- Fitts' Law(also: Fitts Law)
- A predictive model of human movement in human-computer interaction that states the time required to move to a target area is a function of the distance to the target and the size of the target. Specifically, larger and closer targets are faster to acquire than smaller and more…
- Fitts' Law(also: Fitts Law)
- A predictive model of human movement that describes the time required to rapidly move to a target area as a function of the distance to the target and the target's size. Formulated by psychologist Paul Fitts in 1954, the law states that larger, closer targets are faster to…
- Fitts's Law(also: Fitts Law)
- A predictive model of human movement that describes the time required to rapidly move to a target area as a function of the distance to the target and the size of the target. Formulated by Paul Fitts in 1954, the law states that movement time increases logarithmically as the…
- Fitts's Law(also: Fitts Law, Fitts' Law)
- A predictive model of human movement that describes the time required to rapidly move to a target area as a function of the distance to the target and the target's size. Smaller and more distant targets take longer to reach and are more prone to errors. In accessibility, Fitts's…
