“…Taylor et al propose a motion-sensing mechanical keyboard to execute commands via mid-air gestures above buttons [32]. Another approach by Yilei et al uses micro-gestures on the button itself to add superscripts, accents, or Greek letters [29].…”

Despite decades of research, computer keyboards remain largely unchanged due to the enormous cost of acquiring muscle memory for efficient usage. We introduce TouchBoard, an evolution of the well-known keyboard design that expands user interactions through combining touch-sensitive keys, force sensing, targeted haptic feedback, and dynamic key labels. We discuss our design process for the TouchBoard hardware and present an exploratory study comparing TouchBoard with a conventional keyboard. Despite only a short learning phase, participants were able to use TouchBoard with initial performance at about 50% of the regular keyboard.

“…ultimate performance). The performance curve has been observed in many contexts such as text editing [17,48,81,80,46,57,69,82]. For instance, Shi et al compared the method GestAKey [69] with two regular methods (hotkey and long press) and show that users reach ultimate performance faster with the GestAKey.…”

“…We then use these concepts to go one step further explaining the retroactive transfer concept. To explain retroactive transfer, we use the example of text input as it is one of the most common applications of such phenomena among interaction techniques [46,69,80], empirical studies [20,49], models of performance [39,41] as well as optimization methods [10,11,25]. The term method refers to the alternative user means such as interaction techniques and keyboard layouts to input text.…”

We investigated retroactive transfer when users alternate between different interfaces. Retroactive transfer is the influence of a newly learned interface on users' performance with a previously learned interface. In an interview study, participants described their experiences when alternating between different interfaces, e.g. different operating systems, devices or techniques. Negative retroactive transfer related to text entry was the most frequently reported incident. We then reported a laboratory experiment that investigated the impact of similarity between two abstract keyboard layouts, and the number of alternations between them, on retroactive interference. Results indicated that even small changes in the interference interface produced a significant performance drop for the entire previously learned interface. The amplitude of this performance drop decreases with the number of alternations. We suggest that retroactive transfer should receive more attention in HCI, as the ubiquitous nature of interactions across applications and systems requires users to increasingly alternate between similar interfaces.
