Abstract
This paper identifies several factors that were observed as being crucial to the usability of multimodal in-vehicle applications – a multimodal system is not of value in itself. Focusing in particular on the typical combination of manual and voice control, this article describes important boundary conditions and discusses the concept of natural interaction.
