Abstract:
With the advent of ubiquitous computing, Human-Computer Interfaces must now be able to dynamically adapt to changes which may occur in their context of use while preserving usability. In this perspective, previous research evidences the need to adapt User interfaces (UIs) by taking into account dynamic user features like emotions at design time. To go one step further, this paper proposes an architecture to adapt the UI driven by user emotions at run-time. It is based on an existing adaptation approach which is extended to consider emotions. Hence, this proposition relies on three main components: the inferring engine, the adaptation engine and the Interactive System. We show an ongoing prototype to evaluate the feasibility of the approach for which we describe its implementation.
