Abstract

Traditionally, (Human Comuter Interfaces) HCI are limited to keyboard and mouse input and to output of text and graphics on the screen.

This research wants to show the feasibility of an integrated multi media dialogue. With the help of voice command input and 3D-pointing devices, the usage of workstations and their software systems becomes easier and more comfortable.

The channels of human communication are manifold. Especially skills in visual and audio perception are very strong. The visualisation of complex data makes medical and scientific data understandable and gives access to (for an individual user) new information and insight.

Easy access to documents containing text, graphics, video, sound, computer generated animation, and photorealistic pictures has to be provided by a homogeneous HCI, that is easy to learn and use. This would evolve to an authoring system for hypermedia if the hypertext idea is incorporated.
