Introduction
With all devices now touch-driven and offering few physical keys, the effective usage of touch screens is critical. The chapter, âTouchscreen-Based User Interaction,â by Andrea Bizzotto, provides basic insight into the complexities and solutions required to achieve the best possible user-interaction and experience through a touch-based interface.
âOptimizing a 3D UI Engine for Mobile Devices,â by Hyunwoo Ki, offers early insights into optimizing a user interface for mobile devices, looking at the importance of font rendering engines and âdirty regionâ-based optimizations to avoid rendering more than is actually required.
The chapter, âA Shader-Based eBook Renderer," by Andrea Bizzotto illustrates a vertex-shader-based implementation of the page-peeling effect of a basic eBook renderer. It covers high-quality procedural antialiasing of the page edges, as well a...
