Abstract

In human-computer interaction, the visual interaction of user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) plays an important role in enriching the quality of daily life. The purpose of our study analyzes the use of brain-computer interface (BCI), wearable technology, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to explore the aesthetic processing of visual neural response to UI and UX designs. Specifically, this review aims to understand neuroaesthetic processing knowledge, aesthetic appreciation models, and the ways in which visual brain studies can improve the quality of current and future UI and UX designs. Recent research has found that subjective evaluations of aesthetic appreciation produce different results for objective evaluations of brain research analysis. We applied SWOT analysis and examined the advantages and disadvantages of both evaluation methods. Furthermore, we conducted a traditional literature review on topics pertaining to the use of aesthetic processing knowledge in the visual interaction field in terms of art therapy, information visualization, website or mobile applications, and other interactive platforms. Our main research findings from current studies have helped and motivated researchers and designers to use convincing scientific knowledge of brain event-related potential, electroencephalography, and fMRI to understand aesthetic judgment. The key trend finds that many designers, artists, and engineers use artistic BCI technology in the visual interaction experience. Herein, the scientific methods applied in the aesthetic appreciation to human-computer interface are summarized, and the influence of the latest wearable brain technology on visual interaction design is discussed. Furthermore, current possible research entry points for aesthetics, usability, and creativity in UI and UX designs are explicated. The study results have implications for the visual user experience research domain as well as for interaction industries, which produce interactive projects to improve people's daily lives.

Summary

Introduction

A part of human nature is liking for beautiful things [1]. is idea covers a wide range of disciplines, including humancomputer interaction (HCI), which includes hardware and software design and development. Is idea covers a wide range of disciplines, including humancomputer interaction (HCI), which includes hardware and software design and development. HCI is concerned with the design, evaluation, and implementation of interaction and computing systems for human use and the study of the major phenomena surrounding them, such as behavior and psychology demands [2]. Human-computer interface design is more specific, is considered the contact interface between the application and the end user ([3], p.1402), and concerns the user interface. E main parts of HCI or interface design are the user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) designs, which are related to the neuroaesthetic and aesthetic processing research. UX is correlated with human emotion, perception, preferences, reflections, feelings, and psychological variations UX [4] is defined as “a person’s perceptions and responses resulting from the use or anticipated use of a product, system, or service.” Usually, UX is correlated with human emotion, perception, preferences, reflections, feelings, and psychological variations
