Preface
Successful interaction with products, tools, and technologies depends on usable
designs and accommodating the needs of potential users without requiring costly
training.Inthiscontext,thisbookisconcernedwithemergingergonomicsindesign
concepts, theories and applications of human factors knowledge focusing on the
discovery,designandunderstandingofhumaninteractionandusabilityissueswith
products and systems for their improvement.
Thisbookwillbeofspecialvaluetoalargevarietyofprofessionals,researchers,
and students in the broad field of human modeling and performance who are
interested in feedback of devices’ interfaces (visual and haptic), virtual reality,
user-centered design, design for special populations, particularly the elderly and
assistivetechnology.Wehopethisbookisinformative,butevenmorethanthatitis
thought provoking. We hope it inspires, leading the reader to contemplate other
questions, applications, and potential solutions in creating good designs for all.
The book is organized into five sections focusing on the following subject
matters: Design Applications and User Research, Virtual Reality and Digital
Environments in Design, Design and Applied Anthropometry, Development and
Methodology Issues in Design, User Experience and Learning Environments
In the sections that cover product design and applied anthropometry, the focus
goes to the limits and capabilities of special populations, particularly the elderly,
which can influence the design. Generally, the effect of changes in force and
kinematics,physiology,cognitiveperformance,inthedesignofconsumerproducts,
tools,andworkplacesisdiscussed.Thesectionsthatcovervirtualrealityanddigital
environment, product and design evaluation and sustainable design employ a
variety of research methods and user-centered evaluation approaches, for devel-
oping products that can improve safety and human performance and at same time,
theefficiencyofthesystem.Usabilityevaluationsarereportedfordifferentkindsof
products and technologies.
