The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Human–computer interaction, Computer graphics, Computer hardware, Artificial intelligence and Gesture. His study explores the link between Human–computer interaction and topics such as World Wide Web that cross with problems in Dashboard and Telephone call. His Computer graphics research focuses on Graphical user interface and how it relates to State and Web search query.

His Computer hardware study also includes fields such as

• User interface, Mode, Session and Password most often made with reference to Interface,
• Communication device which intersects with area such as Object based. His Artificial intelligence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Speech recognition and Computer vision. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sensory cue and Heuristics.

His most cited work include:

• Touch screen device, method, and graphical user interface for determining commands by applying heuristics (2124 citations)
• Unlocking a device by performing gestures on an unlock image (1402 citations)
• Portable electronic device with interface reconfiguration mode (616 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in User interface, Human–computer interaction, Computer graphics, Artificial intelligence and World Wide Web. Scott Forstall focuses mostly in the field of User interface, narrowing it down to matters related to Interface and, in some cases, Display device. The concepts of his Human–computer interaction study are interwoven with issues in Graphical user interface, Multimedia and 10-foot user interface.

His study focuses on the intersection of Graphical user interface and fields such as Heuristics with connections in the field of Heuristic. His studies deal with areas such as Orientation, Electronic document, Gesture and Electronics as well as Computer graphics. In his work, Mode is strongly intertwined with Computer vision, which is a subfield of Artificial intelligence.

He most often published in these fields:

• User interface (22.40%)
• Human–computer interaction (20.77%)
• Computer graphics (19.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

• User interface (22.40%)
• Computer vision (15.85%)
• Artificial intelligence (16.94%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

User interface, Computer vision, Artificial intelligence, Computer graphics and Gesture are his primary areas of study. The various areas that Scott Forstall examines in his User interface study include Process, Presentation, Track, Mode and Synchronization. In his study, PATH and Path is strongly linked to Sensory cue, which falls under the umbrella field of Computer vision.

While the research belongs to areas of Computer graphics, Scott Forstall spends his time largely on the problem of Interface, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Human–computer interaction, Password, Session and State. He has included themes like Graphical user interface, Thumbnail Image, Thumbnail, Photo management and Scrolling in his Gesture study. His Graphical user interface research incorporates themes from Object, Computer hardware, Heuristics and Display device.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• Unlocking a device by performing gestures on an unlock image (1402 citations)
• Context-aware voice guidance (250 citations)
• Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Accessing an Application in a Locked Device (213 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

• Operating system
• Computer network
• World Wide Web

His main research concerns Artificial intelligence, Computer vision, Human–computer interaction, Interface and Graphical user interface. His study on Object, Gesture and Tracking is often connected to Location as part of broader study in Artificial intelligence. Scott Forstall has researched Gesture in several fields, including User interface, Image, Sensory cue and Path.

His study in Human–computer interaction is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Speech recognition, Voice Tag and Presentation. His Interface study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Computer graphics and Display device. His Graphical user interface research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Heuristics and Scrolling.
