User Engagement and User Design on Online Shopping Apps

Most people nowadays use mobile phones, and they do a lot of things with this device, including online shopping through an app since it saves a lot of time, and they can choose a broad range of products even with just a small screen. User engagement is one of the factors that affect the design of an app. Referring to the quality of the user that emphasizes the interaction between the user and the app. Numerous studies internationally have studied user engagement and app design but not specifically with the user engagement towards shopping apps design. We conducted this study to assess the effectiveness of user engagement towards online shopping apps design. Also, the purpose of this study is to identify user engagement factors that will produce a successful good shopping app design. The results show a high level of user engagement and online shopping apps design. It has also been found that among the indicators of user engagement, attention and satisfaction are the two predictors of the design of online shopping apps

A parameter guide for developing webcomics focused on small screen reading

There is a noticeable gap in academic studies between comic books and hypermedia. On the one hand, are found several publications on both printed and digital comic books. On the other hand, are publications aimed at media and technologies for content usability for small screen devices. Therefore, this study focuses on the development of comic books for small screen device reading. A parameter guide for the so-called Webtoons was developed, based on theoretical foundation, observation of webcomics in this style on content platforms, and 3 phases of qualitative field research. The research included interviews with comic artists, comic book professionals, and, seeking successive refinement, the guide's presentation to students as educational material.

Device for Hand Motor Rehabilitation, Using Grip Force Sensing

Current treatments for rehabilitation of prehensile movements or recovery of grip strength are generally subjective, which means that the results are based on the perception of the physiotherapist who performs the treatment. However, there may be many reasons for altering these results, from errors in the perception to a possible misdiagnosis. Reason for which it is necessary to keep a record of the progress of recovery of grip strength. These records even make it possible to determine if the treatment is successful or quantify how much the patient is improving. Due to these problems, a biomedical device has been developed to measure and store the grip force in hand motor rehabilitation. It starts with an input device that measures the grip strength and stores this information in a database. These data are presented on a small screen for the patient and on a computer for the physiotherapist. According to the force exerted in the grip handle, the system measures the changes in grip force. It displays them on a different screen from the patient perspective and the physiotherapist's perspective. The developed device facilitates the follow-up and monitoring of results of hand motor rehabilitation for the specialist. It also involves the patient in active participation, improving the success rate in the recovery process.
