This article aims to understand which methods and user assessment approaches are most commonly used in motor rehabilitation studies that use Augmented Reality (AR) applications. The way in which this was performed and discussed was through a systematic review of the area. Firstly, the different uses of AR in these treatments, and the importance of improving usability studies to evaluate these interfaces and their interactions with their users, were discussed. Then, the systematic review of the literature was structured according to previous studies and covered the period from 2007 to September 2017, using the main scientific journals of the area. Of the 666 results collected in the initial search, 32 articles were selected within the planned requirements and scope. These publications were classified by relevance, using the QualSyst evaluation tool for health technology research, and the type of evaluation, approach, and methods used were catalogued. It was found that most of the studies prioritise methods of data collection, such as task execution and performance analysis. However, through QualSyst, it was verified that the best-evaluated studies chose to use a combination of quantitative and qualitative analysis, through the application of methods such as user preference questionnaires, interviews, and observations. The results presented in this review may benefit designers who intend to design and conduct usability assessments for AR within this context.
Palavras-chave: Usabilidade, Interface, Fotografia Em tempos em que os produtos da indústria fotográfica evoluem e se transformam, as câmeras profissionais não mudaram muito em sua aparência e mecânica de uso. Neste estudo, através de observações sistemáticas, tarefas contextualizadas e avaliação heurística, conduzimos análises para detectar e mapear pontos críticos em sua usabilidade e propor melhorias e recomendações para tornar o seu uso uma boa experiência.
Key-word: Usability, Interface, PhotographyIn times when the products of the photographic industry evolve and transform, the professional cameras have not changed much in their appearance and mechanics of use. In this study, through systematic observations, contextualized tasks and heuristic evaluation, we conduct analyzes to detect and map critical points in their usability and propose improvements and recommendations to make their use a good experience.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
