摘要

隨著科技的快速演進，現代人對行動通訊、無線上網與多媒體娛樂的需求更甚以往。根據國際市調研究機構Gartner的調查，Android作業系統的智慧型手機市占率一直在成長當中，為智慧型手機市場增加了不少話題性。然而，人機介面一直以來都是智慧型手機被關注的焦點，設計的考量著重在人機互動的方便性與適應性，並逐漸考慮到精緻度與美觀。漸漸的，由於觸控螢幕快速發展，人機介面設計者的思維從視覺層面轉換到觸覺層面，觸控螢幕震動回饋也開始大量應用於人機介面之設計。然而，為了讓人機介面之觸覺感受更加真實，新型態人機介面觸覺裝置開始出現，其主要的差異性為其單一觸感之震動，可以根據不同物件或材質產生一個真實的觸覺感受。為了迎接新形態之人機介面觸覺裝置，Android程式框架中必須支援該新型態之服務，使AndroidSoftware Platform迎接新世代之人機介面。本文將朝Android框架架構的探討，並分享如何將新型態人機介面裝置整合於Android系統之中，以感受新型態人機介面之震撼。

With the rapid evolution of technology, the modern demand for mobile communications, wireless Internet and multimedia entertainment is more than before. According to the marketing research from Gartner, Inc, the percentage of Android operating system has been growing more and more in the smart phone market with a lot of topics. However, human-computer interface has been one of the key designs of smart phones which are focused from the convenience and adaptability of the human-computer interaction to consider the delicacy of aesthetics. Gradually, due to the rapid development of the touch screen, thinking of the man-machine interface designers has converted from a visual dimension to a tactile level. Therefore, vibration feedback of touch screen also starts to be implemented to human-computer interface design. Moreover, to make the haptics effect more reality, a new type of man-machine device is proposed. The main difference is the vibration for a single touch according to different objects or materials to produce realistic tactile feelings. In order to meet the new forms of human-computer haptics device interface, the modified Android framework must support this novel service so that the software platform can be regarded as a new generation man-machine interface. Besides, the analysis of the architecture of Android framework is discussed in this article, and shares the concept about how a new type of human interface devices integrated into the Android system so that people can immediately feel this amazing touch effect.
