Scope

This standard provides guidelines for haptic / tactile interactions in the context of multimodal
environments specific to immersive and other environments, where combinations of modalities are
intended to be used concurrently, overlapping, or sequentially by a user and will consider multimodal
issues (such as allocation of functionality to different modalities).
It provides guidance on the design of hardware, software, and combinations of hardware and software
interactions, including how to design (multimodal) systems which use touch, gesture, and user’s body
movement as inputs.
Guidance on how and where to use different interaction patterns and techniques. Allows the design of
direct and indirect interactions for passive and active touch for interaction and manipulation using
various classes of input devices and their characteristics including hand and non-hand input devices.

Purpose

This standard will provide support for the development, evaluation, and procurement of multimodal user interfaces that incorporate tactile and/or haptic interactions and other modalities such as movement and speech.
While tactile and haptic interactions are increasingly used in a variety of
situations, there is currently a lack of guidance to design interactions synergistically and maximize the
abilities of users while avoiding overload.
This part of ISO 9241 will provide important guidance on multimodal task primitives, specific
accessibility issues, and error prevention.
Tactile / haptic device designers, user interface developers, and their managers will be able to directly
use this standard in both design and the evaluation of multimodal designs. Procurers will be able to use this standard to specify interaction requirements within their procurement requests and/or as a basis evaluation of proposed systems.
