Fitts's Law Formula

This video is meant as a followup to Episode 24 of the Design30 Podcast on Fitts's Law. I talk through the formula for Fitts's Law that can be used to estimate how long it will take for a user to acquire a target (or select a button). Listen to the Design30 Podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or anywhere you listen to podcasts!
Design more. Despair less.

Where is the lag that is generated by MacKenzie & Ware in this formula ?

[@learndesign30]

If I’m understanding correctly, that can be accounted for in the constants “a” and “b”.

[@eatmyfoot335]

but whats log2?

[@learndesign30]

I would recommend doing some googling on that one. You will find much better answers than I can provide!
