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 assistive technology. We hope this book is informative, but even more that it is thought provoking. We hope it inspires, leading the reader to contemplate other questions, applications, and potential solutions in creating good designs for all. This book is organized into eleven sections focusing on the following subject matters: Virtual Reality Challenges, Devices and User Interfaces and Digital Environment, User Studies, Product Design and Evaluation, and Prospective Ergonomics. In the sections that cover Assistive Technology and User Interfaces, the focus is on optimization of user devices, with emphasis on visual and haptic feedback.InthesectionsthatcoverProductDesignandHumanWorkInteractions, 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, cognitive performance, in the design of consumer products,tools,andworkplacesisdiscussed.ThesectionsthatcoverVirtualReality and Digital Environment, Product and Design Evaluation and Sustainable Design employsavarietyofresearchmethodsanduser-centeredevaluationapproaches,for developing products that can improve safety and human performance and at same time the efficiency of the system. Usability evaluations are reported for different kinds of products and technologies.
