Multimodal Interfaces
Download as ppt, pdf1 like968 views
Multimodal interfaces use computer vision, touch surfaces, and other input methods to allow novel ways of interacting with computers beyond the traditional keyboard and mouse. Technologies like the Wiimote, iPhone touchscreen, and Kinect demonstrate approaches like gesture recognition and touch that will continue advancing as hardware and software improve, making these interfaces cheaper, more accurate, and more widely available. This opens opportunities to rethink user interfaces and how people interact with and navigate digital experiences.

This document discusses the evolution of user interface design from early computers like the Xerox Alto to modern interfaces. It notes key developments like the Windows, Icons, Menus, Pointers (WIMP) interface introduced in the 1980s and made popular by Apple and Microsoft. The document also discusses how interfaces are moving away from skeuomorphic designs that mimic physical objects towards flatter designs as digital interfaces have become more commonplace. It predicts that the era of WIMP interfaces is ending and new interfaces using gestures, sounds and even thought control will become more prevalent.History of Human-Computer Interaction

The computer is identified as the most important invention of the 20th century. It has allowed for improved communication globally through chat, email, and instant messages. Computers also enable remote work and improved precision in fields like medicine and industry. However, computers have increased unemployment and made people too dependent on technology, leaving them vulnerable to hackers and data loss if security is compromised.A keyboard

?
The keyboard, monitor, mouse, and light pen are four common interaction devices that have evolved over time. The keyboard started as a typewriter-style input and remains widely used today on computers and mobile devices. Monitors transitioned from monochrome CRT displays to color LCD screens. The mouse was included with more computers in the 1980s and now features scroll wheels and multiple buttons. The light pen was used for drawing on CRT displays but is obsolete with LCD screens. Emerging technologies like touch screens, digital pens, and paper-like displays may impact these traditional devices going forward.CSS Cascade [Òë]

Let's talk about our history. How we started the project with a small vector database of less than 2 million records. Later, we received a request for +100 million records, then another +100... And so gradually we reached almost 1 billion. Standard tools were quickly running out of steam - we were running into performance, index size, and very limited resources. After a long series of trials and errors, we built our own low-cost cluster, which today stably processes thousands of queries to more than 1B vectors."Database isolation: how we deal with hundreds of direct connections to the d...

What can go wrong if you allow each service to access the database directly? In a startup, this seems like a quick and easy solution, but as the system scales, problems appear that no one could have guessed.
In my talk, I'll share Solidgate's experience in transforming its architecture: from the chaos of direct connections to a service-based data access model. I will talk about the transition stages, bottlenecks, and how isolation affected infrastructure support. I will honestly show what worked and what didn't.

As AI reshapes expectations in retail and B2B commerce, organizations are recognizing a critical reality: meaningful AI outcomes depend on well-structured, adaptable infrastructure. In this session, Seth Earley is joined by Phil Ryan - AI strategist, search technologist, and founder of Glass Leopard Technologies - for a candid conversation on what it truly means to engineer systems for scale, agility, and intelligence.
Phil draws on more than two decades of experience leading search and AI initiatives for enterprise organizations. Together, he and Seth explore the challenges businesses face when legacy architectures limit personalization, agility, and real-time decisioning - and what needs to change to support agentic technologies and next-best-action capabilities.
Key themes from the webinar include:
Composability as a prerequisite for AI?- Why modular, loosely coupled systems are essential for adapting to rapid innovation and evolving business needs
Search and relevance as foundational to AI?- How techniques honed-in enterprise search have laid the groundwork for more responsive and intelligent customer experiences
From MDM and CDP to agentic systems?- How data platforms are evolving to support richer customer context and dynamic orchestration
Engineering for business alignment?- Why successful AI programs require architectural decisions grounded in measurable outcomes
The conversation is practical and forward-looking, connecting deep technical understanding with real-world business needs. Whether you¡¯re modernizing your commerce stack or exploring how AI can enhance product discovery, personalization, or customer journeys, this session provides a clear-eyed view of the capabilities, constraints, and priorities that matter most.CapCut Pro Crack For PC Latest Version {Fully Unlocked} 2025

VMware¡¯s pricing changes have forced organizations to rethink their datacenter cost management strategies. While FinOps is commonly associated with cloud environments, the FinOps Foundation has recently expanded its framework to include Scopes¡ªand Datacenter is now officially part of the equation. In this session, we¡¯ll map the FinOps Framework to a VMware-based datacenter, focusing on cost visibility, optimization, and automation. You¡¯ll learn how to track costs more effectively, rightsize workloads, optimize licensing, and drive efficiency¡ªall without migrating to the cloud. We¡¯ll also explore how to align IT teams, finance, and leadership around cost-aware decision-making for on-prem environments. If your VMware bill keeps increasing and you need a new approach to cost management, this session is for you!2025_06_18 - OpenMetadata Community Meeting.pdf
