Abstract

With the development of gesture recognition technology, gesture control will be more and more widely used in every scene of life. As for map applications or applications, which people need to use more and more in daily travel, the operation mode of it still needs to be improved. Applying gesture control technology to map applications will provide a better user experience than the original operation mode in a specific scene. Actually, there are many gestures that may not conform to the users’ intuition. With the maturity of non-contact gesture interaction technology, the daily operation of map by gesture will have more advantages than the original operation mode. In this study, users’ intuitive gestures for different map functions are extracted through experiments. And summarized the gestures that were used the most times or the most intuitive gestures corresponding to each function. Finally form a set of intuitive gestures suitable for map applications. The research also analyzes the relationship between users’ intuitive gestures and map tasks. Also analyzes the relationship between users’ intuitive gestures and their previous experience of using intelligent devices, to discuss the impact of the using experience of intelligent devices on users’ intuitive gestures. We conducted gesture research experiments with participants, and we learned about the gestures they chose when facing different tasks and why they chose them. We found similarity between a part of intuitive gestures in experiment and the daily gestures during using intelligent devices.
