The content of this handbook would be most appropriate for graduate students, and of primary interest to students studying computer science and information technology, human-computer interfaces, mobile and ubiquitous interfaces, and related multidisciplinary majors. When teaching graduate classes with this book, whether in quarter or semester classes, we recommend initially requiring that students spend two weeks reading the introductory textbook, The Paradigm Shift to Multimodality in Contemporary Interfaces (Morgan Claypool, Human-Centered Interfaces Synthesis Series, 2015). This textbook is suitable for upper-division undergraduate and graduate students. With this orientation, a graduate class providing an overview of multimodal-multisensor interfaces then could select chapters from the handbook distributed across topics in the different sections.--
