Ultimately vocal computing is replacing the traditional graphical user interface.” -Shawn DuBravac
Interface design enables humans to experience and interact with technology.
Interestingly, Voice User Interface (VUI), is the ability to speak to devices and its capability, in turn, to understand and act upon users’ commands.
Voice user interface: the next-gen of UX
The rise of voice can be mainly credited to the evolution of AI and cloud computing capabilities.
With machine learning and natural language processing, technology now has the ability to interpret human speech more accurately and in real-time, while also taking note of individual users’ speech tendencies.
With an approach that is more convenient and human-like, VUI is becoming the next generation of human-computer interaction.
From asking Siri to book your appointment with the doc next Monday to asking Alexa to play your favourite show on Amazon Prime; the act of using voice commands has become increasingly natural for users.
Designing a Voice User Interface
Voice represents the new pinnacle of intuitive interfaces that democratize the use of technology.
For web and application designers, voice interaction, perhaps, is the biggest UX challenge since the dawn of the touchscreen age.
Every voice recognition platform has a unique set of technological constraints.
It is essential that you embrace these constraints when architecting a voice interaction UX.
The basic voice UX flow
UX was always designed to make interactions as similar to the real world as can be and voice has the potential to make that a reality.
UX designers must make sure they’re asking the right questions to elicit the appropriate verbal responses from users.
