Future of UI/UX

Fundamental Incoming Changes to UI/UX Enabled by Progress in Compute Resources (i.e. Moore’s law)

  • One of the fundamental incoming changes to software UI/UX enabled by progress in computer resources is the use of artificial intelligence to create personalized, adaptive and interactive interfaces that can learn from user behavior, preferences and feedback.
  • Another change is the emergence of augmented reality and virtual reality as new modalities for software UI/UX that can create immersive and engaging experiences for users, leveraging the increased processing power, graphics and sensors of modern devices.
  • A third change is the development of voice and gesture recognition as alternative input methods for software UI/UX that can enable more natural and intuitive interactions with software, especially for mobile and wearable devices that have limited screen space or keyboard access.
  • A fourth change is the integration of cloud computing and edge computing as complementary paradigms for software UI/UX that can optimize the performance, scalability and security of software applications, by distributing the computation and storage between centralized servers and local devices.
  • A fifth change is the adoption of micro frontends and web components as modular and reusable building blocks for software UI/UX that can simplify the development, testing and maintenance of complex and dynamic web applications, by enabling independent deployment and updates of different parts of the user interface.
