Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the human factors issues associated with the development, testing, and implementation of helmet-mounted display technology in the 21st Century Land Warrior System. Because the framework of analysis is soldier performance with the system in the full range of environments and missions, the book discusses both the military context and the characteristics of the infantry soldiers who will use the system. The major issues covered include the positive and negative effects of such a display on the local and global situation awareness of the individual soldier, an analysis of the visual and psychomotor factors associated with each design feature, design considerations for auditory displays, and physical sources of stress and the implications of the display for affecting the soldier's workload. The book proposes an innovative approach to research and testing based on a three-stage strategy that begins in the laboratory, moves to controlled field studies, and culminates in operational testing.

Download or read book Head Up Displays Designing the Way Ahead written by Richard L. Newman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a thorough description of this increasingly important technology, starting from the development of head-up displays (HUDs), particularly specifications and standards and operational problems associated with HUD use. HUD involvement in spatial disorientation and its use in recognizing and recovering from unusual attitudes is discussed. The book summarizes the design criteria including hardware, software, interface and display criteria. It goes on to outline flight tasks to be used for evaluating HUDs and discusses the impact of HUDs on flight training. Recent work indicates that a HUD may allow a significant reduction in the time required to train a pilot on a particular aircraft, even considering non-HUD-related tasks. The author concludes with a review of unresolved HUD issues and recommendations for further research and provides an impressive bibliography, glossary and index. Within the military aviation sector the book will be of use to industry, research agencies, test pilot schools and air force training establishments. In the civil area regulatory authorities, airlines and industry will also have an increasing interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human-Machine Systems Design and Evaluation Methodology for Intelligent Vehicles examines the fields of designing and developing intelligent design and intelligent vehicle driving evaluation by using virtual reality, augmented reality, and other technologies. The book explains the methodologies and systems of interactive design, user evaluation and testing using virtual reality technology and augmented reality technology in intelligent cockpit design. With the rising prominence of electric vehicles and automatic driving (assisted) technology, intelligent vehicles are becoming a reality. Compared to traditional interactive design, artificial intelligence provides new opportunities and challenges for the interactive design of intelligent cockpit space, especially under the condition of intelligent assisted driving, the driver's behavior performance, multimodal interactive display interface design and evaluation. Focuses on the interactive design methods of intelligent vehicles, as well as forward-looking design and testing methods of intelligent vehicle design Emphasizes that interactive design should be carried out using the relevant elements of intelligent system in the design of intelligent cars: starting from the interactive characteristics of intelligence itself Starts from AI interactive design and combines the field of cognitive science to develop the methods and technologies of vehicle borne equipment and collaborative human-computer interaction design Includes design cases from the intelligent car interaction design laboratory of Tongji University and related scientific research projects in China.

Book excerpt: In order to prevent driver overload and to save dashboard space, designers consider the application of in-car Head-Up Displays (HUDs) to present information to car drivers. Generally it is assumed that processing information presented on a HUD is faster and less loading that when presented on a conventional Head-Down Display (HDD). However, previous studies have yielded unclear results. The goal of the present study is to determine whether the assumed benefits of HUD over HDD do exist. A secondary goal is to investigate whether in HUD research in driving simulators a projected instead of mirrored HUD can be used. In a driving simulator experiment a comparison was made between analogue Head-Up and Head-Down speedometers. Subjects, while keeping their lane, had to stay as close as possible to a prespecified target speed, compensating for unpredictably varying side- and adverse winds. Results showed a clear advantage of HUD over HDD in lane keeping, speed keeping and subjective workload. Using a projected instead of a mirrored HUD yielded even slightly more favourable results. This implies that, though in the present study a projected HUD had similar relative effects as a mirrored HUD, it is preferable to use a mirrored HUD in HUD-research.

This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of 'situation awareness' (SA) in assessing and predicting operator competence in complex environments has become increasingly apparent in recent years. It has been widely established that SA is a contributing factor to many commercial and military accidents and incidents. Yet determining exactly what constitutes SA is a very difficult task, given the complexity of the construct itself, and the many different processes involved with its acquisition and maintenance. This volume brings together recent developments from researchers and practitioners from around the world who are studying and applying SA from a cognitive perspective. The 41 contributors represent many different theoretical perspectives, research approaches and domains of application. Each chapter has a primary emphasis around one of three main topics - theory, measurement and application and examines the considerable inter-linkage between them. To bring further coherence to the book, all of the contributors received draft manuscripts of those chapters most relevant to their own. Designed to be completely international and interdisciplinary, the authors themselves present varied perspectives from academic departments and industrial organisations from around the world, and from broad applications - with contributions from researchers in the domains of process control, sport, aviation, transportation, and command and control. The readership includes practitioners, academics and researchers within human factors, ergonomics and industrial psychology; Graduate and Undergraduate students specialising within these areas during their final year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the literature on automotive head-up displays (HUDs) from a human-factors point of view. Four major topics are covered in this reivew: HUD display parameters, the designs of available HUDs, popular appraisals of HUDs, and human performance with HUDs. The most important display parameters are HUD location and HUD contrast with respect to the roadway. Several assessments of optimal HUD location have been made, and there is a consensus that HUDs should be located in the region where drivers make the majority of their eye fixations. Appropriate HUD image contrast levels with respect oth the roadway have also been assessed, and it has been recommended that the HUD image be between 15 percent and 50 percent as bright as the background for daylight luminance conditions, and about 300 percent as bright as the background during nighttime luminance conditions. The second section of the review is dedicated to the description of HUD hardware and available HUD systems. It is the evident that technology is available to produce a HUD that meets all of the display criteria discussed in the first section, with the exception of optimal HUD image contrast with the brightest backgrounds. Popular perceptions of automotive HUDs are discussed in the third section of the review. People believe that HUDs would be beneficial for performing the driving task, but will require more experience with HUDs before being comfortable with them in their automobiles. Human performance with automotive HUDs is discussed in the final section of this review. Most assessments have investigated the effects of displaying speedometer information head-up. It has been found that people can monitor and extract information from a HUD speedometer ore rapidly and frequently than from a conventional speedometer, but that HUD speedometers do not affect speeding behavior. The most significant benefit of HUD speedometers is that they allow for quicker and more accurate reactions to roadway...
