Abstract
With the rise of different interaction modalities, several different devices are available to users that need to learn how to interact with them. To avoid problems in the future, developers need to create intuitive interaction techniques, which is not a trivial task. To support the design of these techniques, we present a process where users interactively and iteratively participate in the design, through a series of individual interviews and focus groups. We also present two case studies, for a multimodal and a multi-touch application.
