Resumo

Cognitive infocommunications (CogInfoCom) study the connections between infocommunications and cognitive experiences. This paper matches with the purpose of the Conference because it explores Enactive knowledge and its relations with Interaction Design of Multimodal Interfaces. Enactive knowledge is what it is built through the action and is built on motor skills as manipulating an object, riding a bike or practicing sports. It is acquired by doing. On other hand, multimodal interfaces are known as inherently flexible, and to provide an especially ideal interface for accommodating both the changing demands on technology and the large individual differences present in the population. It's possible to affirm that the main concept of enactive interfaces is to allow the construction of knowledge and storage of information from interfaces that enable some kind of motor action. This paper aims to discuss the exploratory process of the relations between men and multimodal systems, prospecting new possibilities from an enactive vision and analyzing how it can substantially reduce the gap still existing between men and technology, especially in their everyday objects and devices. © 2013 IEEE.
