Abstract :
When we control complex human-machine systems, we need interfaces through which we can control and operate the systems easily. In this paper, we introduce "Ecological Interface Design (EID)" and "Intrinsic Metrics" to navigate mobile agents, and try to design an interface. We confirm our conception that the interface makes some task easier than conventional interfaces.
