Difficult Interfaces Blog
We were asked to identify two types of interfaces (such as a physical object or computer software/website) that are difficult to use.
My first idea was a nail clipper, since sometimes it’s difficult to get a precise cut or squeeze the clippers when you’re using your non-dominant hand. Behold, the electric nail clipper. It is formed the exact same way, but it is electronic, so all you need to do is position the clipper where you want it and press a button to cut your nails.
The second interface that is difficult to use are computer mice. Sometimes when moving your cursor, you have to lift up the mouse in order to continue. *Fanfare* an extra button! All you will have to do when you run out of space is direct the mouse in the direction of where you would like the cursor to move and click the extra button — voila, your cursor will move without you having to lift up your mouse.
