Abstract

This paper proposes a user interface model named GVUI, which provides a design guidance for the voice assistant running on smart display. The theory of GVUI is divided into three parts. First, a multi-modal structure is built, which allows each modality to play to its strength and cooperate with each other. Second, three principles of conversational user interface are proposed, including intuitive, inclusive and stress-free, and 15 tips are provided to explain how to achieve these goals. Third, the paper describes a card-based visual reply design pattern and introduces three types of arrangement for multiple results. In the conclusion based on the practice of weather query function, it is proved that an intuitive and efficient user experience of voice can be gained via GVUI.
