abstract
Over the past few decades, there has been a major evolution in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) due to rapid technological breakthroughs and changing user expectations. This review article aims to give readers a thorough grasp of the complex field of human-computer interaction by synthesising recent research and breakthroughs. The first section of the review looks at the fundamentals of HCI, such as user-centered design techniques, accessibility, and usability. It looks at how HCI has evolved to include a wide range of interfaces and devices, including wearable technologies, virtual reality, and mobile devices, in addition to classic desktop computing. The review also explores new developments in HCI, such as affective computing, gesture detection, and natural language processing. It discusses how machine learning and artificial intelligence can be used in HCI systems to provide users with more tailored and flexible experiences. It also examines how HCI is used in various fields, such as productivity tools, healthcare, education, agriculture, and entertainment. This review paper highlights the interdisciplinary character of HCI and the continuous effort to develop seamless interactions between people and computers while offering insights into the field's present and future directions. Through comprehension of these developments and patterns, scholars and professionals can aid in the creation of computing systems that are more user-friendly, effective, and inclusive.
