Paper Abstract:     

New equipment and software for providing different modes for user interaction emerged and became popular in the last decade; they are used in various devices, such as mobile and game consoles, which can display Web pages due to the increasing of the processing power in these devices. Since interaction with each mode has peculiarities, when a user is interacting with a mode not considered in the design time, she might have interaction problems. Here, we present our in-progress work about Web navigation with motion sensors; we chose Google Maps and Google Street View to evaluate the use of Kinect, a motion sensing input device that allow users interact with gestures. By user testing, where six participants performed four tasks and answering a post-test questionnaire, we concluded that adaptations are necessary to users have a good experience and, after a long time, users feel the shoulder and forearms fatigued.
