Week 1: Introduction about Digital Interface Design

1.What is Interface Design?

Interface design deals with the process of developing a method for two (or more) modules in a system to connect and communicate. These modules can apply to hardware, software or the interface between a user and a machine. An example of a user interface could include a GUI, a control panel for a nuclear power plant, or even the cockpit of an aircraft. It is the design of user interfaces for machines and software, such as computers, home appliances, mobile devices, and other electronic devices, with the focus on maximizing the user experience. Interface design is involved in a wide range of projects from computer systems, to cars, to commercial planes; all of these projects involve much of the same basic human interactions yet also require some unique skills and knowledge. As a result, designers tend to specialize in certain types of projects and have skills centered on their expertise, whether that be software design, user research, web design, or industrial design.



2.What is Navigation Button?

A set of buttons or graphic images typically in a row or column used as a central point to link the user to major topic sections on a Web site. The navigation bar may be a single graphic image with multiple selections. These help you find your way around, or "navigate" through the site to find what you want.



3.What is Mobile Apps? Why we need it?

A mobile app is a computer program designed to run on smartphones, tablet computers and other mobile devices. Mobile applications frequently serve to provide users with similar services to those accessed on PCs. Apps are generally small, individual software units with limited function. This use of software has been popularized by Apple Inc. and its App Store, which sells thousands of applications for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. A mobile app may be a mobileWeb site bookmarking utility, a mobile-based instant messaging client, Gmail for mobile, and many other applications. WHY we need it? Apps give your business visibility that extends beyond the Internet and literally into your customers' pockets and purses. Apps from MobileAppLoader are the most feature-rich – and affordable – mobile Apps on the market today.
