The objective of the course is to develop the ability to observe, examine and weigh factors of different variables that bind the person to action, while characterizing and designing products, systems and user interfaces.

The course will expose technical data - anthropometric and physiological - but will emphasize an overall perception of the user experience and advanced perceptions regarding users well-being (Usability) in interaction with objects and systems of different functions and different fields.

We will become aware and review research and approaches from the fields of psychology, sociology, biomechanics, memetics, product design, AI, interface design (UX/UI) and engineering.
