Abstract

With the development of 5G networks, capacity enhancement, massive connectivity, ultra-high reliability, and low latency are typical use scenarios of information communication technology (ICT). These ICT improvements will also bring large challenges and revolutions to future human-computer interaction (HCI). This study aims to explore the emerging and promising trends and applications of HCI in the 5G era. Eleven experts in HCI and psychology were invited to participate in focus groups and brainstorming studies to collect their perspectives and expectations of future life scenarios and technological applications with 5G networks. Four trends in HCI are identified and proposed in this paper according to their opinions: natural interaction, multimodal display, virtual identity, and cloud data. The four trends are based on the elements of humans, computers, and the interactions between them and the environment. Each identified trend is analyzed in terms of main technological applications, links to 5G development, and future life scenarios. A related trend model was further discussed with respect to user experience and privacy protection.
