LSRI: The Importance of the Interface

Dr Sarah Sharples
University of Nottingham

It seems intuitive to ergonomists that the design of the interface has a critical impact on the success of a product, whether in a work, leisure or educational environment. However, it is sometimes difficult to demonstrate this importance. This talk will consider examples of work drawn from areas such as virtual reality, pedestrian navigation systems, social networking technologies and transport control interfaces to consider how the design of the interface does contribute to operator performance and satisfaction, and how this interacts with other aspects of cognitive ergonomics and design.

This seminar will take place in Room 35a, Flexible Learning Room, LSRI, The Exchange, Jubilee Campus
