Abstract
An interaction designer wishing to explore the potential of RSVP for a given application would expect to be provided with a concise set of guidelines requiring only a minimal understanding of the underpinning empirical evidence and theory. Both objective (e.g., image recognition) and subjective (e.g., fatigue) performances are of concern. Six questions typically asked by interaction designers concern those parameters that influence performance: they include the choice of visual style and the number of images simultaneously visible on the display. Following the presentation of design guidelines, examples of applications based on RSVP are provided.
