An '''interaction technique''', '''user interface technique''' or '''input technique''' is a combination of [[Computer hardware|hardware]] and [[software]] elements that provides a way for computer users to accomplish a single task. For example, one can go back to the previously visited page on a Web browser by either [[Point-and-click|clicking]] a [[Button (computing)|button]], pressing a [[Computer keyboard keys|key]], performing a [[mouse gesture]] or uttering a [[Hands-free computing|speech command]]. It is a widely used term in [[human-computer interaction]]. In particular, the term "new interaction technique" is frequently used to introduce a novel user interface design idea.
