FItts’s Law

FItts’s Law

Fitts's Law is basically an empirical model explaining speed-accuracy tradeoff characteristics of human muscle movement with some analogy to Shannon’s channel capacity theorem.**Mehmet Göktürk, associate professor at the Department of Computer Engineering, Gebze Institute of Technology in Turkey

T is the time to reach target.D is the distance to the target.W is the width of the target.

Steering Law

Steering Law…The steering law is a predictive model of human movement, concerning the speed and total time with which a user may steer a pointing device (such as a mouse or stylus) through a 2D tunnel presented on a screen (i.e. with a bird's eye view of the tunnel), where the user must travel from one end of the path to the other as quickly as possible, while staying within the confines of the path. One potential practical application of this law is in modeling a user's performance in navigating a hierarchical cascading menu.

Expected behavior

Expected behaviorwhat the user expects to happen should match what actually happens on screen
