I saw that by next Sunday, we had to find a 'Person of the Week' for COGS120. Not too sure about all the specs. of the assignment, however, I figured the best way to start was to find notable HCI people and then pick one out of all of them:
Douglas Engelbart - came up with the 'mouse'
Paul Fitts - math models of rapid/aimed human movement
Alan Kay - OOP and GUI
Steve Mann - Wearable computer (I've seen a video of this somewhere)
Ivan Sutherland - sketchpad
(that's what I have so far -and it's mostly people that I think have a bigger influence in general) But I will continue to look for others...
I'm sure, more will be covered in lecture.
