Inspiration
The need to use the keyboard just to add the question mark and confirm a sentence seemed like an unnecessary distraction. To make the interaction with wit.ai more fluid while maintaining concentration on the voice it was necessary to add what was missing: the final punctuation!
What it does
This solution simplifies the interaction with the voice interface by minimizing the need to access the keyboard.
How I built it
I made this simple solution with css, javascript and a few lines of html so that I can implement the idea without complications.
Challenges I ran into
I tried to simplify as much as possible and went through several solutions, but I was guided by the simplicity of use.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I am particularly pleased with the interaction improvement I have achieved on the artificial intelligence interface I am working on: metaquid.com
What I learned
I have agreed that trying to do things the simple way can give a lot of satisfaction especially if the benefit is greater than the apparent simplicity of the solution.
What's next for EXPRESSION BUTTONS
Since it will be difficult to simplify further I would like to spread the idea of expression buttons as much as possible.
