How Much Faster is Fast Enough?
Investigating users' perception of latency in touch-based systems through two experiments. The first compares direct and indirect input devices for tapping and dragging tasks, revealing that users are more sensitive to latency in direct input systems. The second experiment examines users' ability to perceive small improvements in latency, finding that even minor reductions can be noticeable, especially in dragging tasks.
