VICON Vision

The VICON vision is to create and foster a Virtual User Concept for supporting the development process of user interfaces of consumer products and their user interfaces.

 

The Virtual User Concept will be based upon the utilization Virtual User Model throughout the entire development process. Special focus lies on addressing real time interaction/accessibility needs of user groups suffering from minor to moderate physical impairments. As such, Virtual User Profiles (a customizable library of virtual people) shall absorb new interaction paradigms in order to secure real-time access to exemplary consumer products.
