Preparing The Evaluation
The goal of this study is to conduct a cooperative evaluation of
the InFocus Proxima 1690 Projector in terms of its design, usability
and menu functions. The Proxima is designed to be compatible with
both computer and video inputs either as a portable of fixed projector
that can be used in the workplace or at home. This is a picture of the
projector shown here.
The primary users for projectors are business or educational
groups concerned with presenting data, information or video to a large
audience. The projector used in this study is fixed to the ceiling in the
Interactive Media Lab and as such all tests and tasks were conducted
solely in that environment. In this respect we did not evaluate the
portability or connectivity of the projector in this particular study.

environments as a portable object used conjunction with various
different input devices such as PC’s, Laptops, DVD and Video players.
The focus of the test was divided between two areas of study:
• Using the remote control for the projector (shown below)
