human body like gestures, voice, and gaze. In the software development process, usability and user eXperience (UX) evaluations are a relevant step, since they evaluate several aspects of the system, such as efficiency, effectiveness, user satisfaction, and immersion. Thus, the goal of the authors’ systematic mapping study (SMS) is to identify usability and UX evaluation technologies used by researchers and developers in software with NUIs. Their SMS selected 56 papers containing evaluation technologies for NUI. Overall, the authors identified 30 different usability and UX evaluation technologies for NUI. The analysis of these technologies reveals most of them are used to evaluate software in general, without considering the specificities of NUI. Besides, most technologies evaluate only one aspect, Usability or UX. In other words, these technologies do not consider Usability and UX together. For future work, they intend to develop an evaluation technology for NUIs that fills the gaps identified in their SMS and combining Usability and UX.

The product development is a multidisciplinary process but also involves different areas of knowledge ranging from creativity in concept generation to refinement of design and finally the validation of the product. There are different approaches that attempt to define the best product development process, and thereby establishes a reliable method for efficiently transforming ideas into products. The use of a method that systematically establishes a work process seems to be highly advantageous, not only because it defines a critical and guiding path of work, organizing the tasks and their results, but also facilitates the communication of the development team. The methodology can provide records and other graphic documents that allow the development team to access these for future developments. The work presented here is the development of a systematic method supported by the use of structured tools to support the decisions, data processing and transposition of the same to the project in the approach to the new Product Development process. This research methodology was introduced and already implemented in projects at Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Aveiro. The work developed on it, both at the level of the students’ project and in the work of Development cooperation with companies presented good results. This method result in a structured way to transforming ideas into products.

“…E por nostalgia, não entendemos como sendo uma necessidade do velho ou do retrógrado, mas como uma recuperação ou valorização do passado, um sentimento agradável que nasce da interação entre homem e objeto, motivada pela história que lhes são peculiares. (PRESTES, 2013) Os aspectos sentimentais, inclusive, gerados através da utilização de produtos antigos, têm sido estudados pela teoria do Design Emocional que investiga o prazer e as emoções em adquirir produtos, sentimentos estes, que vão além da satisfação ou insatisfação, como o de nostalgia, por exemplo (JORDAN, 1998;NORMAN, 2005;BEBIANO, 2006).…”

“…De acordo com Jordan (1998), existem diversos métodos empíricos de avaliação que podem ser facilmente aplicados à usabilidade, como é o caso da técnicas que possuem origem na psicologia (questionários, entrevistas, focus group, etc). No entanto o autor afirma que três métodos de avaliação de usabilidade foram desenvolvimentos exclusivamente para a análise de usabilidade em interfaces gráficas digitais.…”
