Original abstract

A design of control panels and desks with regard to operator’s reliability has therefore become a key aspect of technology design. Due to high costs of full-scale experiments of human reliability, virtual reality systems have recently started to be exploited. This paper deals with the experimental evaluation of reliability of staff (operation error rate) operating the panel in the control room in the virtual reality system when testing the control panel design. Factors evaluated are the arrangement of buttons on the panel (horizontal/vertical) and the type of stimulus (visual, auditory). The experiment proved that during the experiment in virtual reality the Operation error rate changes in dependence on the change of control panel arrangement; the influence of stimuli has not been proved.

Czech abstract

Návrh ovládacích panelů s ohledem na spolehlivost operátorů se stala klíčovým aspektem projektování technologií. Vzhledem k vysokým nákladům na plnohodnotné experimenty lidské spolehlivosti se v poslední době začaly využívat systémy virtuální reality. Tento článek se zabývá experimentálním hodnocením spolehlivosti zaměstnanců (chybovost) pracujících na velínu ve virtuální realitě při testování designu ovládacího panelu.
