The advancement of multimedia has led to the emergence of various display technologies beyond traditional liquid crystal displays (LCDs), developed for commercial purposes. Unlike conventional one-way LCDs, these new technologies leverage the environment and user appearance as additional elements for information provision. Despite the rapid development of these display technologies, there is insufficient emphasis on the service provision environment for products utilizing them. Specifically, GUI design, crucial for user-product interaction, has predominantly focused on the service UIs of past LCD methods rather than evolving interfaces.
To address this gap, this study aims to establish appropriate GUI design principles for services provided in the widely distributed and commercialized mirror display environment. Through comprehensive analysis, including literature review and evaluation of existing mirror display products, this study examines the overall mirror display product environment and develops GUI design guidelines for new mirror display products. Given the scarcity of prior studies on the characteristics of GUI design in mirror display environments, this research analyzed GUI components from actual mirror display application case products to identify common characteristics.
Based on these findings, GUI design guidelines for mirror display products were developed, followed by usability evaluations to validate these guidelines. To gather detailed user perspectives, questionnaire evaluations and Think Aloud evaluations were conducted, leading to the formulation of GUI design principles for mirror display products. The final results include a spine function evaluation service, providing a design format aligned with the service information encountered by users during their service search, spine function evaluation, and result review processes. This study is significant as it offers a standard for service interface design in the novel mirror display environment and serves as foundational data for interface design research focused on new interaction technologies, moving beyond traditional service-oriented UI design research frameworks.
