A Methodology for Evaluating Advanced Operator Workstation Accommodation

Abstract

While the Human Systems Engineering (HSE) process is wide and varied during system development, part of it must seek to maximize mission effectiveness through experimentation and analysis in two areas: 1) physical layout - to ensure the widest physical accommodation range of operator body size and proportion, 2) reduction of performance reducing fatigue. This white paper outlines a methodological approach that should be used to optimize and evaluate the physical and functional aspects of candidate designs for future Advanced Operator Workstations (AOWs).
