Abstract
In GUI-based systems today, there is a clear methodology in the design of a system and there are also methodologies to predict the interaction between the user and the system. However, this does not reflect the way the user normally interacts with the world. To develop an interface that allows this is more complex, as it requires advanced technology and redesign of some interaction styles. To be able to exemplify some new interaction concepts, a number of interactive examples; spatial radio communication, immersiveness and an interface for high-speed navigation at sea, were constructed. Focus has been on known problems, or situations where there is a need for increased MSI-support. During the autumn, possible solutions to these situations has been shown with aid from the interactive examples discussed above. The project has been performed as a pre-study where certain principles have been tried as a foundation for a more comprehensive project starting 2004. During 2003, the aim was to show possible MSI-solutions regarding current problems and information load in the Swedish armed forces. A central theme has been to try different types of multimodal interaction styles as; tactile sensations, spatial sound and visual overlay.
